Adaptive brain stimulation for opioid use disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation that adapts to your brain activity, aiming to reduce cravings and help you control opioid use. It is for people with long-standing opioid use disorder who have not gotten lasting relief from at least 3 treatment attempts, including medication.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 to 75 years old
- You have had severe opioid use disorder for at least 5 years, and have tried at least 3 treatments (including one medication like buprenorphine) without long-term success
- You are willing to start or switch to buprenorphine for the study
- You have a stable home and a family member or friend who can help you stick to the study schedule
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and will use effective birth control if applicable
- You do not have certain medical conditions that make surgery or MRI risky (like bleeding disorders, pacemakers, or metal in your body)

This trial tests a new brain stimulation approach for people with severe addiction that hasn't gotten better with other treatments. It uses deep brain stimulation guided by brain mapping to try to reduce cravings and help you stay abstinent.
This study tests a type of brain stimulation (called tDCS) to help people reduce their use of stimulants (like crack/cocaine) or opioids. It might help lessen cravings and improve treatment outcomes.
This study tests whether deep brain stimulation (DBS), a surgical treatment that uses electrical pulses to target specific brain areas, can help reduce cravings and relapse in people with opioid use disorder who haven't found relief from other treatments.
This trial combines a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS with thinking exercises to see if it helps people with opioid use disorder who are already on medication. It aims to improve treatment outcomes
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation approach to reduce opioid cravings in people who are actively using non-prescribed opioids while on stable methadone. It may help people feel less craving and improve recovery support.
This trial tests if brain stimulation can help people starting buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. It aims to improve treatment outcomes and support recovery.
