Other Clinical Trial - Peer Activate: Trial of Peer-Delivered Behavioral

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

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.

Clinical Trial Description

The opioid use disorder (OUD) crisis disproportionately affects low-income, racial/ethnic minorities. There is a pressing need to improve retention in medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD), particularly among low-income, racial/ethnic minorities. Training peer recovery specialists (PRSs), individuals with their own lived experience with substance use disorder (SUD), in evidence-based interventions (EBIs) may be a promising strategy to improve MOUD retention for low-income, minority individuals with OUD. Yet, few EBIs have been evaluated for PRS delivery to promote MOUD retention. Behavioral activation (BA) may be a feasible, scalable, reinforcement-based approach for improving MOUD retention for low-income, minority individuals with OUD. By targeting increases in positive reinforcement, BA has been found to be effective for improving SUD treatment retention, preventing future relapse, and improving medication adherence (i.e., for HIV) among low-income, minority populations with SUD as well as depression, which is a barrier to MOUD retention. Importantly for implementation, BA also is feasible and cost-effective using lay counselor delivery. Following from this prior research, BA is an ideal EBI to evaluate for improving MOUD retention using a PRS-delivered model. This Type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled trial (RCT) builds upon our team's formative work, as well as our recent open label-pilot (R61AT010799) to develop and pilot the PRS-delivered BA approach. Guided by Aarons' stage model and Proctor's model of implementation, we proposed a mixed-methods, Type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation study to evaluate implementation and the effectiveness of the intervention on MT retention. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
