Study Summary

The main objective of this trail is to investigate if and to what extent BI 409306, BI 425809 and lamotrigine attenuate ketamine induced cognitive deficits.

Primary Outcome

Paired Associate Learning (PAL) assesses visual memory and new learning. Boxes are displayed on the screen and open in turn to reveal a number of patterns. Participants are instructed to try to remember the location in which each pattern was shown. After all the boxes have been opened, each pattern is then shown in the center of the screen in a randomised order, and the participant touches the box in which the pattern was located. If an error is made, all the patterns are re-presented to remind
