Alcohol Drinking Clinical Trials

34 studies are recruiting for alcohol drinking in the United States right now. Each one is listed on ClinicalTrials.gov, the public registry the research teams themselves file with. TrialBoost is not a doctor, a research site, or a study sponsor: the research team decides who takes part.

1. The GLUCID Study: Effect of Alcohol Reduction and Probiotic Interventions on Cognition and Brain Glucose Metabolism in Normal Aging Adults Who Are High-Risk Alcohol Drinkers

   The goal of this pilot study is to explore a combination of two interventions: (1) a behavioral alcohol-reduction intervention using motivational interviewing, and (2) a blinded probiotic microbiome or placebo intervention. The study examines whether these interventions improve cognitive and neurop…

2. Ketone Ester Intervention in Alcohol Use Disorder

   The purpose of this research is to study how a nutritional ketone ester may effect brain function and alcohol consumption in regular alcohol users. The study will see how the brain responds, once after drinking the ketone ester and once after drinking a "placebo", which will look and taste the same…

3. Acute Alcohol Response In Bipolar Disorder: a Longitudinal Alcohol Administration/fMRI Study

   Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) affect up to 60% of individuals with bipolar disorder during their lifetime and is associated with worse illness outcomes, yet few studies have been performed to clarify the causes of this comorbidity. Understanding biological risk factors that associate with and predic…

5. Alcohol and the Social Brain: An Alcohol-Administration Hyperscanning Study Employing a Within-Subject Design

   The study investigates the effects of alcohol consumption on social and individual behaviors using a within-subject design. Participants, aged 21-30, will attend two laboratory sessions approximately one week apart, participating as part of a dyad (pair). During one session, they will consume an al…

6. Towards a Wearable Alcohol Biosensor: Examining the Accuracy of BAC Estimates From New-Generation Transdermal Technology Using Large-Scale Human Testing and Machine Learning Algorithms

   The study will employ a combined laboratory-ambulatory design. Participants will engage in ambulatory assessment over the course of 14 days, wearing biosensors assessing transdermal alcohol concentration (TAC) and providing breathalyzer readings in real-world contexts. Also during this period, part…
