Numerous variations, changes, and substitutions may occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the invention. It should be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the invention described herein may be employed. [28] Opioid receptor modulators provide effective treatments for acute and chronic pain. Opioid receptor modulators are opioid antagonists so that they bind to opioid receptors. The opioid receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) have each class having subtype receptors. These receptor classes are known as a mu (μ)-opioid receptor, a delta (δ)-opioid receptor, and a kappa (κ)-opioid receptor. Opioid receptor modulators can reverse and block the effects of the opioids, such as heroin, morphine, and oxycodone. They reduce and suppress opioid cravings. There is no abuse and diversion potential with opioid receptor modulators. Members of opioid receptor modulators, particularly naltrexone and naloxone, have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug administration for the treatment of opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder. [29] 3,4-Methylene-dioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), also known as ecstasy or molly, is a widely abused recreational drug. It is known to cause psychostimulation and can induce hallucination and long-term neuropsychiatric behaviors, including depression and psychosis. However, it has been granted FDA “breakthrough therapy” status after Phase 2 clinical trials. MDMA shows promise for treating major depressive disorder by rapidly releasing and increasing levels of serotonin and dopamine in the brain. Recent studies show that MDMA has the potential to act as a rapid-acting antidepressant via its modulation of the 5- hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) system and as an augmentation strategy in cognitive therapy. MDMA also has the potential for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). MDMA rapidly increases availability of extracellular 5-HT at the synapse, mirroring the action of commonly prescribed antidepressants. Compared to first-line treatments for depression, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), that typically take about 6 weeks to produce optimum therapeutic change, MDMA could offer instantaneous relief. This rapid onset is an attractive prospect for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). [30] MDMA is still a controlled substance in most countries. MDMA is neurotoxic, primarily to serotonergic neurons, and induces degeneration of neuronal fibers in rodents and primates. MDMA overdose can produce hyperthermia, with subsequent muscle break down resulting in hyperkalaemia and organ failure. It can have dangerous effects on the cardiovascular, neurologic, renal, and hepatic systems. The potential for MDMA toxicity exists with every ingestion. There exists a long-felt need for an effective means of preventing the
WSGR Docket No.60906-708601 symptoms associated with toxicity of MDMA or MDMA-related drugs. While MDMA has potential of the rapid treatment of depression and PTSD, access to MDMA is constrained by concerns about their abuse liability and the possibility that it may worsen other addictions. Such risks limit the contexts in which MDMA may be administered, reduce the number of providers interested in delivering the treatment, and decrease the number of patients eligible to. [31] Empathogen and entactogen are a class of psychoactive drugs that produce distinctive emotional and social effects similar to those of MDMA. This class of the drugs comprises 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA, ‘Love'), N-ethyl-3,4- methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDEA, ‘Eve'), 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-hydroxyamphetamine (MDOH), 3,4-methylenedioxy-alpha-ethyl-N-methylphenethylamine (MBDB, "EDEN" or "Methyl-J”), 1-Benzofuran-5-ylpropan-2-amine (5-APB), 1-(benzofuran-5-yl)-N-methylpropan- 2-amine (5-MAPB), 6-(2-aminopropyl)benzofuran (6-APB), 1-(benzofuran-6-yl)-N- methylpropan-2-amine (6-MAPB), 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylcathinone (methylone, "MDMC", "βk-MDMA" and "M1"), 4-methylmethcathinone (mephedrone, 4-MMC, and 4- methylephedrone), gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), α-Methyltryptamine (αMT), α- Ethyltryptamine (αET), or 5,6-methylenedioxy-2-aminoindane (MDAI). Most all drugs in this class are of the psychedelic phenethylamine family and contains a substituted amphetamine core.

