About the Naomi Study
The North American Opiate Medication Initiative is a clinical trial that will test whether heroin-assisted therapy benefits people suffering from chronic opiate addictions who have not benefited from other treatments.

Funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Canada's premier funding agency for health research, and approved by Health Canada, the study is enrolled participants in Vancouver and Montreal.

News
The NAOMI trial began enrolling in February 2005 in Vancouver and June 2005 in Montreal. These two cities have the largest heroin-addicted populations in Canada. Recruitment into the study was completed in April 2007.
