This is a cross-sectional, single-center observational study conducted from October 2020 to March 2021 in Ile de France at the infectious disease of CHU Bichat (PrEP and CeGIDD(Free Center for Information, Screening and Diagnosis of Infections by Human Immunodeficiency Viruses, Viral Hepatitis and Sexually Transmitted Infections) consultation). It concerns adult subjects of male or transgender sex, of MSM (men having sex with men) or bi-sexual orientation. The data are collected by self-questionnaire evaluating the consumption of Chemsex (drug use in a sexual context) over the last 12 months, the existence or not of addiction treatment, the history of STIs (sexually transmitted infections) and adherence to PrEP (for subjects taking PrEP) during the last sexual intercourse (ANRS questionnaire, used in the PREVENIR study).
This Phase II Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) project is a clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness random controlled trial (RCT) of DynamiCare Health's innovative smartphone/smart debit card remote digital coaching program, which integrates Contingency Management, Recovery Coaching, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), to address alcohol use disorder (AUD) in 300 adults.
In 2017, structured physical exercise with high intensity was implemented as a part of the treatment program at St. Olav Hospital Clinic of Substance Use and Addiction Medicine. The objective of this study is to examine whether implementing structured physical exercise in the treatment program has implications for patients' physical and mental health and quality of life after completing a 3 month residential treatment program. The results of this study will benefit substance use disorder patients in the future, and may have an impact on further implementation of physical exercise in addiction treatment clinics both nationally and internationally.
Methadone is a very long-acting opiate very difficult to detox from. In Spain there are a lot of methadone dependent people in the aftermath of the heroin epidemic of the 1980s. Many have been dependent for more than 15 years and a number of them have a relatively stable life condition (have work, family, housing, etc.) and a relatively good health condition in comparison with current heroin users. This Phase-II RCT is a collaboration with the Sant Joan Hospital in Reus, Spain. Twenty patients on the methadone maintenance program will be recruited. Patients will be randomized to two groups: One receiving 6 doses of 100 mg of ibogaine; and the other one receiving ascending doses of ibogaine (100-200-300-400-500-600). Methadone use will be interrupted and for both groups ibogaine will be administered when clinical symptoms of opioid withdrawal appear. After an ibogaine dose, when symptoms of opioid withdrawal appear again, half of the methadone dose used last time will be administered. By doing so, methadone doses will be progressively reduced until no withdrawal symptoms appear.
This study is comparing the efficacy of two smoking cessation apps.
This project examines computer-delivered cognitive-behavioral intervention (CBT4CBT) as an adjunct to residential treatment for women with substance use disorders (SUD). The project will conduct a 2-arm randomized clinical trial (RCT) comparing post-discharge relapse rates for treatment as usual (TAU) with access to the CBT4CBT program vs. TAU in a residential sample of women with SUDs.
STRIDE2 is a longitudinal, non-randomized study of individuals living with HIV who are dependent on opioids. This study is funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (R01DA030768, Altice, PI; Taxman & Lawson, Co-PIs) and is being conducted by George Mason University, Yale University, and Howard University.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the CB1R availability is lower in synthetic psychoactive cannabinoid subjects using the most widely available synthetic psychoactive cannabinoids at the time the study is initiated.
Background: Cocaine use disorders (CUD) is a complex brain disorder, involving several brain areas and neurocircuits. Effective treatments for CUD are still needed. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) stimulates non-invasively parts of the brain. Preliminary data suggest that rTMS may help reducing cocaine craving and consumption. Researchers want to learn how the brain and the drug-seeking behavior may change with this treatment. Objectives: To test if rTMS can reduce cocaine craving and use, and also affect several mood, behavioral and cognitive alterations associated with prolonged cocaine use. Eligibility: Healthy, right-handed adults ages 18-65 who do have cocaine use disorder (moderate to severe). Design: This is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study. The study includes three phases: 1) a rTMS continued treatment phase; a rTMS follow-up; and a no rTMS follow-up. Prior to participating, participants will be screened with: - Questionnaires - Medical history - Physical exam - Urine tests - MRI (structural) After being enrolled, baseline behavioral and imaging data will be collected. In particular, participants will undergo: - Questionnaires - Functional MRI During the continued rTMS phase, participants with cocaine use disorder will be randomized to receive real or fake rTMS. Repetitive TMS will be delivered during 10 outpatient treatment days, over 2 weeks (5 days/week). Following this phase, subjects will have 12 follow-up visits (once/weekly), during which they will receive rTMS, and behavioral and imaging assessments will be performed. At the end of the rTMS follow up period, participants will further receive 3 follow up visits (once a month), during which rTMS will not be performed, but behavioral data will be collected. Treatment includes: - rTMS: A coil is placed on the head. A brief electrical current passes through the coil. At each visit, participants will receive two rTMS sessions, with a 1hr interval between sessions. At the beginning of each rTMS session, they view cocaine-related images for few minutes. - MRIs at baseline and at follow-up visit #12: Participants lie on a table that slides into a cylinder that takes pictures of the brain. They respond to images while in the scanner. - Repeat of screening tests and questionnaires - Urine toxicological screen
