3 Potentially lethal dose Positive effect = addictive potential Negative effect Full agonist- morphine/heroin hydromorphone Antagonist - naltrexone dose Antagonist + agonist/partial agonist Agonist + partial agonist Super agonist- fentanyl Partial agonist - buprenorphine Mu efficacy and opiate addiction

4 Buprenorphine: Clinical Pharmacology Partial Agonist high safety profile/ceiling effect low dependence Tight Receptor Binding long duration of action slow onset mild abstinence

5 Good Effect

8 Buprenorphine detoxification in community clinics Buprenorphine : Very brief pharmacology CTN Protocols 0001 & 0002 Buprenorphine vs clonidine: Inpatient detoxification Outpatient detoxification Treatment success /Number needed to treat Looking ahead: Implementation: Successes and barriers The rest of the world

9 The First CTN Protocols Short term inpatient detoxification –Buprenorphine/naloxone vs clonidine –(CTN 0001) Short term outpatient detoxification –Buprenorphine/naloxone vs clonidine –(CTN 0002)

10 Study Design Buprenorphine/Naloxone 13 days detoxification Open Randomized Study Bup/Nx:Clonidine = 2:1 Clonidine 13 days detoxification

11 Joint Probability N remaining in treatment X Total N of subjects N giving drug free urines N remaining in treatment

17 Percent Present and Clean 0002 (Outpatient)

18 NNT: Number Needed to Treat CTN 0001 (Inpatient) NNT for Bup/Nx 77/59 = 1.31 NNT for Clonidine 36/8 = 4.5 NNT Clonidine : BupNx = 3.44 CTN 0002 (Outpatient) NNT for Bup/Nx: 157/46 = 3.4 NNT for Clonidine: 74/4 = 18.5 NNT Clonidine : Bup/Nx = 5.44 NNT= Number of patients needed to treat to achieve 1 treatment success

19 Buprenorphine: what does it really mean? The great social experiment: return of opioid addiction treatment to medicine Slow progress in implementation: –External barriers: legislative compromises –Inertia and resistance: medication and recovery Application to the world and the region

20 Pharmacotherapy and Recovery Medications and recovery: incompatible? “Medication is not recovery” The great chemistry paradox –Addiction: chemistry went wrong –Role of “chemistry” (medicine) in recovery

21 You Can Change the Brain with Either Biological or Behavioral Treatments Remember…. Alan Leshner

22 How People Change “You can change some one’s life by altering his genes; but you can also do that by paying off his credit card” James Watson
