Study Summary

This trial is testing if a glutamate modulator can help with a rapid non-opioid based naltrexone induction, to help prevent opioid use disorders.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-70 with opioid use disorder for at least six months, confirmed by tests. Participants must be in good health as determined by medical exams and lab tests, not on conflicting medications, and interested in naltrexone treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, those with certain psychiatric disorders or unstable physical conditions like severe hypertension or liver disease are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of two glutamate modulators (CI-581-a and CI-581-b) to quickly start patients on extended-release naltrexone without using opioids. It's a randomized controlled trial where participants receive one of the test drugs to see if it helps prevent relapse after detoxification from opioids.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the central nervous system due to glutamate modulation such as headaches, dizziness, or mood changes; gastrointestinal issues; possible liver enzyme elevations; and any known risks associated with naltrexone including nausea and risk of overdose if opioids are used.
