This $4,920,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) will fund a randomized controlled trial at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to investigate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of using long-acting injectable naltrexone as a preventive measure for opioid overdose in individuals using stimulants and living with or at risk of HIV. The project aims to capture patient experiences with concurrent long-acting injectable medicines for HIV and substance use, and employ biomarkers and participant interviews to profile intentional and unintentional opioid exposure among the target population. This innovative research seeks to repurpose naltrexone as a novel opioid overdose prevention strategy for a high-risk group. The project will be conducted at UCSF's Ward 86 Clinic, home to a large cohort of people who use drugs receiving long-acting injectable HIV treatment/prevention, and has the potential to provide valuable insights into the interplay between HIV, stimulant use, and opioid overdose prevention.
