Filter by:The investigators propose to examine the prospective influence of substance use patterns on HIV/tuberculosis adherence, pharmacokinetics and disease progression while developing novel methods for early detection and correction of these mechanisms of treatment failure in Irkutsk. At the University of Virginia, the investigators have considerable research experience with vulnerable HIV populations and have adapted mobile phone methods for data collection of adherence, substance use, and study retention. The investigators have also begun development of colorimetric methods for pharmacokinetic monitoring that utilizes urine which may be suitable as a non-invasive sample for the unique environmental factors affecting HIV patients in Irkutsk, namely geographic remoteness and concurrent substance use
This study entails an evaluation of the New Jersey State Parole Board Swift, Certain, and Fair (SCF) Supervision Program. The purpose of the evaluation is to test whether subjects assigned to SCF Supervision perform better than those assigned to parole-as-usual (PAU).
This study will determine the feasibility of offering expanded continuous labor support by trauma- and addiction-trained medical paraprofessionals (i.e. doulas) at no cost to pregnant women receiving care for substance use disorders (SUD). The long-term goal of this transdisciplinary multilevel intervention is ultimately to reduce a major existing behavioral health disparity in the state. This cross-campus multi-disciplinary collaboration, is in partnership with Young Women United (a research and policy organization in NM) and doulas of the UNM Birth Companion Program. Through this partnership, women receiving combined OB/SUD treatment at the Milagro Program at UNMHSC will be offered expanded doula services.
This study demonstrates the feasibility, acceptability of SKY program as an adjuvant therapy for American population suffering with OUD through a pilot program in Columbus, Ohio. The aim of this study is to evaluate the SKY program as an adjuvant therapy to treat opioid addiction.
This research aims to determine the effects and safety of cannabidiol (CBD) (ATL5 softgel capsules) as an adjunctive therapy for patients, who have Opioid Use Disorder and are taking buprenorphine + naloxone or methadone. Buprenorphine + naloxone and methadone is an approved treatment for Opioid Use Disorder, but relapse to opioid misuse is common among patients who receive this treatment. Finding an adjunctive treatment that reduces relapse for these patients would be helpful. We will recruit participants from the Tarzana Treatment Center (TTC) in the San Fernando Valley. They will be receiving buprenorphine + naloxone or methadone as part of residential therapy. Potential participants who pass initial screening and wish to continue in the study will provide written, informed consent and will complete a 2-day evaluation, including blood and urine tests, questionnaires about their mood, medical, psychiatric and drug use history and physical exam. Up to 60 participants who meet all eligibility criteria will be invited to complete baseline assessments (blood and urine tests, questionnaires), and will be assigned randomly to receive CBD (600mg/day) or placebo, corresponding to two groups of up to 30 participants each. After the baseline measurements, participants will take part in a 28-day treatment phase for 4 weeks. They will take the study medication under supervision (CBD 300 mg twice daily or placebo). Questionnaires on opioid craving, withdrawal, and mood symptoms will be administered daily during the treatment period excluding weekends. After the 28-day intervention, participants will complete the questionnaires and undergo urine drug tests in 4 weekly follow-up visits. The study will last ~10 weeks, comprising three periods: a screening period (2-weeks when participants are stabilized on buprenorphine + naloxone or methadone in residential treatment at the Tarzana Treatment Center), a treatment period (4 weeks when study CBD or placebo is administered at Tarzana Treatment Center), and a follow-up period (4 weeks after termination of the test intervention).
Housing instability is both a cause and consequence of mental health problems. As such youth experiencing housing instability (e.g., homeless or marginally housed) have higher rates of mental health problems.Because of their circumstances, these youth also face significant barriers to mental health care and are therefore less likely to receive the treatment that they need. Mobile technology may offer a novel platform for increasing access to mental health care in this population. The primary goals of this pilot study are to (1) establish the feasibility and acceptability of delivering automated mental health interventions via smartphone technology, (2) examine the extent to which automated mental health interventions delivered via mobile technology improve mental health in homeless, marginally-housed, and exiting foster youth.
The relapsing nature of opioid use disorder is a major obstacle to successful treatment. About 90% of those entering treatment will relapse within one year. To improve treatment outcome, new interventions targeting the underlying brain biomarkers of relapse vulnerability hold significant promise in reducing this critical public health problem. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that can modulate brain connectivity.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of a Computer-based Training for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT4CBT) to treatment as usual in outpatients seeking treatment for substance use disorder.
The trial comprises an Enrollment Visit, a Qualification Phase, a Treatment Phase (including 3 treatment periods), a Final Examination, and a Follow-up Phone Call. The Qualification Phase includes a naloxone challenge test (to verify that participants are not opioid-dependent) and a drug discrimination test (to determine whether or not participants are able to distinguish intranasally administered active drug from placebo). Participants will be randomized to receive a single intranasal dose each of oxycodone active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and matching placebo in a double-blind manner. The total mass of each single dose will be 30 milligrams. Participants who successfully complete the Qualification Phase are eligible to be included in the Treatment Phase. During the Treatment Phase, participants will receive test product, comparator, and placebo following a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, 3-way crossover design. Participants will receive a single intranasal dose of each of the treatments (combined doses of investigational medicinal product {IMP}) on Day 1, Day 4, and Day 7 of the Treatment Phase. A single dose of a treatment is defined as insufflation of single doses of the 2 applicable IMPs in quick succession. The 2 applicable IMPs must be insufflated in the following pre-defined order. Oxycodone API or placebo to match oxycodone API must always be insufflated first. Oxycodone immediate release (IR) abuse-deterrent formulation (ADF) or placebo to match oxycodone IR ADF must always be insufflated second. The total mass of each single dose of treatment will be 570 milligrams.
This is an open-label, single center study of The Bridge in patients with sustained remission of opiate dependence on established, low-dose MAT with buprenorphine. A fixed number of patients will be admitted to the study.
