Scientists test new brain drug on healthy people using ketamine

NCT ID NCT03844906

Summary

This early-stage study tested an experimental drug called SAGE-718 in 40 healthy volunteers. Researchers gave participants either SAGE-718 or a placebo, then used a low dose of ketamine to temporarily alter brain activity and measure the drug's effects. The main goals were to check the drug's safety, see how it affects brain signals, and understand how the body processes it.
