Combination of Intranasal Scopolamine and Sensory Augmentation to Mitigate G-transition Induced Motion Sickness and Enhance Sensorimotor Performance

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The primary specific aim is to evaluate the use of intranasal scopolamine gel and sensory augmentation as an integrated countermeasure to mitigate motion sickness and enhance sensorimotor performance. The proposed intranasal scopolamine gel formulation (Defender Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) offers a safe non-invasive method to self-administer with a rapid onset of action. This study involves a comparison of motion sickness outcome measures when administering intranasal scopolamine gel versus placebo (Aim 1a), and then when administering intranasal scopolamine gel versus placebo with a sensory augmentation belt (Aim 1b).

Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. Subjects should be minimally susceptible to provocative motion as evidenced by at least two responses on the Motion Sickness Susceptibility Questionnaire of "Sometimes" or "Frequently."
  2. 2. No participants should have neurologic, vestibular or autonomic disorders, or medical conditions that could be worsened by scopolamine (narrow-angle glaucoma or urinary retention
  3. 3. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) negative test, confirmed by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized COVID-19 test \< 7 days prior to study drug administration or no COVID 19 symptoms up to 10 days prior to study drug administration.
  1. 1. Subjects will be excluded if they are taking other drugs that are capable of causing CNS effects such as antihistamines, tricyclic antidepressants, and muscle relaxants or have hypersensitivity to scopolamine or other belladonna alkaloids or to any ingredient or component in the formulation or delivery system.
  2. 2. Pregnant women are excluded from participation. Women of child-bearing potential will be offered a pregnancy screening test and excluded with a positive test.
