Lead Sponsor:

Washington University School of Medicine

Conditions:

Neuropathic Pain

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-50 years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

To determine the time-course of plasma and CSF concentrations of intravenous (IV) ondansetron in healthy subjects, with and without selective inhibition of Pgp efflux transporter.

Detailed Description

The study hypothesis is that inhibition of Pgp efflux transporters will increase the CNS bio-distribution of the 5-HT3R antagonist ondansetron. Specifically: 1. Intravenous administration of ondanse...
