NCT01570699

Brief Summary

The main objective is to compare the genotypes of the COMT Val158Met polymorphism between opiate-users and opiate-dependent subjects. The secondary objective is to constitute a sample of opiate-users without any lifetime opiate dependence.

Study Arms (2)

2: patients included in METHADOSE study

includes opiate-dependent patients substituted by methadone

Genetic: COMT polymorphism

1: opiate-non dependent patients

Will be included in the COM ON study subjects who have consumed illicit opiates (heroin, methadone, buprenorphine or morphine) more than 10 times in their life, without ever having the DSM-IV criteria for opiate dependence or abuse

Genetic: COMT polymorphism

Interventions

The COMT enzyme enables the degradation of brain monoamines such as Dopamine and is encoded by a single gene for which several polymorphisms are known, including the Val158Met polymorphism which has been widely studied in various psychiatric disorders including addictions, as well as in impulsivity
