Cocaine Use Disorder Understanding

Cocaine Use Disorder: Overview

Cocaine is a tropane ester alkaloid found in leaves of the Erythroxylum coca plant. Cocaine is the world's most addictive drug. Cocaine Use Disorder is a condition characterized by the harmful consequences of repeated cocaine use, a pattern of compulsive cocaine use, and (sometimes) physiological dependence on cocaine (i.e., tolerance and/or symptoms of withdrawal). Cocaine use increases the levels of the natural chemical messenger called dopamine in the brain and prevented from re-cycling, which causes extra amounts to build up between nerve cells and because of this “flood” of dopamine, the normal brain communication is interrupted and causes the high that people get from cocaine. Cocaine use can lead to addiction and adverse physical effects, such as stroke and cardiac arrest.

Symptoms

The symptoms of Cocaine Use Disorder include:

• Being unable to stop or limit use
• Craving cocaine
• Making a habit of using cocaine even though it causes problems
• Rapid increase in the amount of cocaine needed
• Regular use may result in irritability, exhaustion, nausea, vomiting, shaking, and sweating

Diagnosis

Diagnosis of Cocaine Use Disorder is done by thorough examination of patient’s symptoms and health history along with physical examination. The disorder is only diagnosed when cocaine use becomes persistent and causes significant academic, occupational, social or medical impairment. Accurate diagnosis of this disorder requires assessment by a qualified practitioner trained in psychiatric diagnosis and evidence-based treatment.

Treatment

The first step in the treatment for Cocaine Use Disorder is to stop using cocaine. This is also known as detox. The second step is to change behaviors to stop from using the drug again. Treatment may be given in a rehabilitation program. Medicines like antidepressants, Topiramate and gabapentin to lower the risk of seizures, Methylphenidate, Baclofen, Modafinil, or Disulfiram can be given to ease withdrawal symptoms and lower the risk of using again. Behavioral Therapy may be used for cocaine withdrawal.

Cocaine Use Disorder Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Cocaine Use Disorder report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Cocaine Use Disorder Emerging Drugs

• EMB-001: Embera NeuroTherapeutics

EMB-001 is a patented combination product comprised of two FDA-approved medications, the cortisol synthesis inhibitor metyrapone and the benzodiazepine oxazepam. EMB-001 may potentially reduce the cravings and loss of control that drive relapse in addiction, by uniquely targeting multiple pathways, thereby possibly maximizing potential efficacy. The therapy is currently under Phase 2 clinical studies for cocaine use disorder and smoking cessation.

• AFQ056: Novartis

AFQ056 (mavoglurant) is a metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antagonist. AFQ056 has completed Phase II study in July 2021 (NCT03242928). The study has assessed whether AFQ056 can have a beneficial effect by reducing cocaine use in Cocaine Use Disorder (CUD) patients as assessed by Timeline Follow-Back cocaine self-report.
