Trial Outcomes & Findings for Altering Memories That Increase Risk of Relapse in Alcohol Use Disorders (NCT NCT03732248)

NCT ID: NCT03732248

Last Updated: 2021-01-27

Results Overview

Safety will be monitored through adverse events checks by the study physician assistant (PA). The study PA will use the Monitoring of Side-Effects Scale (MOSES) to track if there are any adverse effects. Participants will be recorded as those who report any adverse event vs. no adverse events.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At participant's last study visit, approximately 10-14 days.

Participants will be given a timeline to record any drinking that occurs between visits 2 and 3. Time line follow back procedures were used to record daily drinking behavior for all study days; recorded as standard drinks. The total number of days where drinking was recorded is summed for each participants during the study window.
