Study Summary
This trial will compare the NET device to a sham device in treating persons with OUD who want to be abstinent from opioids without MOUD.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with Opioid Use Disorder who want to quit opioids without medication. They must be in good health, not have serious psychiatric conditions like psychosis or bipolar disorder, and women must use effective contraception. It's not for those on certain medications, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people with pacemakers.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The NET Device is being tested to see if it helps people stop using opioids without the help of other medications. Participants are randomly assigned to either get the real device or a sham (fake) one while they try to become opioid-free.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this summary does not provide specific side effects of the NET Device, we can assume that potential side effects might include discomfort at the site of application or placebo-like symptoms due to its nature as a non-medication intervention.
