Trial summary

The goal of this study is to objectively determine the perceived direction of the right-front by the subjects in weightlessness. The direction of the right-front has not been investigated to date with the measurements of the position of the eyes. Read more about this study

About this study

The goal of this study is to objectively determine the perceived direction of the right-front by the subjects in weightlessness. The direction of the right-front has not been investigated to date with the measurements of the position of the eyes. The investigators will compare the intersection of the horizontal and vertical saccadic trajectories (jerky) with the apparent direction of the right-front indicated by the subjects when they look right front in the dark (LOOK) and that they indicate when they determine whether a visual target through the right-front apparent (PERCEPTION). Then, the investigators will compare these measurements between normal gravity and microgravity hypergravity during parabolic flight.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Parabolic flight and Measurements of eye movements and perception in people with Healthy, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

eye movements (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2015.
