简要总结
This is a 10 week, open-label, prospective study, involving 10 volunteer participants with cannabis use disorder to test the feasibility and safety of using lorcaserin in addition to the feasibility, likability, and utility of a mobile sensor device in cannabis users. The study will be entirely outpatient. Upon study entry, participants will begin clinic visits at the Substance Treatment and Research Service (STARS) clinic. All consented participants will receive a Fitbit Charge HR device in week 1 to wear for the entire study and receive lorcaserin beginning in week 2 for a total of 8 weeks (weeks 2-9). At the beginning of week 10 following discontinuation of lorcaserin, the participants will continue to wear the Fitbit Charge HR device for this final week following completion of the medication trial. All participants will visit the clinic twice weekly to provide urine toxicology on THC, report on adverse events, complete additional assessments (outlined below), and upload de-identified data from the Fitbit Charge HR device to the secure encrypted Fitabase database. Study assessments will be collected at baseline, throughout the study, and 1 week following medication discontinuation. All participants will also receive medical management, a medication adherence focused psychosocial intervention that facilitates compliance with study medication and other study procedures, including adherence to wearing the Fitbit Charge HR device, and promotes abstinence from cannabis and other substances. Progressive voucher incentives will be provided for compliance with visit attendance and study procedures.

Design Overview: This is a 10 week, open-label, prospective study, involving 10 volunteer participants with cannabis use disorder to test the feasibility and safety of using lorcaserin in addition to the feasibility, likability, and utility of a mobile sensor device in cannabis users. The study will be entirely outpatient Upon study entry, participants will begin clinic visits at the Substance Treatment and Research Service (STARS) clinic. All consented participants will receive a Fitbit charge HR mobile device in week 1 to wear for the entire study and receive lorcaserin beginning in week 2 for a total of 8 weeks (weeks 2-9). At the beginning of week 10 following discontinuation of lorcaserin, the participants will continue to wear the device for this final week following completion of the medication trial. All participants will visit the clinic twice weekly to provide urine toxicology on THC, report on adverse events, complete additional assessments (outlined below), and upload de-identified data from the device to a secure encrypted database. Study assessments will be collected at baseline, throughout the study, and 1 week following medication discontinuation. All participants will also receive medical management, a medication adherence focused psychosocial intervention that facilitates compliance with study medication and other study procedures, including adherence to wearing the device, and promotes abstinence from cannabis and other substances. Progressive voucher incentives will be provided for compliance with visit attendance and study procedures.
The specific aims of the project are:
- To determine whether lorcaserin is associated with a reduction from baseline in cannabis use in individuals with cannabis use disorder seeking treatment.
- To determine the tolerability of lorcaserin in this population.
- To evaluate the feasibility and likability of incorporating a mobile health sensor device in a treatment study for cannabis use disorder.
The primary outcome measures are:
- Lorcaserin will significantly reduce cannabis use during the study period as measured by self-report (Timeline Followback) and creatinine-normalized quantitative THC urine levels.
- Lorcaserin will be well tolerated in participants with cannabis use disorder as measured by the proportion of participants completing the study, adherence to medication, and the proportion of participants experiencing adverse events.
- Participants will find it feasible and likeable to utilize the Fitbit Charge HRTM in the study as measured by selfreport assessment of liking and adherence to wearing the device
