Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-59 with a history of cocaine use who are not seeking treatment for their cocaine use disorder. They must have used cocaine recently, be in good health, understand the study procedures and consent to them, and agree to use contraception if necessary. People can't join if they've had bad reactions to cocaine before or have certain health issues like liver disease or abnormal heart rates.
What is being tested?
The study is testing SXC-2023's interaction with cocaine by comparing its effects on people given either the actual drug or a placebo followed by administered cocaine. The goal is to see if there are any noticeable differences between the two groups' experiences.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves administering both a new drug (SXC-2023) and cocaine, potential side effects could include those typically associated with stimulant drugs such as increased heart rate, anxiety, restlessness, headaches, and other cardiovascular issues.
