Interventions

  • alcohol — DRUG
    During the alcohol administration session participants will receive a single administration of alcohol (0.5 g/kg) mixed with lemon lime soda. Participants will consume the drink within 5 min.
  • Stress-Induction — BEHAVIORAL
    The stress-induction procedure is the Cold Pressure Test \[CPT\]) stressor. The bilateral foot CPT requires participants to submerge both feet in ice-cold water (24°C) for 3 minutes.
  • PT150 — DRUG
    Participants will ingest PT150 (0, 225, 450 mg) twice daily (e.g., 0800, 2000h) for 5 five days prior to the conduct of the experimental sessions. The sequence of PT150 doses will be quasi-random such that participants will be maintained on the lower dose of PT150 (i.e., 225 mg twice/day) before the higher dose.

Study Details

The goal of this study is to learn if PT150 can reduce the behavioral and physical effects of stress, alcohol, and alcohol use in people with alcohol use disorder.

  • Experimental: PT150 with stress then alcohol consumption
    Following at least five days of maintenance on a randomized dose of PT150, participants will complete an experimental session involving stress induction. No less than 24 hours later, participants will then complete an experimental alcohol administration session.
