Filter by:This is a formative research study to test a culturally-centered, program-level implementation intervention to increase the use of medications for opioid use disorder in four healthcare and addiction specialty treatment sites serving American Indian and Alaska Native communities.
This is an open-label, randomized, parallel-group multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy of the digital therapeutic OXD01 (MODIA) combined with sublingual buprenorphine/naloxone standard of care (SL BUP/NAL SOC) background therapy compared to SL BUP/NAL alone to change opioid use patterns in subjects with OUD. Approximately 400 subjects will be randomized. The study will include a screening visit and a randomization visit, followed by 24 weeks of study treatment. Subjects will be scheduled for evaluation visits, which will include a UDS and a self report of drug use, weekly during the first four weeks of treatment, then every other week from weeks 5 through 12, then monthly through week 25. Subjects will also return to the site for only a urine drug screen (UDS) and a self-report of drug use each week between the evaluation visits. The primary objective of the study is to determine whether the combination of sublingual (SL) buprenorphine/naloxone (BUP/NAL) standard of care (SOC) background therapy and the digital therapeutic OXD01 is superior to SL BUP/NAL alone to reduce opioid use.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy a Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) program for linking opioid dependent individuals currently incarcerated or in probation in Moldova, Kyrgyzstan, and Ukraine to opioid substitution therapy in the community after release or during their probation period.
Medication is the most efficacious treatment of an opioid use disorder, including methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. However, many patients experience withdrawal symptoms, which prevents them from being successfully inducted onto medication for opioid use disorder. This study is a pilot study investigating whether blocking the SPG helps reduce withdrawal symptoms in OUD. This study does not involve treatment or induction onto medications. It is a proof of principal study only. We will recruit non-treatment seeking subjects with OUD who are admitted to the research unit for all procedures.
The Care Continuity Program (CCP), a product of Sure Med Compliance, is a novel, online patient self-assessment used by prescribers of opioids to better identify patient risk factors and therapy benefit. This tool is completed by the patient, outside of the office, using an internet enabled device and follows a compliance driven protocol developed by analyzing case law against physicians in mis-prescribing opioid cases. Results, in the form of a date and time stamped legal report, are instantly transmitted to the prescriber's electronic health records, mitigating the prescriber's civil and criminal risk. A brief of findings is displayed within the software through a dashboard and on the summary page of the report. This software offering includes a mobile and standard web-based application. The objective of the proposed research is to validate the protocols and delivery system of the CCP by measuring patient outcomes, prescriber confidence, and completeness of documentation in the patient chart in primary care and pain management settings, pre and post implementation of the CCP.
This study integrates the Mental Health Research Network (MHRN) suicide risk models into Opioid Wizard, an electronic health record (EHR) clinical decision support (CDS) to identify and treat patients at high risk of opioid use disorder (OUD)/overdose or diagnosed with OUD, to alert primary care clinicians (PCCs) to patients at elevated risk for suicide and guide them through structured suicide risk assessment. In both intervention and control clinics, suicide risk scores will be calculated for all Opioid Wizard-eligible patients and relevant EHR data to inform analyses will be archived. In intervention clinics, Opioid Wizard will alert PCCs to Opioid Wizard-eligible patients who are at increased risk of suicide and coach them through use of the Columbia Suicide Severity Risk Scale (CSSRS), a structured tool in the EHR that will help PCCs assess immediate suicide risk. Based on the resulting CSSRS score, Opioid Wizard will provide EHR links for risk-based referrals and follow-up recommendations, including care as usual, routine or emergent referral to behavioral health, or transportation to the emergency department (ED) for further assessment. Primary outcome measures include completion of CSSRS assessments for at-risk patients and patient engagement in outpatient mental health care.
Combatting the rise of the opioid epidemic is a central challenge of U.S. health care policy. A promising approach for improving welfare and decreasing medical costs of people with substance abuse disorders is offering incentive payments for healthy behaviors. This approach, broadly known as "contingency management" in the medical literature, has repeatedly shown to be effective in treating substance abuse. However, the use of incentives by treatment facilities remains extremely low. Furthermore, it is not well understood how to design optimal incentives to treat opioid abuse. This project will conduct a randomized evaluation of two types of dynamically adjusting incentive schedules for people with opioid use disorders or cocaine use disorders: "escalating" schedules where incentive amounts increase with success to increase incentive power, and "de-escalating" schedules where incentive amounts decrease with success to improve incentive targeting. Both schemes are implemented with a novel "turnkey" mobile application, making them uniquely low-cost, low-hassle, and scalable. Effects will be measured on abstinence outcomes, including longest duration of abstinence and the percentage of negative drug tests. In combination with survey data, variation from the experiment will shed light on the barriers to abstinence more broadly and inform the understanding of optimal incentive design.
A randomized controlled trial to: 1. To compare both primary (composite quality health indicator (QHI) scores) and secondary (individual HIV/methadone maintenance treatment (MMT)/TB/primary care QHI scores, quality of life, and stigma) outcomes in an anticipated 1,350 people who inject drugs (PWID) receiving MMT from 13 regions (clusters) and 39 clinical settings using a stratified, phase-in, controlled design over 24 months. After stratifying PWIDs based on their current receipt of MMT, they will be randomized to receive MMT in specialty addiction clinics (N=450) or in an ECHO-IC/QI-enhanced primary care clinic with (N=450) or without (N=450) pay for performance (P4P) incentives. 2. Using a multi-level implementation science framework, to examine the contribution of client, clinician and organizational factors that contribute to the comprehensive composite (primary outcome) and individual (secondary) QHI scores.
Reducing Opioid Mortality in Illinois (ROMI) is 5-year research study led by the University of Chicago in partnership with the University of Illinois at Chicago's (UIC) Community Outreach Intervention Projects (COIP), the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA) and the American Institutes for Research (AIR). ROMI aims to understand and test strategies for linking individuals with a history of opioid use disorder who are released from Illinois jails and prisons to substance use treatment. ROMI is one of twelve grants awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as part of the Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) to support research on quality addiction treatment for opioid use disorder in criminal justice settings nationwide.
Opioid agonist treatments are the gold standard for treating opioid use disorder (OUD). Yet, even effective treatments average only 50% six-month retention. Despite extensive research into treatment options, it remains important to improve understanding of factors that contribute to relapse and identify interventions to mitigate these risks. Stress-exposure is problematic for people trying to recover from substance use disorders (SUDs) because it weakens inhibition of automatic behaviors and increases drug craving and likelihood of relapse. However, paths through which stress affects behavior are incompletely understood and current SUD treatments do not target effects of stress on drug use. This project will explore whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) might improve treatment outcomes for people with OUD entering methadone treatment. The investigators will examine the impact of rTMS treatment over one of two theoretically-driven neural targets on substance use and cognitive outcomes associated with treatment success (executive function and emotional arousal).
