Orexin Receptor Antagonism and Sleep in Stimulant Use Disorder

Study Overview

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.

Description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of suvorexant (SUVO), on sleep, stress, and drug craving during early abstinence from stimulants and to determine the effects of treatment (SUVO vs. treatment as usual (TAU)) on post-treatment (Days 13-30) residential program length of stay (LOS) and completion rate.
