Brain imaging study for cocaine use disorder interactions
Treatments studied
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This early-phase study uses brain imaging to understand how cocaine use disorder affects brain function. It may help researchers learn more about brain pathways involved in craving and treatment targets.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Aged 18 to 55 years old
- For the cocaine group: you meet DSM-5 criteria for cocaine use disorder
- You must not have other current psychiatric or substance-use disorders (besides nicotine dependence for all groups)
- No recent heavy drug or alcohol/cannabis use, and you must not be taking prescription or brain-affecting medicines
- You must be able to safely do MRI (no MRI-dangerous metal in your body, and no major seizure/eye conditions)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This early-phase study uses a PET brain scan (a special imaging test) to see how the brain responds in people with cocaine use disorder. It aims to better understand brain activity and whether this scan approach could help research or future treatments.
This study uses a special PET scan to look at how brain cells make energy, which may be changed by cocaine. It might help researchers find better ways to treat cocaine use disorder.
This study looks at how cravings for cocaine change over time in people who have recently stopped using. Researchers will measure brain activity to understand this process better.
This study tests whether brain stimulation can help people with cocaine use disorder. It is a research study that aims to identify brain targets for treatment with a non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
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.
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.
