Trial Outcomes & Findings for Imaging Synaptic Density in Cocaine and Opiate Addiction In Vivo Using 11UCB-J PET (NCT NCT03527485)

NCT ID: NCT03527485

Last Updated: 2024-07-16

Results Overview

PET scan- Participants underwent a single 11C-UCB-J PET scan to obtain measures of synaptic density (BPND). Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were also obtained for anatomical registration/partial volume correction (PVC) with the iterative Yang (IY) algorithm. BPND is a unitless metric. The study aimed to explore synaptic density differences in subjects with opioid use disorder compared to a control group within the sample.
