Conditions

Cocaine Use Disorder

Brief summary

Reduced drug use is a clinically meaningful target for treatment development, but few studies have evaluated the positive impacts produced by this behavioral change, preventing adoption of this endpoint in clinical trials. The proposed research will fill that critical knowledge gap by demonstrating the biopsychosocial benefits of reduced cocaine use. These data will be used to change current accepted cocaine treatment endpoints and accelerate identification of therapies for cocaine use disorder.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALContingency Management

Subjects will receive payments for providing cocaine negative urine samples.

Inclusion criteria

* Age 18 or older * Self-report of recent cocaine use verified by a cocaine-positive urine sample * Meet moderate-severe Cocaine Use Disorder Criteria * Seeking treatment for their cocaine use * Able to commit to 12-week intervention, plus 24-week follow up

Exclusion criteria

* History of serious physical or psychiatric disease (e.g., physical dependence on any drug requiring medically managed detoxification, unstable angina, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, aortic stenosis, self-reported compromised immune function, extreme hypersensitivity/allergy to candida yeast or similar products, severe diagnosis for other substance use disorder) that would interfere with study participation * Current physical or psychiatric disease that would interfere with study participation * Poor veinous access, precluding blood draws

Design outcomes

MeasureTime frameDescription
Endothelin-1 LevelsAt baseline.Endothelin-1 levels will be measured. They will be recorded in pg/ml.
Mean Arterial PressureAt baselineMean Arterial Pressure is recorded during participant visits and is recorded in mm Hg

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Hamilton Depression Scale ScoreAt baselineScore on the Hamilton Depression Inventory. Higher scores indicate greater depression symptoms. Minimum = 0, Maximum =56.
Total Sleep TimeAt baselineSleep time the night before in minutes
Reactive Hyperemia IndexAt BaselineMeasure of peripheral arterial tonomotry which assesses peripheral microvascular function through changes in amplitude of pulses in fingertips. Reactive hyperemia index (RHI) is determined by calculating the ratio of hyperemic pressure (RHm) to baseline pressure (BLm) in the measurement and control arms (RHc and BLc respectively) (Rosenberry and Nelson, 2020). This yields a natural log RHI ratio with higher scores indicating worse microvascular function. Being calculated as a natural log, there range is infinite.
Criteria for Cocaine Use Disorder DiagnosisAt BaselineNumber of criteria met on a Structured Clinical Interview as endorsed yes/no on a series of 11 questions on a scale. Range = 0-11. Higher scores indicate greater severity of Cocaine Use Disorder (e.g., more life problems due to cocaine use).
Interleukin-10At baseline.Interleukin-10 levels will be measured throughout subject participation. They will be recorded in pg/ml.
