      Breakthrough Medication

      Diclofenac for Alcohol Use Disorder

      Catonsville, Maryland
      The development of efficacious medications for AUD remains a high research priority with current emphases on identifying novel molecular targets and efficiently screening new compounds. Pharmacological modulation of the kynurenine pathway (KP) represents a promising novel target for AUD. The KP is a complex enzymatic cascade with each step producing biologically active metabolites that are critically involved in diverse physiological and pathological processes. Chronic alcohol exposure produces dysregulation of the KP, particularly as evidenced by decreased levels of the neuroprotective metabolite kynurenic acid (KYNA) and increased levels of the neurotoxic metabolite quinolinic acid (QUIN). This metabolic shift is associated with various alcohol-related pathologies in animals and humans. Thus, a medication that targets the KP to restore KYNA and attenuate QUIN levels may be an effective treatment for AUD. The enzyme kynurenine 3- monooxygenase (KMO) is a major gatekeeper of the KP and resultant KYNA levels. KMO inhibition shifts the KP towards KYNA production in brain and away from QUIN production. Critically, KMO inhibition in rodents, through its increase in brain KYNA levels, decreases alcohol self-administration, preference, cue-reactivity, and relapse behaviors. However, KMO-inhibitors have not been tested in humans because of presumed lack of availability. Diclofenac is an FDA-approved Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug that was recently discovered to inhibit KMO activity. Consistent with KMO inhibition, diclofenac increases KYNA levels in the brain and periphery of rodents. However, it remains unknown whether diclofenac increases KYNA levels and affects alcohol-related behaviors in humans at approved, safe dosages. Investigators propose to conduct a human laboratory pilot study to test whether diclofenac can increase KYNA in individuals with AUD, and if so, which of 3 doses (50, 75, or 100 mg) most effectively increases KYNA. Individuals with AUD (n = 24) will complete four sessions where they receive diclofenac (50, 75, or 100 mg) or placebo. Investigators will examine increases in KYA levels and will also assess QUIN levels, alcohol craving, and negative mood.

      Environmental Enrichment for Alcoholism

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic disease that causes more than 140,000 US deaths each year. AUD treatment often includes therapy and medication. Some people with AUD may also benefit from behavioral and lifestyle changes. Objective: To evaluate the effects of different activities and environments on drinking behaviors and mental health in people with AUD. Eligibility: People aged 21 years and older with AUD. Design: Participants will have up to 10 study visits in Baltimore. Participants will have a baseline visit. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have a breath test for alcohol and a test that measures body composition. They will answer questions about their alcohol and substance use; mental and physical health; mood and anxiety; and sleep quality. Participants will download an app called MetricWire. The app will send 3 sets of questions to be answered at different times throughout the day. The study visits will include 2 stages: 1. Active stage. On these visits, participants will use a virtual reality system called the Meta Quest Pro (MQP) as they choose. Then they may choose among video games, puzzles, books, crafts, and other activities.. These sessions will last for 3 hours. 2. Passive stage. On these visits, participants will watch videos selected by the research team. These sessions will last for 3 hours. On the last visit of each stage, participants will sit in a room that looks like a bar. They will answer questions about their cravings, their urge to drink, and how many drinks they would buy. Participants will be served 1 drink containing alcohol. They will be asked about their cravings and subjective effects of alcohol after drinking it.

      Spironolactone for Alcoholism

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) affects about 29.5 million people in the United States. Only 3 medicines have been approved by Food and Drug Administration to treat AUD. Researchers want to find better treatments for AUD. Animal studies found that a medicine called spironolactone, may decrease the amount of alcohol the animals drank. Spironolactone is approved to treat high blood pressure, or heart failure in people. It is not approved to treat AUD. Objective: To test a medicine (spironolactone) in people who sometimes drink excessive alcohol in order to understand how the body breaks down spironolactone and if there are any side effects in people who drink alcohol while taking this medicine. Eligibility: People aged 21 and older with AUD. Design: Participants will have 4 separate 7-day stays at a clinic in Baltimore over 2 months. Spironolactone is a capsule you swallow. Participants will take a capsule twice a day for 5 days during each clinic stay. During 1 of their 4 stays, they will take a placebo instead of the medicine. The placebo capsule looks just like the spironolactone capsule but contains no medicine. Participants will not know when they are taking the medicine or the placebo. Participants will not drink alcohol until day 6 of each clinic stay. Then they will be asked to drink alcohol in a bar-like area in the clinic. Their breath and blood alcohol levels and their well-being will be measured. Participants will undergo other tests in the clinic: A DEXA (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) scan uses X-rays to measure bone density and muscle mass. Participants will lie on an open-top, padded table, then a small arm will scan the full length of their body. The radiation participants will get in this study is about the same as from one regular x-ray. Blood tests. Participants may feel some discomfort at the site of needle entry. Electrocardiogram. This test records the heart activity. Sensors are attached to the skin with stickers and removed after a few minutes. Urine tests. All urine will be collected over a 3-day period during each stay. We will measure the amount of urine, and different hormones and salts in the urine. Questionnaires and tasks. Participants will answer questions about their alcohol use. They will perform tasks to test mood, craving, mental and physical coordination, and how much they feel an effect from alcohol after drinking.

