NCT06233799
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of extended release naltrexone plus bupropion XL (XR-NTX/BUP-XL) compared to matched injectable and oral placebo (iPLB/oPLB) in reducing methamphetamine (MA) use in individuals with moderate or severe methamphetamine use disorder (MUD) seeking to stop or reduce MA use.
NCT04706624
The investigators propose to develop and evaluate optimal combinations of evidence-based interventions to improve HIV outcomes and reduce methamphetamine use (hereafter: meth use) among people with opioid use disorder who are in methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) in Vietnam. Over the past decade, the expansion of MMT has contributed to stemming both HIV and opioid epidemics. However, rising meth use threatens these achievements. Evidence-based interventions such as Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Contingency Management, Matrix Model, and SMS reminders are effective in reducing meth use. The study will be conducted in the two largest cities in Vietnam, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), where there are the highest number of MMT patients and the highest burden of HIV cases. Building on the pilot work of the research team in Hanoi, through collaborative work with local MMT providers and patients, the investigators will first further refine adapted EBIs to develop adaptive strategies. The adaptive design includes: (1) Two frontline interventions: 6 weeks of contingency management then 6 weeks of weekly group educational sessions and 12 weeks of contingency management; (2) One (short-term) tailoring outcome: urine tests negative with meth metabolites in both week 11 and 12 are considered responsive to frontline interventions; (3) Three alternative interventions: those with positive outcomes will move to 12-week maintenance stage and receive two daily SMS reminders plus one weekly self-monitoring assessment messages. Non-responders will move to 12-week enhanced treatment stage and are randomly assigned to either Matrix group counseling only or Matrix group counseling plus contingency management. The full randomization trial will be conducted with 200 HIV-positive and 400 HIV-negative MMT patients who report moderate- and high-risk meth use on self-screening with ASSIST or have urine positive with meth metabolites. In each location, the study will stratify participants by HIV status before randomizing them to one of two frontline interventions. Primary outcomes - including HIV viral suppression, HIV risk behaviors, and meth use (reported and urine tests) - will be assessed at 12, 24 and 48 weeks. The study team also conducts ethnographic observations and in-depth interviews with MMT clinic managers, clinical staff and MMT patients to explore implementation barriers and facilitators.
NCT06292156
1. To evaluate the cognitive function of methamphetamine Patients. 2. Investigate the pathological mechanism of methamphetamine patients from the aspects of EEG and biology; 3. The investigators investigated the effects of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) on cognitive impairments in methamphetamine patients
NCT04907357
The purpose of the study is to determine feasibility of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for individuals with moderate to severe cocaine or methamphetamine use disorder (CUD/MUD). Potential participants will be age 18-65, and interested in cutting down or stopping use. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups; groups will receive rTMS or sham rTMS (placebo) over the course of an 8-week treatment period, and complete follow-up assessments at the end of treatment, 12, and 16 weeks post-randomization.
NCT05206175
This Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project will examine the technical merit and real-world feasibility of the Affect smartphone application ("app") as the core component of the Affect digital care program for treatment of methamphetamine use disorder (MUD).
NCT05550493
One hundred participants were recruited and randomized into a digital therapeutics (DTx) group (n=52) and a treatment as usual (TAU) group (n=48). The DTx group used a smartphone application to deliver cognitive behavioral therapy, approach bias modification, cognitive training, and contingency management for eight weeks. The TAU group received counseling from social workers and psychoterapists. Cue-induced craving, cognitive functions, PHQ-9, and GAD-7 were measured at baseline and post-intervention.
NCT03864653
This study is a single-arm, non-randomized pilot study. Eligible participants are newly enrolled participants in an outpatient methamphetamine treatment program, and study activities will take place contemporaneously with participation in the service program. During the first two weeks of the treatment program, participants will be offered the chance to enroll in a low-intensity, internet-based depression intervention called MoodGym. Participants that agree to enroll will be offered the chance to attend up to seven MoodGym sessions at the same time they undergo outpatient methamphetamine treatment. It is hypothesized that sexual risk outcomes, as well as medication adherence (e.g., PrEP/PEP; ART) outcomes will be optimized for participants who enroll to receive the MoodGym intervention content.
NCT01822132
The purpose of this protocol is to learn more about impulsive decision making in people who use methamphetamines. The investigators would like to know if a medication called naltrexone changes how people make decisions. The investigators would also like to know whether changes in decision making can be observed by MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). The research is conducted in Portland, OR.
NCT01843205
Methamphetamine use disorders are an unrelenting public health concern. Intensive research efforts have yielded behavioral interventions that reduce methamphetamine use, however, these interventions are not universally effective and treatment effects diminish over time. Development of a pharmacotherapy that enhances the efficacy of these interventions is a priority for the National Institute on Drug Abuse. This study proposes to determine the impact of buspirone maintenance on self-administration of methamphetamine. These preliminary data will be used to support further research developing buspirone as a pharmacotherapy for methamphetamine use disorders. The investigators hypothesize that buspirone will attenuate the reinforcing effects of methamphetamine.
NCT02008526
Participants receive culturally relevant and specifically tailored text messages based on the behavioral change theoretical constructs of Social Support Theory, Health Belief Model, and Social Cognitive Theory. Participants are randomized into one of three conditions for an 8-week intervention period: Group 1: culturally relevant theory-based text messages interactively transmitted by peer health educators (TXT-PHE); or, Group 2: the same culturally relevant theory-based text messages transmitted by automation (TXT-Auto); or, Group 3: assessment-only (AO) control with no theoretically based text messages.
NCT00291512
This project studies the effectiveness of a sexual risk reduction intervention among HIV+ Men who have Sex with Men (MSM) and who use methamphetamine.
