Recruiting studies
- NCT05974202Recruiting
Brain stimulation and therapy for cocaine use
This study tests a combination of brain stimulation (rTMS) and talk therapy (CBT) to help people reduce cocaine use. It's for adults who want treatment and use cocaine at least once a week.
New York, New YorkAges 22–65 - NCT00439049Recruiting
Screening for substance-abuse treatment readiness
This study helps check whether people who want help for substance use (like cocaine, opiates, or alcohol) are ready to start a treatment program. It may improve how treatment is matched and started, though you must be able to commit for several months.
Houston, TexasAges 18–60 - NCT02455479RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a vaccine for cocaine dependence
This early-stage study tests how safe an experimental “cocaine vaccine” is and how the body reacts to it. You must also be in behavioral therapy, and the study aims to see whether the vaccine can be given safely to people with cocaine use disorder.
New York, New YorkAges 21–69 - NCT06125054RecruitingPhase 2
Ketamine and brain training for cocaine addiction
This trial tests whether a combination of ketamine (a medicine that may help the brain change) and neurofeedback training (a brain-exercise technique) can help people with cocaine addiction. The goal is to see if these treatments can improve brain flexibility and reduce cravings.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–55 - NCT07318480Recruiting
tDCS for Cocaine Use Disorder
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation method called tDCS can help reduce cocaine use. You would receive several sessions of mild electrical current applied to your scalp, which may help control cravings and improve your ability to stay abstinent.
New York, New YorkAges 18–60 - NCT06189690Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for cocaine addiction
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF rTMS) can help reduce cocaine cravings and change brain chemistry. It may be a good option if you have cocaine use disorder and want to explore a new treatment that doesn't involve medication.
Mexico City, TlalpanAges 18–50 - NCT06701487Recruiting
Brain learning mechanisms and substance use control
This study looks at how certain learning mechanisms in the brain (called Pavlovian conditioning) influence your ability to control alcohol or drug use. It may help explain why some people have trouble stopping, and could lead to better treatments. You'll fill out questionnaires and likely have a brain scan (MRI).
DresdenAges 18–65 - NCT07313371RecruitingPhase 4
Clonidine for reducing cravings in cocaine and crack users
This trial tests whether the medication clonidine can help reduce cravings for people hospitalized with cocaine or crack use disorder. You must be staying in a specific hospital ward and be able to take pills by mouth.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–65 - NCT04927143Recruiting
Using phone incentives to support substance abstinence
This study tests a smartphone app that gives changing rewards to help people avoid drug use. It targets adults in substance treatment and tries to see if incentives can improve abstinence during treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cocaine dependence?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9 recruiting cocaine dependence studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cocaine dependence trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cocaine dependence trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
