Groups2
Group 2 names the comparator: placebo.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Oxytocin | Subjects weighing \>40kg will receive a total of 24 IU of oxytocin delivered as 2- 6 IU puffs to each nostril once daily. Subjects weighing \< 40kg will receive a total of 12 IU of oxytocin delivered as 1- 6 IU puff to each nostril daily. Subjects will receive 14 to 21 days of daily oxytocin administration.~Oxytocin: A growing body of data shows that intra-nasal administration of oxytocin has promise for treating a host of psychiatric disorders. Considerable data indicates that oxytocin reduces amygdala response to negative stimuli in patients with generalized anxiety disorder, borderline personality disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Given that one of the potential underlying neurobiological mechanisms of irritability and emotional dysregulation in pediatric population with disruptive behavior and mood disorder is the hyperactivity of amygdala to negative emotional stimuli, and that oxytocin reduces this, it is critical to determine the extent to which this intervention improves irritability and emotional dysregulation in children and adolescents with disruptive behavior and mood disorders. | 0 | 25 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Placebo | Subjects weighing\>40kg will 2 puffs of placebo to each nostril daily. Subjects weighing \<40kg will receive 1 puff per day. Subjects will receive 14-21 days of placebo administration.~Placebo: Inactive substance administered in volume equivalent to volume administered in active treatment arm. | 0 | 27 | EG001 |
