Brief Summary: STUDY DESIGN

Phase IV, proof of concept, interventional, monocentric, randomised, double blind, cross-over study: The effects of a substance P antagonist (Emend) on corticosteroid secretion will be compared to those of a placebo.

STUDY OBJECTIVES

Main objective: to verify that adrenal corticosteroid secretion is actually controlled by substance P.

Secondary objective: to determine the physiological conditions that involve the control of adrenocortical function by tachykinins.

NUMBER OF SUBJECTS

20 healthy volunteers
