trial item 291 - findings summary week starting 20/02/20XX
we have now administered drug 5 to the subject. it's not clear if there are any meaningful changes to the subject's cognition as of yet. they seem more docile, generally slower to react to stimuli, yet still maintain much of the thought patterns from before just at a slower rate. in combination with drug 4, which we saw marked improvements to executive function with, there were no immediate side effects observed. it did, however, counter the speeding up of thought patterns seen with drug 4 over the short term.
subject thought patterns still remain destructive, focusing primarily on self-mutilation, self-hatred, and a longing for a supposed "release".
unlike previous drugs, once we gave the subject the inhibitor to calm them down it appears that it was ineffective at a regular dose. increasing the dosage worked, but the subject appears to have developed a dependence on the inhibitor. it is unclear if this is due to drug 5 or if it is due to long term exposure and ingestion of the inhibitor. more testing required.
next steps:
- cease drugs 4 and 5
- observe dependence on inhibitor
reminder: at any sign of the subject presenting danger to either themselves or any member of the clinical trial team, apply physical restraints immediately and force ingestion of inhibitor.
