Neurofeedback Based on Near-infrared Spectroscopy as a Therapy for Food Addiction in Obese Subjects.
The hypothesis is that the increase in dlPFC brain activity via near-infrared spectroscopy-based Neurofeedback (fNIRS-based NF) training based on near-infrared spectroscopy would allow an improvement of the eating behavior, thus promoting a long-term weight loss in obese subjects. Patients will be trained during a month with 8 NF sessions and …
Implementation of Two Transdiagnostic Interventions Based on Emotional Regulation (DBT and UP) for Alcohol Addiction
The aim of this study is to evaluate the dissemination and implementation process of two transdiagnostic psychological interventions (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for Substance Use Disorders-DBT-SUD and Unified Protocol-UP) to treat alcohol addiction by mental health practitioners in the Spanish National Health System. The main questions this study aims to answer …
Enhancing Exercise and Psychotherapy to Treat Pain and Addiction in Adults With an Opioid Use Disorder (EXPO; R33 Phase)
This work will involve conducting a randomized trial that will evaluate preliminary efficacy of "assisted" rate cycling, voluntary rate cycling and psychotherapy for pain individually and in combination as adjunctive treatments on cravings (primary outcome) in adults with an opioid use disorder. The investigators will also evaluate the effects of …
Peer Supported Collaborative Care Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Care
This is a research study to assess the effectiveness of a peer-led collaborative care model for integrating treatment for substance use and or mental health disorders into HIV care settings. Depending on whether or not participants enroll in this study, participants will be assigned randomly (by chance, like drawing a …
Long-Term Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder
Poverty and opioid addiction are interrelated and chronic problems which have not been addressed adequately. The Therapeutic Workplace could treat the many adults with opioid use disorder who are unemployed and live in poverty. The Therapeutic Workplace pays participants to work. To promote drug abstinence, the Therapeutic Workplace arranges employment-based …
Advancing VR-based Attentional Bias as a Biomarker for Tobacco Use Disorder
The proposed project will include enrollment of 200 daily tobacco cigarette users, ages 22+, from the San Diego community. Participants will be assessed on the VR Nicotine Cue Exposure paradigm then randomized (stratified on age and sex) to receive varenicline (target dose 1mg twice daily) or placebo (n per group=100; …
Omission of Surgery in Clinically Low-risk HER2positive Breast Cancer With High HER2 Addiction and a Complete Response Following Standard Anti-HER2-based Neoadjuvant Therapy
This is a prospective, single arm, open-label, unicenter, exploratory study in women with primary operable HER2-positive, HER2-enriched/ERBB2-high breast cancer according to PAM50 intrinsic subtype and a ERBB2 pre-defined cutoff (high vs low ERBB2 expression), to evaluate the omission of surgery and sentinel lymph node dissection in patients with HER2-E and …
Targeting Orexin to Treat Nicotine Dependence
Tobacco smoking continues to be the primary cause of preventable mortality in the United States. Despite the availability of smoking cessation aids, the majority of those trying to quit smoking end up relapsing. Thus, there is a strong need to evaluate alternative treatment targets such as orexin antagonists, which have …
IV Pulsed-Nicotine as a Model of Smoking: The Effects of Dose and Delivery Rate
This project will examine the impact of the nicotine dose and delivery rate on nicotine's abuse potential, versus its potentially beneficial effects on smoking urges and withdrawal. Will use pulsed IV nicotine administration which closely matches nicotine delivery by inhaled tobacco use.
Orexin s Role in the Neurobiology of Substance Use Disorder
Study Description: Despite the availability of pharmacotherapy for some substance use disorders, relapse vulnerability is still a significant issue. This suggests medications with alternative mechanisms of action should be explored to address this unmet need. Substantial preclinical research indicates that orexin antagonism blunts the internally and externally triggered motivation to …
