The total market size of CUD in the 7MM was approximately USD 48 million. It is expected to grow at a significant CAGR, reaching a notable value by the end of 2034. DelveInsight’s analysis forecasts market growth due to the introduction of emerging therapies, expecting a rise in market size during the study period (2020–2034). The anticipated increase in market size is driven by advancements in treatment options, greater healthcare access, and a rising prevalence of the condition, which together foster higher demand for innovative and effective therapies.

Cocaine Use Disorder Treatment Market

Cocaine use disorder (Cocaine Use Disorder) is a pattern of cocaine use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress. Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant made from coca plant leaves native to South America. Its use is associated with cardiovascular and neurologic effects, and chronic repeated exposure leads to tolerance, adverse psychological and behavioral effects, and complications, including infections, stroke, and seizure. According to the DSM-5, Cocaine Use Disorder is classified as mild, moderate, or severe based on the number of symptoms within 12 months. A minimum of two to three DSM-5 criteria is required for a mild diagnosis, between four and five for a moderate diagnosis, and between six and seven for a severe diagnosis.

Cocaine Use Disorder Diagnosis

The Cocaine Use Disorder diagnosis involves a combination of physical examination, clinical evaluation, and laboratory testing. Physical examination may reveal external markers of chronic cocaine use, such as cracked lip and thumb caused by heat-related injuries, salmon-colored marks or infected areas from skin sloughing due to subcutaneous injection, and nasal septum perforation from snorting. Common clinical findings include tachycardia, hypertension, diaphoresis, mydriasis, tremulousness, extreme agitation, and mood lability, which may progress to suicidal depression. Urine toxicology screening plays a crucial role when the cause of hyperadrenergic symptoms is unclear; the detection of benzoylecgonine, a long-lasting cocaine metabolite, confirms cocaine use and may be followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for validation. The presence of levamisole, a common cocaine adulterant, can further aid in detection. For patients presenting with chest pain, evaluation begins with ECG and cardiac enzyme analysis, as cocaine use can precipitate acute myocardial infarction, particularly in chronic users with underlying cardiac conditions. Brain imaging and electroencephalograms are warranted for individuals exhibiting seizures, recurrent episodes, or focal neurological symptoms, which may indicate cerebrovascular complications. Comprehensive assessment and targeted testing for associated complications are essential for accurate diagnosis and effective management of Cocaine Use Disorder.

Cocaine Use Disorder Treatment

The Cocaine Use Disorder treatment involves both nonpharmacological and pharmacological approaches. Psychosocial and behavioral interventions are currently the gold standard for managing Cocaine Use Disorder. Intensive outpatient therapy (IOT), cognitive-behavioral therapy for substance use disorders (CBT-SUD), and contingency management (CM) have proven effective in promoting abstinence and relapse prevention. CM, which uses motivational incentives like vouchers, and CBT-SUD, which focuses on functional analysis and skills training, remain key strategies. Cocaine Use Disorder clinical trials are actively exploring novel treatments, focusing on medications and behavioral therapies to reduce relapse rates, improve abstinence outcomes, and enhance long-term recovery in patients.

However, no pharmacotherapy has been approved for Cocaine Use Disorder, though promising candidates include dopamine agonists (e.g., modafinil), GABA/glutamate modulators (e.g., topiramate), and novel agents like ketamine, which influences NMDA receptor signaling. Emerging options such as galantamine, a cholinergic agent, are also being explored for their potential role in addressing disruptions in neurotransmitter systems associated with cocaine use. Integrating behavioral and pharmacological approaches remains the most effective strategy for managing Cocaine Use Disorder.

Cocaine Use Disorder Emerging Therapies

  • Mavoglurant (STP7/AFQ056): STALICLA

STP7 (mavoglurant) is a selective nonallosteric mGluR5 antagonist. mGluR5 has been tied to mood disorders, addiction, and rare and common forms of autism. The product is believed to block a certain protein in the brain, which research has shown is related to people’s craving to use drugs like cocaine. A clinical Phase II study showed mavoglurant-induced abstinence in Cocaine Use Disorder patients through inhibition of mGluR5, with no evidence of withdrawal liability. The company plans to advance mavoglurant into Phase III development to treat Cocaine Use Disorder, which will be covered by the US National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Also, the company will use its precision neurobiology Drug Development Platform (DEPI) to detect subgroups of high-responder patients with rare and common neurodevelopmental disorders where mavoglurant can be an effective treatment, as guided by earlier clinical studies.

 

  • EMB-001: Embera NeuroTherapeutics

EMB-001, a patent product, comprises two FDA-approved medications, the cortisol synthesis inhibitor metyrapone (MET) and the benzodiazepine receptor agonist oxazepam, that act as a potential pharmacological treatment for Cocaine Use Disorder. MET is an 11 ß-hydroxylase inhibitor that blocks cortisol synthesis in the brain and adrenal cortex. At the same time, OX is a GABAA-positive allosteric modulator that increases the sensitivity to GABA, the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. It may also decrease cortisol synthesis in the brain. Through multiple pathways, this combination uniquely targets reducing the cravings and loss of control that drive relapse in addiction, thereby possibly maximizing potential efficacy. EMB-001 acts by mechanisms distinct from those of existing addiction treatments. It is hypothesized to reduce the increased activity in the stress response system induced by drugs, cues, and stressors that contribute to relapse in addiction. The drug has completed the Phase I trial and is currently being investigated under Phase II clinical trial evaluation to treat Cocaine Use Disorder.

Cocaine Use Disorder Market Outlook

Currently, no medications are approved for cocaine dependence or Cocaine Use Disorder; however, recent advances in understanding the processes involved in cocaine addiction have allowed researchers to identify several promising new candidate medications. Several psychological treatments, including group counseling, individual drug counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and contingency management, are effective; however, many patients still do not respond to these treatments and are associated with high dropout rates. Despite decades of efforts, Cocaine Use Disorder has not responded well to pharmacotherapeutic interventions. Nevertheless, a significant understanding of neurobiology has led to the discovery of potential medications like dopamine agonists, including long-acting amphetamine, modafinil, and ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA)/glutamatergic medications, including topiramate. A few combination medications, such as topiramate and mixed amphetamine salts, also appear promising.
