Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To show improved clinical efficacy of ketamine in chronic pain in patients with an inflammatory component;Secondary Objective: To explore the anti-inflammatory activity of ketamine through the Kynurenine pathway.;Primary end point(s): Decrease by more than 30% the intensity of neuropathic pain evaluated at the moment on a numerical scale of 10 points at H4. Comparison of groups two by two.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4 hours after infusion | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): NPSI score at H1, H6, J1, J4, J7 Sub score of NPSI; H1, H6, J1, J4, J7 Depression score HADS J0, J1, J7 Painful surface evaluated on cartography H1, H4, J1, J4, J7 Blood tests in pre-administration of Ketamine and H6 after administration of: serotonin (5-HT), kynurenine (KYN), indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) activity (KYN / TRP ratio), kynurenic acid (KA) and quinolinic acid (QA), as well as 3 proinflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-a;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Hours 1 and 4 Day 1 4 and 7 | — |
