I would say to your friend exactly what you said in your post. Express your feelings of concern, love and and unconditional support. And if this person is avoiding you, then write him a letter. Let him know that you are aware of the fact that he has a problem, and you are only concerned about his welfare and will do anything to help him, not judge him or shame him. He may initially get angry at you, but that is part of addiction, along with the denial this disease brings.
It may take a while for this seed to develop into something, but the odds are he is very aware that he has a "problem". And the odds are he is sick and tired of living like he is, since the cycle of addiction is a fucking hell in itself.
That's really all you can do. Sounds like you know this disease well...perhaps he has family that would step in and do an intervention, but that doesn't always work either. I really hope he gets treatment soon, as we say...the end result of this disease is jails, institutions or death.
