NCT ID: NCT03495414 Completed - Clinical trials for Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Neurobiological Underpinnings to Hypersexual Disorder

Start date: April 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Hypersexual Disorder (HD), sometimes called "sexual addiction", is a disorder with intense sexual desires and psychological preoccupations that lead to out-of-control sexual activities with severe consequences. HD is related to higher risks of HIV infection and an important risk factor for committing sexual crimes. The prevalence of HD is 3-6% of the general population, thus, a significant burden for society. The neurobiological mechanisms behind HD are still unknown, and there is still a great need for causal treatments. This study is aimed at identifying neurobiological and psychological mechanisms underlying HD as a basis for treatment development. The overall goal is to improve mental health, quality of life, diagnosis and treatment options for affected individuals, and to reduce the impact HD can have on society. Patients with HD will be recruited at Karolinska University Hospital in close collaboration between endocrinologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and brain researchers at Karolinska Institutet. Cases and healthy controls will undergo brain scans (MRI), psychological and blood tests to quantify neurobiological, cognitive, and behavioral aspects of HD. This study is directly integrated into clinical practice, can identify important targets for interventions and factors predicting treatment outcomes. This study is essential for a better understanding of HD, the improvement of treatments, and can have significant impact on the prevention of HIV infections and sexual crimes.

NCT ID: NCT02300051 Completed - Clinical trials for Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Start date: February 2011
Phase: N/A

NCT ID: NCT00467558 Completed - Clinical trials for Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Double-Blind Naltrexone in Compulsive Sexual Behavior

Start date: May 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of naltrexone in compulsive sexual behavior. Twenty subjects with DSM-IV compulsive sexual behavior will receive 8 weeks of naltrexone or placebo. The hypothesis to be tested is that naltrexone will be effective in reducing the urges to act out sexually in patients with compulsive sexual behavior. The proposed study will provide needed data on the treatment of a disabling disorder that currently lacks a clearly effective treatment.