      Web-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Alcoholism

      Richmond, Virginia
      Alcohol use and misuse are prevalent in the United States. Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is the most common substance use disorder. Evidence-based treatments are effective; however, most people with AUD do not receive treatment, and among those who do, responses to treatment modalities vary. Technology provides the opportunity to expand treatment and improve outcomes. Therefore, the overall goal of this project is to incorporate neurofunctional phenotyping into a preliminary investigation of the feasibility of providing mobile CBT4CBT for AUD among a non-treatment seeking population

      Integrated AUD Treatment for Alcoholic Hepatitis

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Given the severe consequences of alcohol relapse following liver transplantation for alcoholic hepatitis (AH-LT), it is critical to accurately identify alcohol use and implement alcohol interventions early in the post-transplant period to optimize patient outcomes. The proposed randomized clinical trial will examine the implementation and effects of integrated, person- and computer-delivered alcohol treatment compared to standard care on alcohol use (assessed by self-report and biomarker), mood, quality of life and survival following AH-LT. Predictors of 12-month post-transplant alcohol outcomes will be explored to allow future improved tailoring and targeting of these treatments.

      Transcranial Stimulation for Alcoholism

      Baltimore, Maryland
      The goal of this observational and interventional study is to better understand the involvement of the cerebellum in the brain reward system in persons with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the nature of cerebellar input to the ventral tegmental area (VTA) in the brain reward system, and how is it perturbed in AUD? 2. What is the relationship between measures of cerebellar integrity and magnitude of reward activation to alcohol-related cues in cerebellar, VTA and other brain reward structures? 3. What is the therapeutic potential of cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for modulating alcohol cue reactivity, associated alcohol craving, and cerebellar - VTA functional connectivity in the brain reward system? Persons with AUD will be compared with healthy control participants.

      Cannabidiol for Alcoholism

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Cannabidiol (CBD), one of the most prevalent cannabinoids in cannabis (marijuana) has been shown to reduce alcohol withdrawal symptoms in laboratory animals. In people without alcohol use disorder (AUD), CBD has been show to be effective in reducing anxiety, sleep problems, and seizures; all of these are common symptoms of alcohol withdrawal. This randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial will evaluate the potential of CBD to improve alcohol withdrawal symptoms and reduce craving during acute abstinence among individuals with moderate-to-severe AUD. Adult participants with moderate-to-severe AUD will be admitted to an inpatient research unit at the Johns Hopkins Hospital for a 5-day, 4-night stay that includes alcohol abstinence with management of their alcohol withdrawal. In addition to standard care, participants will receive CBD or placebo (no CBD), complete assessments of withdrawal, sleep quality and provide breath and blood samples.

      Semaglutide for Alcoholism

      Baltimore, Maryland
      Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a problematic pattern of alcohol use accompanied by clinically significant medical consequences. Medications can help most people reduce their drinking, but the number is limited, and additional treatment options are needed. Objective: To test if a medication named Semaglutide is safe and may reduce alcohol drinking in people with AUD. Who can participate? All Adults aged 18 or older with AUD might be eligible to participate in the study. What will happen during the study? Participants will visit the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) in Baltimore once a week for about 20 weeks (5 months). Each visit will last between 2 and 6 hours depending on the tasks scheduled for that visit. Participants will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to receive either Semaglutide or placebo. A placebo looks just like a real drug but contains no medicine. The study medication is given as a shot under the skin each week. Participants will undergo different tests throughout the study: They will give blood, urine, and saliva samples. They will engage in self-paced behavioral therapy on a computer. They will answer questions about their mood, diet, alcohol drinking and craving, tobacco use, etc. They will taste several sweet liquids and tell their preferences. They will sit in a bar-like room and be exposed to cues that might make them feel the urge to eat food or drink alcohol. They will wear a virtual reality headset that creates a cafeteria setting. They will walk the virtual cafeteria and choose food and drinks from a buffet. They will have a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan to take pictures of their brain. During the scans, participants will be shown pictures of alcohol-containing drinks, food, and other items.They will perform tasks on a computer screen. Participants will have a follow-up visit about 7 weeks after their last shot.

