A Study to Test Whether BI 1356225 Improves Impulsive Behavior in People With Opioid Use Disorder Who Are Taking Buprenorphine
Sponsor: Boehringer Ingelheim
Summary
This study is open to people between 18 and 65 years of age with opioid use disorder. Opioid use disorder is also called opioid addiction or opioid dependence. People can join the study if they currently take a medicine called buprenorphine. People with opioid dependence can act on impulse, which can lead to risky behaviours. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1356225 improves impulse control in people with opioid dependence. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes BI 1356225 tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like BI 1356225 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet once a day for 8 days. All participants also continue taking buprenorphine. Participants are in the study for up to 6 weeks. During this time, they visit the study site 3 times. At visit 2, participants stay at the study site for 9 nights. Doctors test participants' impulsivity using tasks or games on a computer and questionnaires. The results are compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Official title: A Phase Ib, Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Effects on Impulsivity, Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of Oral BI 1356225 in Patients With Opioid Use Disorder Taking Background Buprenorphine Treatment
