The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a peer-led, brief, behavioral intervention to improve adherence to medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) among low-income, minority individuals living with opioid use disorder (OUD) in Baltimore, Maryland. The intervention is based on behavioral activation (BA) and is specifically designed to be implemented by a trained peer recovery specialist. In this Type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled trial (RCT), we will evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of Peer Activate vs. treatment as usual (TAU) over six months.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | Change in depressive symptoms | Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8). Possible score of 0 - 24, with higher scores indicating more depressive symptoms. | Assessed between the baseline assessment and the acute posttreatment follow-up (approximately 3 months post-baseline) | |
Other | Change in depressive symptoms | Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8). Possible score of 0 - 24, with higher scores indicating more depressive symptoms. | Assessed between the baseline assessment and the final follow-up (approximately 6 months post-baseline) | |
Other | Changes in substance use | Assess prevalence of opioid use and other substance use (urinalysis and timeline followback) | Assessed between the baseline assessment and the acute posttreatment follow-up (approximately 3 months post-baseline) | |
Primary | MT Retention | Defined dichotomously as retention (yes/no) in methadone treatment | Measured at final follow up (approximately six-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Primary | MT Persistence | Calculated as the proportion retained on MT monthly (i.e., at least one methadone dose for each 30 day period) | Measured at final follow up (approximately six-months post-baseline) | |
Secondary | Intervention Feasibility Measured by Intervention Initiation | Feasibility, defined as the suitability and practicability of the approach, will be measured quantitatively as the % of patients who agree to participate in the intervention. We will also collect qualitative feedback relating to feasibility. | Assessed at the post-treatment follow-up (approximately 3-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability Measured by Intervention Attendance | Acceptability, defined as satisfaction with or tolerability of the proposed approach, will be measured quantitatively by session attendance. Specifically, we will measure the % of patients enrolled who attend =75% sessions. We will also collect qualitative feedback relating to acceptability. | Assessed at the acute post-treatment follow-up (approximately 3-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Secondary | Intervention Fidelity Measured by Independent Rating | Fidelity, defined as the delivery of the intervention as intended, will be measured based on PRS adherence to the intervention delivery. A random selection of 20% of sessions will be rated for fidelity by an independent rater, and we will assess the % of intervention components delivered as intended. | Assessed at the acute posttreatment follow-up (approximately 3-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Secondary | MT Retention | Defined dichotomously as retention (yes/no) in methadone treatment | Measured at the acute posttreatment follow-up (approximately 3-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Secondary | MT Persistence | Calculated as the proportion retained on MT monthly (i.e., at least one methadone dose for each 30 day period) | Measured at the acute posttreatment follow-up (approximately 3-months post-baseline assessment) | |
Secondary | Changes in substance use | Assess prevalence of opioid use and other substance use (urinalysis and timeline follow back) | Assessed between the baseline assessment and the final follow-up (approximately 6 months post-baseline) |
