Effects of Pharmacological Stress and rTMS on Executive Function in Opioid Use Disorder (NCT04231708)

Effects of Pharmacological Stress and Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Interventions on Executive Function in Opioid Use Disorder

๐ŸŸก Not Yet Recruiting Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Wayne State University

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This preliminary study is designed to evaluate mechanisms by which excitatory dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) (vs. sham) and pharmacological stress (vs. placebo) alter behavior in non-treatment seeking individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD). Specific Aims are to (1) Evaluate how stress impacts domains of behavior including (1a) executive function and (1b) opioid-seeking behavior; and (2) Determine whether rTMS stimulation attenuates (2a) executive dysfunction, (2b) stress-reactivity, and (2c) opioid-seeking in individuals with OUD not receiving treatment.
