상세 설명
Over one million American adults suffer from cocaine use disorder (CUD) with recent trends showing an increase in cocaine-related deaths since 2010. For the chronic cocaine user, significant changes in brain function and structure set the stage for relapse that, unfortunately, continues to be the most common outcome following treatment. For substance use disorders, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is arguably the most empirically supported and widely used relapse prevention approach. Considered to be a cognitive control therapy, CBT aims to improve 'top-down' executive control functions that are impaired in CUD and strongly connected to relapse. Converging evidence suggests that CBT promotes meaningful changes in brain regions associated with cognitive control. Still, many patients with cognitive impairments show suboptimal response to CBT, bolstering the call for research aimed at improving effects with integrative treatments.
The goal of this project is to enhance the relapse-prevention effects of CBT with adjunctive use of pioglitazone (PIO), a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist. Unlike traditional medications that target classic neurotransmitter systems, PIO's activation of the PPAR pathway confers broad spectrum anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects against insult to brain white matter (WM). The functional significance of WM in CUD has been well established by evidence showing that: (1) chronic cocaine exposure alters WM structural integrity; (2) WM alterations compromise cognitive function in CUD; and (2) better WM integrity predicts better CUD treatment outcome. In a recent proof of concept trial it was found that PIO significantly improved brain WM integrity in a small sample of non-abstinent patients with CUD. Treatment with PIO was well-tolerated and associated with reduced cocaine craving relative to placebo. Collectively, these findings raise the exciting possibility that PIO may augment responding to CBT via improved neural structure and cognitive function.
A randomized double-blind clinical trial will be utilized to evaluate the efficacy of CBT with adjunctive PIO in recently abstinent patients during the early phase of recovery when craving is prominent, relapse risk is high, and intact cognitive control is required to actively maintain abstinence. Upon completion of a 5-day inpatient detoxification, 60 adults with CUD will complete titration to full dose of randomized medication, either PIO (45mg daily) or placebo, and begin 12 weeks of outpatient CBT treatment while continuing to receive study medication. Specific aims will examine the effects of PIO on targeted mechanisms of change (WM integrity, cognitive function, cocaine craving) and demonstrate evidence linking clinical efficacy (abstinence, functional health) with mechanism engagement. Expected results will establish PIO as an adjunctive treatment that can be integrated with CBT to reduce relapse risk following detoxification, thereby meeting NIDA's strategic priority of evaluating the use of medications to improve the efficacy of behavioral interventions (PA-18-055).

Change in white matter integrity as assessed by change in fractional anisotropy value measured by diffusion tensor imaging
기간: Week 0 and Week 12
|
Anisotropy values range from 0 to 1, where a higher value indicates greater white matter integrity. |
Week 0 and Week 12

Change in white matter integrity as assessed by change in radial diffusivity value measured by diffusion tensor imaging
기간: Week 0 and Week 12
|
Radial diffusivity (RD) values are not bound by specified upper and lower ranges, as the metric is a derivation of two diffusion eigenvalues = ([lambda2 / lambda3] / 2). Higher RD values are indicative of decreased white matter integrity as related to myelin integrity; conversely lower RD scores indicate better white matter integrity. |
