Active clinical trials for "Cocaine-Related Disorders"

The proposed protocol is a multi-site double-blind, placebo-controlled outpatient study of the safety and efficacy of Adderall-XR (MAS-ER) and topiramate in the treatment of cocaine dependence. 198 patients will be enrolled and 176 patients randomized in a 14-week trial. The proportion of participants achieving sustained cocaine abstinence for three consecutive weeks at the end of the study will be significantly greater for the combined pharmacotherapies group compared to the placebo group.

The purpose of this study is to assess potential interactions between intravenous (i.v.) cocaine and atomoxetine (Strattera) administered orally in four escalating doses.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the administration of Risperidal-Consta on the brain's reward circuitry using Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI), behavioral tests and measuring cocaine craving and use among people with active cocaine dependence.

Despite the many behavioral and cognitive treatment therapies that exist for cocaine addiction, individuals who complete cocaine abuse treatment are still at high risk for relapsing. Aripiprazole, a medication that is currently used to treat schizophrenia, may be useful in preventing drug relapse in individuals addicted to cocaine. This three-part study will evaluate the interaction between aripiprazole and cocaine. It will also determine the safety and effectiveness of aripiprazole in preventing drug relapse among cocaine addicts.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether long-term exposure to the Therapeutic Workplace intervention could sustain drug abstinence over an extended period of time in heroin- and cocaine-dependent, unemployed, treatment-resistant young mothers.

Cocaine dependence is a major public health problem; an effective primary treatment for cocaine dependent individuals has yet to be found. The purpose of this study is to identify subpopulations and baseline conditions that are most responsive to treatment for cocaine dependent individuals.

Cocaine addiction is a serious health problem with no available medical treatment for preventing relapse. Modafinil, a medication that enhances mood, increases energy, and improves concentration, may be useful in preventing relapse among individuals with cocaine addiction. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of modafinil, in combination with cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), to prevent drug relapse among cocaine addicts.

Cocaine addiction is a serious health problem with no available medical treatment for preventing relapse. Amantadine, a medication that improves muscle control, and propranolol, a medication that lowers blood pressure, may be useful in treating cocaine addiction in individuals with severe cocaine withdrawal symptoms. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of amantadine and propranolol in preventing drug relapse among cocaine addicts.

Although LAAM, a derivative of methadone, has been successfully used as an alternative to methadone maintenance in opioid addicts, its effect on concurrent opioid and cocaine abuse has not been ascertained. Thus, this study proposes to examine the clinical efficacy of low- and high-dose LAAM maintenance on opioid and cocaine use in opioid-dependent cocaine abusers. In addition, since contingency management procedures have demonstrated some success in decreasing cocaine use in cocaine-abusing individuals, this study also proposes to examine the clinical efficacy of the presence or absence of contingency management procedures targeting illicit drug use.

Recent findings have suggested that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) substantially reduces cocaine drug-seeking behavior in formerly cocaine dependent rats. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and cue reactivity effects of NAC in cocaine dependent individuals and non-dependent healthy controls.
