Study Summary

This trial aims to study the effects of a drug called STP7 (mavoglurant) compared to a placebo on how people respond to intravenous cocaine. The study will involve non-t

Who is the study for?
This trial is for males and females aged 18-59 with a history of cocaine use who are not seeking treatment for their cocaine use disorder. Participants must have used cocaine at least six times in the past year, once in the last three months, and be willing to follow study procedures. They should have a BMI between 17.0 to 36.0 kg/m2 and weigh at least 50 kg.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if STP7 (mavoglurant) affects the body's response to intravenous cocaine by monitoring adverse events, heart rate, blood pressure, ECG readings including QT interval, as well as changes in how participants feel after taking cocaine.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to cardiovascular responses such as changes in heart rate or blood pressure from either mavoglurant or cocaine. Other side effects may arise from drug interactions affecting how one feels physically or mentally.

Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: STP7 (mavoglurant) modified release film-coated tabletExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will take STP7 (mavoglurant) twice a day (BID) from Days 3 to 9 according to the following dosing schedule: Day 3: 50 mg BID; Day 4: 100 mg BID; Days 5-9: 200 mg BID, Day 10: 200 mg only the morning dose. Morning STP7 (mavoglurant) doses must be taken within 30 minutes of beginning a meal.
Group II: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants will take matched placebo on a dosing schedule identical to that of STP7 (mavoglurant) and morning doses must be taken within 30 minutes of beginning a meal.
