Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Relapse is very common in patients with illicit drug use disorder and contributes to a series of bad consequences that substantially impact patients' physical and social functions. Due to the limited existence of effective addiction treatment, the majority of patients with drug use disorder could not access help when needing. Mobile health (mHealth) offers a potential solution to improving recovery outcome for patients in community. Objective: This paper is a protocol for a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a smart phone application called community-based addiction rehabilitation electronic system (CAREs) . This interactive system consists of an APP for clients and a webpage for service providers, with the aim of teaching clients craving and emergency coping skills and helping service providers to improve work efficiency and effectiveness in community. Methods: A randomized controlled trial(RCT) will be conducted. Sixty drug illicit users who are newly ordered to undergo community rehabilitation will be recruited from the community in Shanghai. Participants will be 1:1 randomly assigned to receive integrated community rehabilitation by using CAREs or only receiving routine community rehabilitation for 6 months. Corresponding anti-drug social workers will provide service and monitor participants' drug use behavior in accordance with the routine work-flow. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and in the 6th month. The primary study outcome is the performance on illicit drug urine test which will be carried on regularly twice per week during the study period. Secondary study outcomes include days that participants interact with anti-drug social workers, and the decrease rate of addiction-related issues severity index.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Drug urine test The results of drug urine tests will be examined in overall percentage of drug positive samples. Overall percentage of drug positive samples= the number of positive urine tests results / the number of total urine tests (Subject who does not submit urine samples on time during the intervention period or refuses to submit samples even if he/she is present at the site will be considered as having a positive urine test result). Up to six months
Secondary Interacting with anti-drug social workers Interaction with anti-drug social workers: The days that participants interact with their corresponding social workers will be collected during the study period. Any phone call, SMS, face-to-face meeting, or communication via CAREs will be considered as interaction happening. Up to six months
Secondary The decrease rate of addiction-related issues severity index The Chinese translation of the Addiction Severity Index (ASI) that has good reliability and validity in China will be used to assess the severity of addiction at enrollment and 6 months after enrollment. The descent rate will be counted via dividing the minus value between baseline score and 6-month score by baseline score. Up to six months
Secondary Longest duration of sustained abstinence Longest duration of sustained abstinence will be measured by drug urine tests and will be reported in weeks(the most consecutive weeks of drug negative samples). Up to six months
