Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled trial of oral semaglutide among treatment-seeking individuals with AUD. The investigators will randomly assign 50 participants to receive semaglutide (titrated to 7 milligrams (mg) per day) or matched placebo for 8 weeks. The primary aims are to assess the safety and tolerability of semaglutide in this population and to evaluate its effects, relative to placebo, on alcohol cue-elicited craving and alcohol consumption.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if semaglutide, when compared to placebo, is safe and may reduce alcohol drinking in individuals who endorse symptoms consistent with alcohol use disorder.
Study to enroll up to 90 individuals, those with an alcohol use disorder (AUD) (up to n=60) and non-dependent healthy volunteers (HV) (up to n=30). PET/CT imaging will be used to evaluate brain and whole-body inflammation using the investigational radiotracer [18F]NOS. All participants will have one [18F]NOS positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (PET/CT) scan performed.
This is a multi-center, single arm, prospective, open-label, extendable study for the efficacy and safety of dual-target deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant alcohol use disorder.
Considering the results of the Baclorea study (10% reduction in episodes of agitation in intensive care in the Baclofen group), the investigators would like to know whether this reduction in agitation also results in a reduction in the incidence of the syndrome of long-term post-traumatic stress (5 years later). The investigators wish to contact by telephone, blinded from the randomization group as defined in the framework of the Balorea project, by telephone contact, the patients who had been included in the Balorea study between June 2016 and February 2019.
The goal of this study is to evaluate how citicoline, an over-the-counter supplement, versus a placebo pill (i.e., an inactive pill) affects the immune system, brain, and cognition in adolescents who may use alcohol.
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a burdensome clinical disorder with high relapse rates. Virtual Reality (VR)-based therapeutic and diagnostic approaches have received increasing attention in the treatment of AUD but evidence on the induction of craving via VR scenarios is still needed. Craving for alcohol is associated with psychological and physiological responses. This single-arm clinical study will be conducted including n=60 patients with AUD. Using a head-mounted display (HMD), patients will be confronted with three different VR scenarios (neutral vs. two target situations) while heart rate, heart rate variability (HRV), pupillometry and electrodermal activity (EDA) will be measured continuously. Subjective craving levels will be assessed pre-/during/post-exposure to each VR scenario.
Randomized clinical trial of 10 days Cannabidiol versus placebo as an adjunctive treatment during inpatient alcohol detoxification to improve abstinence in patients with severe alcohol use disorder.
This 2-arm study will recruit participants with 1) alcohol use disorder and 2) cannabis use disorder for a 12-week cognitive behavioral therapy, following a thorough baseline assessments on executive function, incentive salience, and negative emotionality.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of screening for liver disease with liver stiffness measurement on abstinence or light consumption after 6 months in individuals who are receiving treatment for alcohol use disorder and without a history of liver disease. The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation comparing A) an invitation to a liver stiffness measurement, blood sampling and leaflet on alcohol-related disease (intervention) with B) an invitation to blood sampling (control). The primary outcome is 'abstinence or light consumption' (≤ 10 units/week) throughout the last months, and assessed 6 months after randomization.
