“This trial will inform us if focused ultrasound could change the way some patients feel about cocaine,” said principal investigator Nassima Ait-Daoud Tiouririne, MD, the director of UVA’s Center for Leading Edge Addiction Research . “What if we could reverse brain changes caused by drug use? This would change the way we treat addiction as a whole.”Cocaine use has been increasing steadily in Virginia for a decade, the researchers note. Overdose deaths jumped by a third from 2019 to 2020 alone.
If the approach proves safe and effective, patients might one day soon go for a simple outpatient visit and leave with less desire to use cocaine. UVA’s trial is recruiting people ages 18 or older who have been diagnosed with cocaine-use disorder and who are not trying to give up using cocaine.
