Testing naloxone for brain effects in healthy adults

Analgesia

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.

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.

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.

Testing whether opioids plus support change learning behavior

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.

Testing ENA-001 for Opioid-Related Breathing Problems

This study tests a new medicine (ENA-001) that helps restore normal breathing when it has slowed down too much due to opioid painkillers. Healthy volunteers will receive the drug to see how safe it is and how the body handles it.
