Background/ObjectivesTopiramate has been studied in the treatment of substance use disorders and is often used off-label in the treatment of other disorders with impaired impulse control. We sought to determine whether impulsiveness could predict topiramate treatment response in individuals with cocaine use disorder (CUD).MethodsIn a post-hoc analysis of a 12-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of topiramate for CUD, we examined the relationship between response to treatment and participants' baseline score on the Barrett Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11). During the original trial, topiramate was titrated up to 300mg/day over 6 weeks and maintained for 6 weeks. All participants received weekly cognitive behavioral therapy.ResultsIndividuals with total BIS-11 scores above the median had 11.2% more cocaine-free days with topiramate versus placebo (Bonferroni corrected p=0.047). Individuals with first-order factor scores above the median in self-control (Bonferroni corrected p=0.020) and at or below the median in attention (Bonferroni corrected p=0.022), and second-order factor scores at or below the median in attentional (Bonferroni corrected p=0.024) and motor impulsiveness (Bonferroni corrected p=0.046) were all associated with a greater improvement with topiramate.Discussion/ConclusionThe results indicate an association between higher within-group impulsiveness and response to topiramate for CUD. The subscore findings may suggest a complex interaction between effectiveness and known cognitive side effects. The finding that trait impulsiveness is associated with treatment response is a promising discovery that may help guide treatment for CUD.Scientific SignificanceThis analysis suggests a possible endophenotype based on impulsiveness that can predict treatment response to topiramate.
