Recruiting studies
- NCT07439549RecruitingPhase 4
Quick-start buprenorphine with naloxone for opioid use disorder
This study tests a faster way to start buprenorphine (a medication for opioid use disorder) by using naloxone to briefly trigger mild withdrawal. This could help people get started on treatment more comfortably and quickly.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT07459166RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug for fentanyl overdose
This study tests a new drug, CS-1103, to see if it can safely help reverse the effects of fentanyl (a strong opioid) even after a naloxone block. Healthy volunteers who have used opioids before will be given fentanyl and then the study drug, while researchers monitor safety and how the drug works.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18–55 - NCT05027919RecruitingPhase 2
Testing ways to predict opioid withdrawal during a taper
This Phase 2 study looks at what opioid withdrawal looks like in the body and whether they can measure it in a meaningful way. You may join if you have an opioid use disorder, can show physical dependence, and are interested in tapering (gradually reducing) opioids under study care.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT05490134RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing naloxone for brain effects in healthy adults
This early study tests a medicine called naloxone, given by the study, to see how it affects the brain and safety in people who are otherwise well. It may help researchers understand naloxone’s potential role in brain-related conditions.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–65 - NCT07079241Recruiting
Volunteer naloxone responders for opioid overdose emergencies
This trial trains volunteers to give naloxone, a medication that reverses opioid overdoses, using a smartphone app to alert nearby responders. It could help save lives by getting antidote treatment to overdose victims faster.
Malmö, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT04375033RecruitingPhase 4
Oral versus injection buprenorphine for opioid use disorder
This trial compares taking buprenorphine by mouth versus as an injection for opioid use disorder. It aims to see which option helps people stay on treatment and reduces opioid use over about a year.
Tuscaloosa, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04811014RecruitingPhase 4
Helping young adults stop opioids after an emergency visit
This study offers an engagement program for young people who tested positive for opioids and meet criteria for opioid dependence. The goal is to help participants stop opioid use safely and learn whether this approach works well in the real-world emergency setting.
Houston, TexasAges 13–17 - NCT04925427Recruiting
Reducing overdose deaths by targeting opioid use
This study aims to reduce opioid-related overdose deaths in Illinois by identifying people who are likely using opioids in a non-medical way. You may be invited to participate if you live in a specific area and meet criteria for opioid use.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05142267Recruiting
Study stress and opioid-risk factors in chronic low back pain
This study looks at how stress and the body’s natural opioid/cannabinoid systems may relate to risk of opioid misuse. It tests people with long-lasting low back pain to see what biological or psychological factors might increase or lower that risk.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05450718RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose buprenorphine start for opioid use disorder
This trial tests whether starting buprenorphine using a low-dose plan is a safe and workable way to treat opioid use disorder. You may be able to join if you are 18+, have opioid use disorder, and can follow the study medication and visits.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05877118Recruiting
Helping people get naloxone education at ED discharge
This trial tests ways to improve how people receive naloxone (an emergency overdose-reversal medicine) education when they leave the emergency department with a prescription kit. It may help patients and caregivers feel more confident using naloxone during an overdose emergency.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 21–65 - NCT06666621RecruitingPhase 4
Naloxone injection for low back pain
This trial tests whether naloxone, a drug that blocks opioid effects, can change how your body responds to pain injections in the lower back. It may help find new ways to treat low back pain that hasn't improved with physical therapy or oral medications.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06726200RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing buprenorphine formulations for fentanyl addiction
This study tests two different forms of buprenorphine (a medication for opioid addiction) to see which works better for people who use fentanyl or other strong synthetic opioids. If you are seeking treatment for opioid use, this trial may help you find the most effective option.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65
What Naloxone is being studied for
Conditions with recruiting Naloxone studies.
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Naloxone?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13 recruiting studies that include Naloxone, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Naloxone trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Naloxone an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Naloxone or a specific trial is right for you.
