Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change from Baseline in Glumatate concentrations (mM) at 8 Weeks | baseline and 8 weeks | Glumatate concentrations (mM) are measured by magnetic resonance spectrocopy in left hippocampal formation |
| Secondary | Change in left hippocampal formation volumes (mm^3) measured on MRI 3D T1w sequence | baseline and 8 weeks | |
| Secondary | Change in right amygdala volumes (mm^3) measured on MRI 3D T1w sequence | baseline and 8 weeks | |
| Secondary | Change in posterior cingulate volumes (mm^3) measured on MRI 3D T1w sequence | baseline and 8 weeks | |
| Secondary | Chang in overall brain volume measured on MRI 3D T1w sequence | baseline and 8 weeks | |
| Secondary | Change in score the Feeling of knowing task (FOK task) | baseline and 8 weks | FOK task for episodic memory performance includes 4 distincts steps : (1) a learning phase of a 60 pairs of words, (2) a cued recall phase (number of correct recalls /60 ; number of incorrect recalls /60), (3) feeling of knowing phase, (4) recognition phase (number of correct recognition /60 ; number of incorrect recognition /60) |
| Secondary | Change in score of the Trail Making Test (TMT) | baseline and 8 weeks | TMT consists of two parts. In the first part (A), the subject must connect with a pen in the correct order 25 numbers from 1 to 25, which are distributed randomly. In the second part (B), the subject must connect with a pencil in the correct order an alternation of 13 numbers from 1 to 13 and 12 letters from A to L, which are also distributed randomly. The time in seconds to complete each part is measured. |
| Secondary | Change in score of Stroop test | baseline and 8 weeks | The test includes 3 phases. In each one, participant have to give maximum of correct answer. Score ranges from 0 to 100 for each phase |
| Secondary | Change in score of N-Back test | Baseline and at 8 weeks | Number of correct answer (yes or no). Total score /23 |
| Secondary | Change in score of attentional network test (ANT) | baseline and 8 weeks | Test (ANT) is a computerized testing measure that analyses the three components of attention network : alerting, orienting, executive control. Each of these three attention components is measured in time. |
