Glutamatergic Modulation of Cocaine-related Deficits

16. april 2019 opdateret af: Elias Dakwar, New York State Psychiatric Institute

The Effect of Ketamine on Reducing Cue Reactivity in Cocaine Users

Cocaine dependence involves problematic neuroadaptations, such as heightened reactivity to cocaine cues, that may be responsive to pharmacological modulation of glutamatergic circuits. Despite promising preclinical findings with n-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAr) modulators, studies with human subjects have been unsuccessful to date. The purpose of this investigation is to examine the effects of the NMDAr antagonist ketamine, recently found to have potent therapeutic effects in humans, on cue-induced craving and impaired motivation for quitting cocaine in cocaine dependent participants, 24-hours post-infusion.

Studieoversigt

Detaljeret beskrivelse

In this study, volunteers will undergo a 9 day inpatient trial during which they will receive three counter-balanced infusions (two doses of ketamine and a dose of lorazepam) on three separate days in a within-subject, double-blind, controlled design. Of the various glutamate antagonists available for human use, ketamine will be utilized because its safety profile, pharmacokinetics, and range of tolerable sub-anesthetic dosings have been very well studied. Also, ketamine has shown promise in managing opiate and alcohol use disorders in certain studies, and may therefore be the most likely glutamate antagonist to dampen cue reactivity and increase motivation in cocaine users. If ketamine significantly improves these deficits, this would suggest that the drug should be investigated further for potential utility as a treatment for cocaine dependence.

  5. Normal body weight
  6. Responsive to drug cues
  7. Capacity to consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Seeking treatment or abstinence
  2. DSM IV criteria for substance dependence (other than methamphetamine, cocaine, cannabis, or nicotine), or DSM IV criteria for abuse of ketamine or lorazepam
  3. DSM-IV criteria for other Axis I psychiatric illness that may make participation hazardous such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, psychosis NOS, MDD, psychosis secondary to substances, or bipolar disorder
  4. Delirium, Dementia, Amnesia, Cognitive Disorders, or dissociative disorders
  5. Current suicide risk or a history of suicide attempt within the past 2 years

  7. Pregnancy, nursing, or had a baby within the past 6 mo.
  8. Heart disease as indicated by history, abnormal ECG, previous cardiac surgery.
  9. Unstable physical disorders which might make participation hazardous such as end-stage AIDS, hypertension (>140/90), anemia, active hepatitis or other liver disease, or diabetes

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Change in Cue Reactivity
Tidsramme: Baseline and 24 hours after infusion
Serial visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for craving elicited by cocaine cue: units on a scale (0-200), high is worse. Scores are obtained at baseline and at 24 hours after the infusion.
Baseline and 24 hours after infusion
Change in Motivation to Quit
Tidsramme: Baseline and 24 hours post-infusion
Motivation score obtained from the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment (URICA). Scores are obtained at baseline and at 24 hours after each infusion. The scores are 0-13, with higher scores indicating greater motivation. The analysis is within-subject. Scores included below are means; higher scores represent higher motivation to quit than do lower scores.
Baseline and 24 hours post-infusion
