Developing a New Way to Screen Alcohol Use Disorder Medications
This study aims to create new ways to test medications for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). Researchers are developing two models to see how alcohol cues (things that make you want to drink) and alcohol availability affect how long someone can resist drinking and how much they drink. Model 1 looks at these factors, while Model 2 adds a small "priming" dose of alcohol. The study wants to enroll 90 participants aged 21 to 65 who meet criteria for AUD. Success for this study means understanding how these models can measure alcohol consumption after 120 minutes. The current recruitment status is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 90 participants. It is designed to develop two models for screening AUD medications.
- What's involved
- You would have an intake session, a physical exam, and two laboratory sessions. During lab sessions, you can choose to delay drinking for money or drink alcohol for up to two hours.
- Compensation
- You can receive monetary reinforcement for delaying drinking and monetary compensation for alcohol not consumed.
- Follow-up
- Alcohol consumption is measured at 120 minutes during the self-administration sessions.
