RCT (04) Trial Summary

This trial will show the benefits of reducing cocaine use, rather than quitting entirely. The data will be used to change the accepted treatment goals for cocaine addiction, making it easier to find effective therapies.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are seeking treatment for moderate to severe cocaine use disorder, have used cocaine recently (confirmed by a urine test), and can commit to a 12-week intervention with a 24-week follow-up. It's not suitable for those with poor vein access, current serious physical or psychiatric conditions, or a history of severe substance use disorders.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing 'Contingency Management', which rewards patients for reducing their cocaine use. The goal is to understand the positive changes in behavior and health that come from cutting down on cocaine. This could help create better treatment goals and speed up finding new therapies.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on behavioral therapy rather than medication, traditional side effects associated with drugs aren't expected. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to changing their drug-use habits.
