A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Examination of the Effects of Tolcapone (TASMAR) on Vigilance in Healthy Volunteers After Sleep Deprivation

In this study, pharmacologic effects of COMT inhibition during sleep deprivation in healthy subjects in dependence of their Val158Met genotype of COMT are studied. Potential effects are identified by measurement of vigilance and cognitive performance as well as EEG measurements during wake and sleep. - Trial with medicinal product

NCT02080715 Healthy

2 Interventions

Name: Tolcapone

Description: 2 x 100mg Tolcapone compared to placebo (randomized, double-blind, cross-over)

Type: Drug

Tolcapone

Name: Placebo

Type: Drug

Tolcapone


Primary Outcomes

Description: Vigilance is measured subjectively (questionnaires and visual analogue scales) and objectively (e.g., psychomotor vigilance task: reaction times and number of lapses; waking EEG: spectral power) at 3-hour intervals during 40 hours prolonged wakefulness in 30 healthy male adults.

Measure: Evolution of vigilance during prolonged wakefulness after intake of tolcapone when compared to placebo

Time: Participants will be studied during two weeks

Purpose: Treatment

Single Group Assignment