      Brain Stimulation for Alcohol Misuse

      Chapel Hill, North Carolina
      The goal of this study is to learn whether a single non-invasive brain stimulation alpha-transcranial alternating current stimulation (alpha-tACS) session changes measures of excitability in the prefrontal cortex. It will also learn whether these changes predict differences in habitual action selection in a laboratory task and whether the effects depend on alcohol use history. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does alpha-tACS reduce habitual action selection by reducing excitability in the prefrontal cortex? Is alpha-tACS most effective in reducing habitual action selection in hazardous drinkers who engaged in binge-drinking during adolescence? Researchers will compare alpha-tACS to sham stimulation to see if alpha-tACS changes habitual action selection by changing prefrontal excitability. Participants will: Visit the lab for behavioral training Visit the imaging center for an MRI session Visit the lab to receive alpha-tACS or sham stimulation during behavioral testing and undergo EEG recordings before and after stimulation Visit the imaging center for a repeat MRI session Provide a small sample of blood from a finger-prick in the first and last visits.

      Telehealth Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Alcohol Abuse with Cardiovascular Risk

      Durham, North Carolina
      The primary objective of this project is to refine a cognitive-behavioral intervention for comorbid alcohol misuse and modifiable CVD risk with diverse stakeholder input, so that the intervention can be deployed within existing VA systems. The intervention will deliver telehealth CBT for alcohol misuse, tailored and timely text messages facilitating clinical traction with CVD risk reduction, and a telehealth coaching call to transition focus of treatment targets. The primary hypotheses of this study are that the developed intervention will be feasible to deliver, acceptable to Veterans and clinicians, and show signs of reducing alcohol misuse and increasing behaviors associated with cardiovascular health.

      THRiVE Program for Mental Health in Veterans

      Durham, North Carolina
      The objective of this study is to develop and pilot a program designed to improve mental health outcomes and reduce suicide risk during the transition from military to civilian life. It is hypothesized that the Transition Health and Resilience through Valued Experiences (THRiVE) program, to be developed as part of this study, will meet participant recruitment, retention, and satisfaction benchmarks (primary outcomes) and show positive preliminary effects on mental health symptoms, risk factors for suicidal ideation, and psychosocial functioning outcomes (secondary outcomes). The specific aims of this study are to: 1. Develop a small-group, peer-led, cross-cutting prevention program for newly separated veterans (NSVs) called THRiVE and 2. Evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of the THRiVE program on mental health symptoms, risk factors for suicidal ideation, and psychosocial functioning outcomes. Up to 40 NSVs participating in this Stage 1 pilot study will complete validated self-report measures at baseline, immediately after completing the THRiVE program (post-THRiVE), and 3 months after completing the THRiVE program (follow-up). The duration of a participant's time in the study is anticipated to be 5 months.

      Disulfiram for Retinal Degeneration

      Rochester, New York
      Oral disulfiram (Antabuse®) has been shown to improve image-forming vision in animal models with retinal degeneration due to its ability to decrease Retinoic Acid synthesis and consequently reduce hyperactivity in the inner retina. The investigator will aim to evaluate the impact of oral disulfiram on the vision of patients with retinal degeneration who are being treated with the drug in the management of their concurrent alcohol use disorder.

      iTBS for Alcoholism

      Wernersville, Pennsylvania
      The two primary objectives of this study are to test whether intermittent theta-burst (iTBS) can affect behavioral change as compared to treatment as usual (TAU, sham) in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) in inpatient substance use treatment. The secondary objective is to determine whether iTBS reduces the risk for relapse at four months compared to sham. It is hypothesized that individuals who receive iTBS treatment will show attenuated prefrontal cortex (PFC) CNS responses to alcohol related cues and reductions in risk-taking behavior and impulsivity as measured by PFC responses measured by functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRs). The proposed approach will be to measure the effect of iTBS treatment on PFC CNS response. Participants will be randomized to receive 5 days (4 x sessions/day x 600 pulses/session = 12,000 pulses) of iTBS or sham to the left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) while being exposed to alcohol cues five minutes prior to treatment and during treatment. The investigators will target the Beam/F3 scalp location and use the TMS Navigator Research Premium stereotaxic system for neuronavigation. PFC response data will be gathered using fNIRs measuring cue reactivity, risk-taking (Balloon Analog Risk Test), and impulsiveness (Go No Go task). The primary outcomes will be the mean changes in pre-post PFC response data gathered using the fNIRs sessions. The rationale for this approach is that TBS can be delivered over a shorter time frame than rTMS and may require fewer sessions, allowing for a better fit within a 28-day inpatient treatment stay.

