Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the effects of exercise on cocaine use, fitness, and cravings for cocaine and nicotine. This study is part of an effort to develop treatments for cocaine abuse.

Clinical Trial Description

This proposal represents an important research effort with considerable public health significance in that it will provide detailed behavioral and physiological data for a non-pharmacological intervention to treat stimulant addiction. Regular exercise is known to promote better mental and physical health, however the effects of exercise on cocaine use and craving in cocaine-dependent individuals has not been previously assessed. The Specific Aims include: 1) To evaluate the effects of regular exercise (running and walking) versus placebo (sitting) on basic fitness measures; 2) To evaluate the effects of exercise on objective and subjective measures of cocaine and nicotine use and craving. Participants will also receive a total of 12 sessions of a standardized series of computerized cognitive behavioral therapy (CCBT) modules, which are specifically designed for the treatment of cocaine addiction. ;
