Active clinical trials for "Substance-Related Disorders"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well three types of treatments work to improve the outcomes for people with substance use problems. Veterans admitted to the Charleston VA Psychiatric inpatient unit may be invited to participate. The three types of treatments that will be evaluated are: Combined Recovery Program (CRP), a six-session treatment group delivered on the inpatient unit. A Home Telehealth program, called Stable and Able (S&A), provided just prior to discharge and provides additional support for up to 3 months Treatment-as-usual (TAU), which is the treatment currently provided on the unit, consisting of various mental health topics and sessions designed to help with recovery. Participation begins on the inpatient unit, beginning with CRP and/or TAU, and may continue with S&A post discharge. Participants will be followed up at 1 and 3- months post treatment.

This is a formative research study to test a culturally-centered, program-level implementation intervention to increase the use of medications for opioid use disorder in four healthcare and addiction specialty treatment sites serving American Indian and Alaska Native communities.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Maintaining Independence and Sobriety through Systems Integration, Outreach and Networking - Criminal Justice version (MISSION-CJ) is effective for reducing criminal recidivism and improving other health-related outcomes (substance use, mental health, housing, employment, community integration) among justice-involved, homeless Veterans with a co-occurring substance use and mental health disorder.

The investigators propose an imaging study to investigate the neurobiological effects of CBD (vs placebo) in participants with opioid use disorder who are maintained on methadone. The purpose of the study is to determine the neural circuits and transmitters associated with the effects of CBD on to reduce craving and anxiety. The neuroimaging will be conducted in participants immediately following their first administration of CBD (800mg or placebo) and one week after the last administration (3 daily doses). This CBD administration protocol was shown in previous studies by the investigators to reduce craving and anxiety in abstinent heroin users.

This work will involve conducting a randomized trial that will evaluate preliminary efficacy of "assisted" rate cycling, voluntary rate cycling and psychotherapy for pain individually and in combination as adjunctive treatments on cravings (primary outcome) in adults with an opioid use disorder. The investigators will also evaluate the effects of "assisted" rate cycling, voluntary rate cycling and I-STOP on secondary outcomes including depression, anxiety and sleep.

The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to test the feasibility of a 12-week manualized cognitive-behavioral therapy treatment for opioid use disorder in reducing or stopping illicit opioid use in a community setting. Participants will complete 12 weeks of therapy with a behavioral health counselor and will complete assessments at baseline and 12 weeks. Other outcomes include changes in mood and perceptions of recovery-related support after 12 weeks of therapy.

This study aims to identify the neural, behavioral, and pharmacological mechanisms promoting diminished expression of drug-related memories in human drug addiction. In this fMRI study with a within-subjects placebo-controlled double-blind cross-over design, oral methylphenidate (20 mg) or placebo will be administered to individuals with cocaine use disorders (CUD) to peak during the retrieval of a drug-cue memory before extinction; in addition to fMRI activations, skin conductance responses (SCR, acquired simultaneously) will serve as the psychophysiological indicators of memory modification. Assessments of interference with the return of drug-cue memories via SCR and craving will be conducted the day following MRI. This pharmocologically-enhanced behavioral approach to decreasing drug memories and craving in iCUD could ultimately be used to develop effective cue-exposure therapies for drug addiction. Procedures include MRI, blood draw, questionnaires and interviews, skin conductance response measures, and behavioral tasks.

The overall goal of this project is to collect initial human data on the effects of novel compounds on safety (interactions with an opioid drug, e.g., buprenorphine) and early efficacy signals (subjective effects on negative affect, craving, and opioid withdrawal) in OUD subjects currently in MOUD treatment with buprenorphine.

A PHASE 1, RANDOMIZED, PLACEBO CONTROLLED, MULTIPLE ASCENDING DOSE (MAD) STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY, TOLERABILITY, AND PHARMACOKINETICS OF TMP-301 IN HEALTHY SUBJECTS.

Our purpose is to conduct a 4-arm placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate the relative clinical efficacy of 300 mg. of pure hemp-derived CBD isolate, 300 mg. of full spectrum CBD oil, 300 mg. of broad- spectrum CBD Oil, or Placebo oil among adults presenting with COVID-19 -induced stress reactions including one or more of the following: anxiety, depression, anger, substance use, or sleep disturbance.
