Opioid Abuse and Addiction

BRIEF SUMMARY A. "What is the purpose of this study?" This study will test whether the "AI City Hall Project" (QAIAx), a quantum artificial intelligence (AI) public health agency, can provide free or low-cost behavioral and mental health services inside self-contained, dome-enclosed communities called "Microcities". Researchers want to see if AI-managed public administration, AI humanoid robots, holoportation of human-figures via 'holo-suites' (e.g., AI-119 Kikkeri Holo-Suit; AI-119 Vulcan QM-Ware) and advanced AI mental-health tools can lower housing and care costs, improve mental health outcomes (e.g., particular ecosystems using AI tools among persons with one or more addiction disorders), and be financially sustainable for people on fixed incomes or public assistance. B. "What conditions does the study focus on?" The study focuses on adults with: * Autism spectrum disorders (Asperger's, autism, ADHD, ASD) * Substance use disorders (alcohol, opioids, marijuana, cocaine, MDMA/ecstasy, tobacco/nicotine) * Psychiatric conditions (personality disorders, narcissism, gender dysphoria, eating disorders) * Behavioral addictions (gambling, sex addiction) and related issues (sex offence history). C. "What does the study involve?" Eligible volunteers live in an omni AI-managed Microcity for up to 24 months. The community is housed in a geodesic dome that contains all daily necessities: housing, food, utilities, healthcare, and public services. Daily life is managed by an AI system (ISAC) and AI humanoid robots, with only occasional human oversight. Participants receive free mental-health treatment that may include AI-driven counselling, virtual-reality therapy (holo-suits), and non-invasive digital "attitude inoculation" protocols designed to reduce stress and addiction cravings. All participants also take AI-technology courses as a condition of enrolment. The study does not use any FDA-regulated drug, device, or biologic. \*\*Who can participate?\*\* You may be able to join if you: * Are an adult (18 years or older) * Have a diagnosis of one of the listed mental-health or addiction disorders * Are referred by a licensed health professional (e.g., RN, NP, PhD, MD), a non-profit organisation (e.g., 501(c)(3), university, church), or a public agency (e.g., case manager, social worker, parole/probation officer, judge) * Are willing to live in a closed, AI-managed community for up to one year and complete AI educational courses. Participants who are veterans, receive public assistance (e.g., VA disability, SSDI/SSI, Medicaid, Medicare), or are experiencing homelessness may be prioritised. \*\*Where is the study taking place?\*\* The study will be conducted at Microcity sites in the United States and internationally. The first administrative site is in Richmond, Virginia, USA. Additional sites are planned in partner nations, including tribal lands, military installations, and special economic zones. \*\*Who is sponsoring the study?\*\* The study is sponsored by \*\*Veterans Recovery Network Inc.\*\*, a non-profit organization, in collaboration with \*\*AI-119 Vulcan Project Research \& Educational Technology Co. (PRETCO)\*\* and an AI legal agency. The study is conducted under U.S. federal research and development authorities (28 U.S.C. §1498; 10 U.S.C. §129a) and is part of a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). This summary describes a planned clinical study. Not all details may be final. Information may change as the study progresses.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how safe either one or two nalmefene implants are after remaining implanted for 4 or 12 weeks. Additionally the pharmacokinetics (PK), how fast the drug is absorbed into the body and how long it remains in the body, will also be studies. The data collected in this healthy volunteer study will inform the Sponsor on how best to proceed with future trials in the intended patient population.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if semaglutide can reduce illicit opioid use in adults in outpatient treatment for opioid use disorder, and who are receiving either buprenorphine or methadone maintenance treatment. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does semaglutide increase the likelihood that participants will refrain from using illicit and nonprescribed opioids? The investigators will compare semaglutide to a placebo (a needle prick that contains no drug) to see if semaglutide works to reduce use of illicit and nonprescribed opioids. The participants will: * Take semaglutide or a placebo every week for 12 weeks * Visit the clinic every week for urine drug screening and pregnancy testing, vital signs, and to complete mental health and drug use questionnaires * Complete smartphone surveys sent at set times during the study
