Testing naloxone for brain effects in healthy adults
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether giving naloxone, a medicine that reverses the effects of opioids, during a cardiac arrest outside the hospital can help save lives. It is for adults whose cardiac arrest may have been caused by opioid use.
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.
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.
This early study tests how opioid medicine, along with social support, affects how people learn or “unlearn” certain responses. If you’re healthy and meet safety requirements, it may help researchers understand how support could change the effects of pain-related medicines on behavior.
This trial tests whether giving naloxone (a medicine that blocks the effects of opioid drugs) during CPR can improve survival after a cardiac arrest in the hospital. It may help by reversing any opioid-related causes of the cardiac arrest, potentially giving you a better chance of recovery.
This early study tests whether naltrexone (a prescription medicine) changes brain activity measured by MRI in teens and young adults with binge eating and/or purging. It may help researchers understand how the brain works in these eating disorders and whether this treatment could be helpful.