      CBT-I + Topiramate for Alcoholism

      Coatesville, Pennsylvania
      Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and insomnia are more prevalent in Veterans than in the general community. Furthermore, insomnia is comorbid in 36-91% of individuals with AUD and jeopardizes recovery by increasing their risk for relapse and complicating their clinical profile. The VA/DoD guidelines recommend four medications for the treatment of AUD by promoting abstinence and a reduction in drinking. Two of these medications (MED) used commonly are naltrexone and topiramate but they do not improve sleep continuity or insomnia. The recommended treatment for insomnia is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and it has shown efficacy in improving insomnia but with minimal benefit in improving abstinence. However, these studies have involved subjects in early or sustained remission. The proposed study will evaluate whether augmenting MED with CBT-I, after reducing drinking or achieving abstinence, bolsters recovery in AUD, by decreasing insomnia and improving abstinence. If this strategy shows good clinical results and the findings are replicated in a multi-center trial then the combination of MED with CBT-I should be considered a standard component of the initial management of AUD with insomnia.

      Semaglutide for Alcoholism

      Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
      This clinical trial aims to test the effectiveness and safety of semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, in treating moderate to severe alcohol use disorder (AUD) in Veterans. Participants who qualify will be randomly assigned to receive either semaglutide injections or placebo injections over a 28-week period, followed by a 4-week post-treatment safety assessment period. Participants receiving semaglutide will start with a low dose, gradually increasing to a maximum of 2.4 mg per week, depending on their tolerance. The primary measure of success will be a reduction in risky drinking, assessed through a reliable calendar-based interview method called the Timeline Follow-Back (TLFB), a well-validated calendar-based interview technique for recording daily alcohol consumption. The purpose of this research is to gather information on the effectiveness of semaglutide for treating AUD, potentially offering a new and more appealing treatment option.

      Naltrexone for Alcoholism

      Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
      Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a treatable and common condition encountered in the emergency department, but unfortunately is rarely directly addressed in emergency departments nationwide. To our knowledge, initiation of medication assisted therapy (MAT) for AUD in the emergency department setting has not been widely adopted. Our project is novel for its scope to use a medication well-tested in the outpatient environment and bring it to the emergency department in order to more effectively link patients to outpatient alcohol use reduction therapy as part of a medication assisted therapy (MAT). The investigators are proposing a feasibility project to initiate oral naltrexone to eligible ED patients deemed to have alcohol use disorder and who are interested in cutting down their drinking. The investigators plan to connect these patients with outpatient follow-up in our own community practice center (CPC) for intramuscular (IM) Vivitrol injections under the supervision of the Einstein Toxicology Department. Through the CPC, patients can also be referred to other supporting services such as Alcoholics Anonymous for multidisciplinary care. The investigators are optimistic that this innovative warm hand off from the initial ED visit to outpatient follow-up will ultimately decrease problematic drinking, improve patient's health, and benefit the hospital. Our main objective is to establish a pathway to encourage patients who present to the emergency room with acute sequelae of alcohol use disorder to enter outpatient treatment. Our intervention will be the initiation of oral naltrexone with warm handoff to the Community Practice Center where patients will be transitioned to intramuscular (IM) Vivitrol for chronic maintenance therapy. Thus success will be measured by primarily: percentage of patients who make it to their first outpatient visit for the Vivitrol injection, percentage of patients who continue with treatment and continue to receive Vivitrol for their second injection.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Alcoholism clinical trials pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Alcoholism clinical trials work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Alcoholism trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Alcoholism is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Alcoholism medical study?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Alcoholism clinical trials?

      Most recently, we added Online Support for Alcoholism After Liver Transplant, Social Media Messaging for Alcohol Use Disorder and GLP-1 + Naltrexone for Alcoholism to the Power online platform.
