Brief Summary: Oxytocin (OT) is a small, naturally occurring peptide currently in clinical use to stimulate lactation in breastfeeding women. The intranasal administration of OT has recently attracted attention as a potential novel treatment in several psychiatric disorders in autism. However, given the anatomy of the nasal cavity, the current design of nasal sprays would be expected to provide an inadequate delivery of medication to the areas of the nasal cavity where direct transport into the brain via the olfactory nerve could potentially occur. OptiNose has developed an intranasal delivery device that provides improved reproducibility of nasal delivery, improved deposition to the upper posterior regions of the nasal cavity where the olfactory nerve innervates the nasal cavity.

The primary objective of this study is to identify any differences between a single dose of 8 international units (IU) oxytocin, 24 IU oxytocin, and placebo delivered intranasally with the optimised OptiNose device in volunteers with Autism Spectrum Disorder. This will be measured in terms of performance on cognitive tests and physiological markers.
