Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of art therapy applied to individuals with substance use who are subject to probation on difficulty in emotion regulation, self-esteem and hopelessness. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: [Is art therapy effective on the level of emotion regulation difficulties of individuals with substance use who are subject to probation?] [Is art therapy effective on the self-esteem level of individuals with substance use who are subject to probation?][Is art therapy effective on the hopelessness level of individuals with substance use who are subject to probation?] Data will be collected through scale forms and art therapy sessions. Within the scope of the pre-test application, data will be collected from all participants in the sample group using the "Personal Information Form", "Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-Brief Form (DERS-16)", "Coopersmith Self-Esteem Scale", "Beck Hopelessness Scale". Art therapy will be applied face to face to the participants in the intervention group, in groups of 4-12 people, in the group guide room, on a common day and time determined by the group members and the researchers. Researchers will compare the experimental group and the control group to see whether art therapy applied to individuals with substance use who are subject to probation has an effect on emotion regulation difficulties, self-esteem and hopelessness.
This pilot trial will explore the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of the most recently approved formulation of injectable extended-release buprenorphine (XR-BUP) for treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) in rural settings. We will randomize 144 eligible individuals with moderate to severe OUD in a 2:1 ratio to one of two medication conditions: (1) XR-BUP (128mg target), administered every 4 weeks or (2) SL-BUP (16mg-24 mg/day target).Participants will receive study medication treatment for the 14 week-intervention period, including an initial ~2-week period of induction/stabilization. The study will use a mixed-methods approach (participant assessments, study medication records, qualitative interviews) for assessing feasibility and acceptability, and results will include patient outcome data on the comparative effectiveness of XR-BUP versus SL-BUP for patients with OUD in rural settings.
This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of using 1:1 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC):Cannabidiol (CBD) cannabis oil as an adjunct therapy to methadone-based Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) for individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) in a community setting.
Based on the biological-psychology-sociological medicine pattern, this study aims to construction an early warning model of the New Psychoactive Substances (NPS) using for adolescents aged 14-35 years old. This study intends to obtain the data related to the behavioral expression of addiction susceptibility genes, adverse childhood experience, cognition, resistance and the use of NPS in adolescents by questionnaire survey (sample size: 200), and then use logistic regression and machine learning to construct an early warning model.
Substance Use Disorders continue to increase across the United States with significant adverse effects resulting in more than $700 billion annually (NIDA, 2017) with high co-occurring rates of IPV. The negative consequences are devastating to families and society. This team has developed a digital, interactive platform, RITch®CBT for the convenience of participants' within their own home & with out of session practice exercises. We propose to conduct a Phase I and II Study: UG3 (Phase I) and UH3 (Phase II) in collaboration with the FDA regarding ongoing feedback and regulatory processes. In Phase I, we propose a feasibility study, a randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of RITch®CBT (n=20) among SUD-IPV diverse male clients entering addiction treatment comparing it to face to face 1:1 CBT (TAU, n=20). If efficacious, a Phase II (UH3, n=80) trial will be conducted to test the effectiveness of RITch®CBT among SUD-IPV compared to TAU (n=80) in reducing addiction and IPV.
Men who have sex with men (MSM), and gender minority individuals who have sex with men, living with HIV and substance use disorders (SUDs) are less likely to be virally suppressed, which can lead to HIV transmission and negative health outcomes. This hybrid type 1 study will assess the efficacy, mechanisms, as well as facilitators and barriers to implementing the MATTER intervention, a virtually delivered 5-session text-enhanced psychobehavioral intervention designed to facilitate viral suppression by addressing internalized stigma and shame as barriers to engagement in HIV care among MSM and gender minority individuals living with HIV and SUDs in two locations with different levels of HIV resources (i.e., the Boston, Massachusetts and Miami, Florida metro areas). MATTER aims to mitigate the negative behavioral consequences of internalized stigma and shame on viral suppression by a) developing behavioral self-care goal setting skills and related self-efficacy, b) increasing metacognitive awareness (i.e., non-judgmental awareness of emotions and cognitions), and c) teaching and reinforcing compassionate self-restructuring (i.e., self- compassion), in addition to providing access to phone-based resource navigation. Scalable interventions such as MATTER are essential to our efforts to end the HIV epidemic in high priority regions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of evidence-based Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) among adult patients who screen positive to one or more risky alcohol or substance use behaviors while seeking care at a sexual and reproductive health (SRH) clinic. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does SBIRT impact patients' alcohol and substance use, SRH, mental health, physical health, quality of life, and wellbeing? - Does SBIRT effectiveness differ by ethnicity, socioeconomic status, age, gender, and urbanicity? - Does SBIRT effectiveness differ by delivery mode (in-person vs. telemedicine)? Participants will receive in-person SBIRT, telemedicine SBIRT, or usual care. Participants will complete surveys at interviews at baseline, 30 days, and 3 months. Researchers will compare patients who received SBIRT to patients who receive usual care to see if patients who receive the SBIRT intervention have a greater reduction in negative outcomes as compared to those who receive usual care. In this setting, usual care consists of basic quantity and frequency questions asked inconsistently as part of the admission process and varying by provider, with no standardized approach to screening, treatment, follow-up, or referral.
There is growing recognition of the need for approaches to initiate treatment wherever patients touch the health care system, including the Emergency Department (ED). Most research has focused on initiation of medications for opioid use disorder (MOUDs) in the ED rather than ensuring continued treatment post-discharge. The investigators propose to adapt evidence-based interventions to support patients' complex needs and facilitate continued treatment, rather than discharging them and having them navigate outpatient treatment systems with limited support. The research team will randomize participants into 1 of 4 arms to receive varying degrees of augmented usual care, including daily check-ins and contingency management. The investigators plan to examine the effects of check-ins and contingency management on engagement with addiction treatment and equity of treatment effects among racial and ethnic subgroups and assess important moderators of treatment effects.
Clinical study participation percentages haven't always been fully representative of a given demographic. The goal is to find out which aspects of a clinical trial may make it more difficult for patients to take part or see it through. The data will be evaluated through different demographic lenses and identify trends that could help improve the experience of future substance abuse disorder patients during clinical trials.
This study will assess the age-dependent effects of smoked and oral THC on abuse liability, intoxication, analgesia and impairment as a function of age.