Definitions [73] Unless defined otherwise, all terms of art, notations and other technical and scientific terms or terminology used herein are intended to have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the claimed subject matter pertains. In some cases, terms with commonly understood meanings are defined herein for clarity and/or for ready reference, and the inclusion of such definitions herein should not necessarily be construed to represent a substantial difference over what is generally understood in the art. [74] Throughout this application, various embodiments may be presented in a range format. It should be understood that the description in range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the disclosure. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible subranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For
WSGR Docket No.60906-708601 example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range. [75] As used in the specification and claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. For example, the term “a sample” includes a plurality of samples, including mixtures thereof. [76] The terms “determining,” “measuring,” “evaluating,” “assessing,” “assaying,” and “analyzing” are often used interchangeably herein to refer to forms of measurement. The terms include determining if an element is present or not (for example, detection). These terms can include quantitative, qualitative or quantitative and qualitative determinations. Assessing can be relative or absolute. “Detecting the presence of” can include determining the amount of something present in addition to determining whether it is present or absent depending on the context. [77] The terms “subject,” “individual,” or “patient” are often used interchangeably herein. A “subject” can be a biological entity containing expressed genetic materials. The biological entity can be a plant, animal, or microorganism, including, for example, bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. The subject can be tissues, cells and their progeny of a biological entity obtained in vivo or cultured in vitro. The subject can be a mammal. The mammal can be a human. The subject may be diagnosed or suspected of being at high risk for a disease. In some cases, the subject is not necessarily diagnosed or suspected of being at high risk for the disease. [78] As used herein, the term “about” a number refers to that number plus or minus 10% of that number. The term “about” a range refers to that range minus 10% of its lowest value and plus 10% of its greatest value. [79] As used herein, the terms “treatment” or “treating” are used in reference to a pharmaceutical or other intervention regimen for obtaining beneficial or desired results in the recipient. Beneficial or desired results include but are not limited to a therapeutic benefit and/or a prophylactic benefit. A therapeutic benefit may refer to eradication or amelioration of symptoms or of an underlying disorder being treated. Also, a therapeutic benefit can be achieved with the eradication or amelioration of one or more of the physiological symptoms associated with the underlying disorder such that an improvement is observed in the subject, notwithstanding that the subject may still be afflicted with the underlying disorder. A prophylactic effect includes delaying, preventing, or eliminating the appearance of a disease or condition, delaying or eliminating the onset of symptoms of a disease or condition, slowing, halting, or reversing the progression of a disease or condition, or any combination thereof. For
WSGR Docket No.60906-708601 prophylactic benefit, a subject at risk of developing a particular disease, or to a subject reporting one or more of the physiological symptoms of a disease may undergo treatment, even though a diagnosis of this disease may not have been made. [80] The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described. Examples [81] The following examples are included for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Example 1: Intravenous (IV) MDMA self -administration (SA) [82] Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were used on a cocaine intravenous (IV) self- administration (SA). A small group of these cocaine-experienced animals were then tested with MDMA SA followed by a within subject test of naloxone (10 mg/kg). [83] Protocol of cocaine-experienced animals: (i) 10-14 days of 0.5mg/kg cocaine IV SA followed by 8-10 days of cocaine extinction and (ii)1 day memory-reconsolidation test, 1 day cue reinstatement testing, 14 days of withdrawal, 1 day long-term cue reinstatement, and 1 day conditioned reinforcement (CR) test. [84] Test Protocol: In 24 hrs after the above CR test, animals were placed on sessions with 0.25mg/kg of MDMA-IV-SA. These were 2hr sessions over a period of approximately 3 weeks to generate stable MDMA-IV-SA. There were only 4 animals that showed stable responding that were ultimately tested with the naloxone/naltrexone. [85] The results in these 4 animals for this study suggest that a 10mg/kg dose of Naloxone (1hr prior the SA session) reduce MDMA SA (FIG.1 & FIG.2). Note that baseline is number of infusions over the last few days of the SA period. Animals then received a saline test session, followed by a Naloxone test session. The animals were re-stabilized on MDMS SA and tested again but this time with a 10mg/kg dose of Naltrexone. A similar reduction in MDMA SA was observed. [86] A small study will be repeated with the above design but with a drug-naïve “clean” group on a either the 0.25 or a higher dose of MDMA (1mg/kg) to determine if stable SA of MDMA can be obtained. Alternatively, cocaine-experienced animals can be used before testing with MDMA and naloxone/naltrexone but in “clean” animals that did not undergo the varied testing protocols used in our pilot study. [87] While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described herein, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that such embodiments are provided by way of example only. Numerous variations, changes, and substitutions will now
WSGR Docket No.60906-708601 occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the invention. It should be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the invention described herein may be employed in practicing the invention. It is intended that the following claims define the scope of the invention and that methods and structures within the scope of these claims and their equivalents be covered thereby.
