Clinical Trial Summary

EMB-001 is a combination of 2 drugs: the cortisol synthesis inhibitor, metyrapone (Metopirone®), and the benzodiazepine receptor agonist, oxazepam (original trade name Serax®; now marketed as oxazepam (generic) only).

This Phase 1b cocaine interaction study is being conducted in order to assess the safety and PK of EMB-001 and cocaine in combination.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a single center, randomized, double-blinded, multiple-dose, PLB controlled, 2-period, 4-sequence, crossover study design.

After establishing eligibility approximately 16 subjects with cocaine use disorder will be randomized to one of four sequences.

Treatment periods will be separated by a 7-day in-patient washout period. EMB-001/PLB will be orally administered for 7 consecutive days, BID for 6 days (starting on Day 1 and Day 15) followed on the last day (Day 7 and Day 21) by one EMB-001/PLB oral dose in the morning. Infusion of 40 mg IV cocaine and IV saline-to-match cocaine infusion will be administered in a randomized order, 2 hours apart, starting 3 hours after the last morning EMB-001/PLB oral administration.

The subjects will be discharged from the research clinic 2 days after the last dose of cocaine, and will have a follow-up visit 7 days after last dose. ;
