Decision-making and Risk-taking in Bulimia

Bulimia Nervosa

This trial is a set of four independent experiments involving for each of them functional and structural MRI data acquisition. They aim at investigating decision making mechanisms in bulimia nervosa when participants have to make food or monetary choices under specific conditions that mimic binge eating episodes or kleptomania which are two major symptoms of bulimia nervosa. All experiments are cross sectional studies. Each experiment is subdivided into two parts: a first part without any MRI data acquisition and during which all the tasks are performed. This part aims at making sure that a behavioral effect is observed before starting MRI data acquisition. The second part aims at investigating the neural correlates observed in the first part and additionally, at reproducing the behavioral effects observed in the first part. Therefore the first part may be regarded as an independent study as compared to the second part.

Binge Eating & Birth Control

Bulimia NervosaBinge Eating2 more

This pilot study examines the effect of stabilizing ovarian hormones on eating behaviors and brain activation in women with binge eating (n=15) using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and behavioral tests. This is completed by taking oral contraceptives (birth control) continuously for three months. Prior to medication administration and at the end of treatment, eating behaviors will be measured and fMRI will be conducted in order to examine changes in activation in dopamine-reward pathways that occur with oral contraceptive administration. This will assess changes in brain activation that occur with the stabilization of ovarian hormones.

Effect of a CCK-1R Agonist on Food Intake in Humans

Bulimia

The ultimate aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that the oral cholecystokinin (CCK) agonist GSKI181771X will reduce the size of a binge meal among individuals with Bulimia Nervosa. The study will be conducted in phases. First, an effective dose for reducing food intake, when normal subjects eat normally will be attained. Next, it will be determined whether intake at this dose is reduced in control subjects instructed to eat to capacity. If the dose is still effective compared to placebo, the same dose will be tested in patients with bulimia nervosa.
