NCT ID NCT07255092

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study aims to understand how people perceive itch and pain, including the effects of placebo and nocebo. Thirty healthy adults will have small areas of their forearms treated with substances that cause itching, then rate their sensations. The goal is to learn more about the body's itch and pain receptors, not to treat any condition.
