NCT ID NCT07409753

First seen Feb 21, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study looks at whether oxytocin, a natural hormone, can change how nerves send pain signals after mild heat. Sixty healthy adults will receive either oxytocin or a placebo through an IV. Researchers will measure nerve activity and pain scores before and after heating a small patch of skin. This is a knowledge-gathering study, not a treatment.
