This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to identify sex-specific biomarkers that confer greater susceptibility for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and differentiate how treatment response varies by sex in people with Alcohol Use Disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How does trauma affect emotion regulation, inflammation, and limbic function, and what are the sex-dependent effects of NTX (Naltrexone) on these aspects? * What is the mechanism of Naltrexone (NTX), and how does it potentially moderate reductions in alcohol use through changes in or interactions between emotion regulation, inflammation, or limbic system function? Participants will * Be consented and will undergo comprehensive screening for eligibility criteria * Complete behavioral assessments and neuropsychological assessments, as well as neurocognitive assessments and neuroimaging measures * Provide urine samples for a urine drug screen (UDS) and urine pregnancy test (for women), and have blood and a cheek swab collected and stored in the repository * Take a study drug once daily for 12 weeks and track drug usage and effects in a study journal * Undergo weekly assessment calls and bi-weekly medical follow-up safety exams Researchers will compare naltrexone to placebo in AUD to see if naltrexone is effective in reducing alcohol cravings and promoting abstinence. Researchers will also compare baseline measures between AUD and Healthy Controls.
Sex Differences in Trauma, Inflammation and Brain Function and the Implications for Treatment Efficacy in Alcohol Use Disorder
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
