Filter by:The objective of this study is to evaluate whether tAN via the tragus (vagal) and auriculotemporal (trigeminal) nerve pathways results in a clinically meaningful reduction in opioid withdrawal symptoms.
This Phase 1b/2 inpatient study assessed the safety, pharmacokinetics, and early signs of efficacy of escalating doses of BXCL501 versus placebo following discontinuation of morphine maintenance. The opioid (morphine) maintenance phase (Phase 1b) included Days 1-5; the randomized BXCL501/placebo phase (Phase 2) included Days 6-12. The randomized phase was followed by 2 sequential days, Days 13 and 14, utilizing treatment of BXCL501-placebo sublingual films and morphine-placebo capsules for all subjects who remained in the study.
Withdrawal from opioids and sedatives administered for medical purposes (i.e. iatrogenic withdrawal) often goes unrecognized in the critically ill, but its prevalence is high. Reports describing what is being implemented at the bedside to prevent iatrogenic withdrawal are lacking, and how patients are monitored and assessed for withdrawal has not been adequately studied. Therefore, the investigators overall objective is to determine the current analgesia and sedation weaning practices in adult ICUs. In order to accomplish this objective the investigators plan to conduct a prospective, observational, point prevalence trial. Data from this project will help support future investigation of iatrogenic withdrawal.
Up to date, no approved medications are available for the treatment of methamphetamine addiction. Recently, N-acetylcysteine is recently being studied for methamphetamine withdrawal. N-acetylcysteine, is a drug that has been long used as a mucolytic. Recent studies investigate the use of N-acetylcysteine in cocaine and withdrawal symptoms by its effect on restoring glutamate homeostasis in nucleus accumbens. Up to date, there has been 2 pilot study investigating the efficacy of N-acetylcysteine for methamphetamine dependence. The present study is aimed to confirm the efficacy and safety of N-acetylcysteine in the treatment of methamphetamine withdrawal symptoms.
This qualitative longitudinal study is designed to elicit and thematically analyze the perspectives of SIMPLIFY subjects about treatment withdrawal research and treatment burden in the context of triple combination CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) modulator therapy (TCT). Cohorts will be determined based on sub-groups of the assigned treatment arms from the SIMPLIFY study. Participants will be asked to participate in two interviews; the first interview will be conducted at the completion of the SIMPLIFY study and the second interview will be conducted approximately 4 months after the first interview. Trained research staff will conduct the semi-structured interviews that will be audio-recorded and transcribed for thematic analysis. Each interview should last between 30-60 minutes.
Randomized pilot trial comparing scheduled morphine dosing with a weaning protocol to intermittent morphine dosing on an as-needed basis for newborns with neonatal abstinence syndrome.
This pilot study will examine the safety of the cannabinoid cannabidiol (Epidiolex) in a human laboratory model of clinically relevant withdrawal. The study will be a residential within-subject comparison; all participants will receive placebo dosing and active cannabidiol. Results may be used to support an R01 grant application to more closely examine this hypothesis.
A phase II double-blind placebo-controlled parallel group clinical trial that will randomize 90 subjects to investigate whether pregabalin (PGB) combined with Lofexidine (LFX) can reduce opioid withdrawal-related subjective effects, and investigate, whether the PGB/LFX combination can increase the proportion of patients with an opioid use disorder (OUD) who complete detoxification and transition to antagonist treatment with extended-release injectable naltrexone (XR-NTX).
Clinical performance data for transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) as a method to aid in the reduction of symptoms associated with opioid withdrawal in order to support clinical substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
This study will compare medically-supervised withdrawal (MSW, 'detoxification') to opioid agonist treatment (OAT, 'maintenance') with buprenorphine for pregnant women with opioid use disorder in terms of maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes. Outcomes will be assessed during pregnancy, at birth and for 12 months postpartum. This study has the potential to impact health service policy and practices in terms of the treatment options of pregnant women with opioid use disorder.
