Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Velocity of MCA (VMCA)

    Measured in MCA (middle cerebral artery) bilaterally with ultrasound (TCD) (2 Mhz, DWL)

    Change from baseline VMCA at two hours after administration of L-kynurenine

  • The diameter of the STA (superficial temporal artery)

    Measured by high-frequency ultrasound 12 of 29 (Derma Scan C, Cortex Technology, Denmark)

    Change from baseline VMCA at two hours after administration of L-kynurenine

  • Headache

    Headache declared orally on a verbal rating scale (VRS) 0-10. 0 represents no pain and 10 the worst possible headache.

    occurrence of headache undtil 24 hours after infusion.

Interventions

intravenous infusion of L-kynurenine to healthy individuals.

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will share

1\. Using a controlled access approach, using a transparent and robust system to review requests and provide secure data access; 2. seeking consent for sharing IPD from trial participants in all future clinical trials with adequate assurance that patient privacy and confidentiality can be maintained; and 3. Establishing an approach to resource the sharing of IPD which would include support from trial funders, sponsor organisations and users of IPD
