With the proposed study we aim to gain insight into the effects of oxytocin (OT) on both parents* and grandparents* sensitive, empathic, and protective responses to their (grand)children, and in the neural origins of these responses.The primary…
Our primary aims are 1) to test with observational and electrophysiological techniques whether intranasal oxytocin administration to mothers of young infants increases their defensive reactivity and protective approach responses in mildly…
To evaluate the effects of long-term intranasal oxytocin on social behaviour in children with PWS and to compare the effects of different doses and frequencies of oxytocin administration
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of abicipar (2 mg), compared to 0.5 mg ranibizumab in treatment-naïve patients with neovascular AMD.
Primary: to assess the bioequivalence of LH after administration of the freeze-dried (FD) Luveris formulation (Reference) versus the liquid formulation of Luveris in the pre-filled pen (Test) based on the PK parameters AUC0-t and Cmax of serum LH.…
Primary: To demonstrate that intravitreal injection of 0.5 mg ranibizumab administered based on individual patient needs has superior efficacy compared to sham treatment in adult patients with visual impairment due to VEGF-driven ME. Secondary: Best…
To evaluate the effects of intranasal oxytocin compared to placebo administration on appetite, satiety and food intake.Also effects on social behavior, BMI, body composition, IGF-I levels and genetic differences (deletion / mUPD). To assess oxytocin…
Our study aims at investigating whether male adults with ASD differ from healthy male adults in their neurophysiological responses to positive and negative empathy-evoking pictures when taking oxytocin intranasally once. To this end we will compare…
Primary objective:To demonstrate that an individualized stabilization-criteria-driven PRN dosingregimen (PRN) with 0.5-mg ranibizumab administered with or without adjunctive lasertreatment has superior efficacy as compared to the current standard of…
Objective: This study hypothesizes that an oxytocin inhalation will increase prosocial behavior and reduces social anxiety during social interaction specifically in patients with SAD in comparison to a clinical and healthy control group
In this study we will assess these prosocial effects in an objective way i.e. by means of computer tasks and we will investigate the role of two potential mediators and the role of a genotype variant in the mechanism underlying prosocial behavior.…
- to assess the effects of intranasal administration of oxytocin in comparison to placebo on trust, as measured by the behavioural response to the Trust game- to assess the effects of intranasal administration of oxytocin in comparison to placebo on…
Primary objective:To demonstrate that the mean change from baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) over a 12 month treatment period obtained with either a 0.5 mg ranibizumab *Treat and Extend* (TE) dosing regimen with adjunctive laser, and/…
In this study neural responses to infant crying will be measured with fMRI. In addition, the neural base of emotion understanding will be examined with fMRI. Participants will look at pictures of adults and infant and they have to infer the mental…
To study whether the administration of oxytocin leads to stronger empathic responses on 3 different empathy-related tasks compared to a placebo.
Primary objectiveto demonstrate superiority of ranibizumab 0.5 mg as adjunctive or mono-therapy to laser treatment in the mean change from baseline in BCVA over a 12-month treatment period.Secondary objectives* to evaluate whether ranibizumab (0.5…
Primary objectiveTo assess the efficacy of intravitreally (ITV) administered VEGF Trap-Eye compared to ranibizumab (in a non-inferiority paradigm) in preventing moderate vision loss in subjects with all subtypes of neovascular AMD Secondary…
Primary objective* To evaluate ocular and non-ocular adverse events during the 24-months study period in patients treated with Lucentis (0.5 mg)Secondary objectives* To describe the ocular and non-ocular adverse events over a cumulative 36-months…
The proposed study has two objectives. First, we will examine the neural mechanisms of aversive responding to infant cries in healthy female subjects. We will compare participants who showed high cardiovascular responses to infant cries with…
This proposal centers on hormone-behavior dynamics in paternal caregiving, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the development of human paternal caregiving. There is limited information on the hormonal basis of caregiving patterns in…
