Active clinical trials for "Opioid-Related Disorders"

This application describes a 3-year, randomized controlled trial. Eligible, consenting adults (N=200) with existing sublingual buprenorphine (SLB) prescriptions who enter Middlesex County House of Corrections (MCHOC) as pre-trial detainees will be randomized at admission on a 1:1 basis to be inducted onto extended-release buprenorphine (XRB) at the time of admission (experimental condition) or remain in SLB (E-TAU; all participants will also receive naloxone). The two approaches will be compared with regard to (1) the percentage of participants released from jail with at least 7 days of buprenorphine in their system, (2) percentage of participants continuing MOUD treatment in the community, and (3) infractions related to buprenorphine diversion.

Polysubstance use involving opioids and methamphetamine is emerging as a new public health crisis. Patients with opioids and methamphetamine use often experience serious medical complications requiring hospitalization, which provides an opportunity to offer addiction treatment. Yet linkage to outpatient treatment post-discharge is suboptimal and methamphetamine exacerbates outcomes. We propose to pilot test "MHealth Incentivized Adherence Plus Patient Navigation" (MIAPP) to promote treatment linkage and retention for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) and methamphetamine use who initiate buprenorphine in the hospital. Our Aim is to perform a two-arm, pilot randomized clinical trial (n=40) comparing MIAPP + treatment-as-usual (TAU) versus TAU alone on outpatient medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) linkage within 30 days (primary) and 90-day retention on medications (secondary) among hospitalized patients with OUD and methamphetamine use.

The proposed project seeks to use public health and clinical data on opioid use disorders (OUD) outcomes for mother and infants, which is the leading cause of death to mothers one year after deliver and can lead to neonatal withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) and other poor outcomes. Insufficient or incomplete data about OUD and lack of integrated programs for OUD treatment during pregnancy can be barriers to providing optimal care to mothers and infants.

The NIH Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) initiative has identified a critical next step to addressing the opioid crisis: improving treatments for opioid misuse behaviors (e.g., using more opioids than prescribed, illicit substance use) in patients prescribed long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain. In previous work, the investigators have developed innovative consensus-based algorithms to manage these behaviors. By developing implementation strategies for these algorithms, this project is directly responsive to the HEAL initiative and promises to reduce opioid misuse-related harms.

The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and ventral internal capsule (VC) for participants with treatment refractory opioid use disorder (OUD) who have cognitive, behavioral, and functional disability. This study will also provide critical information for planning subsequent clinical trials.

This project aims to improve the health of individuals engaged in co-occurring alcohol and opioid use by supporting the maintenance of behavior change initiated in substance use treatment. Building on prior research, this study will entail a stage 1b pilot to test the feasibility and acceptability of an app-based intervention for individuals reporting co-occurring alcohol and opioid use. The intervention will involve modifying an app currently used in a research study to collect GPS information to send push notifications when individuals encounter self-identified place-based triggers. Thirty individuals completing substance use treatment will consent to use the app for a thirty-day pilot period and will complete assessments of intervention feasibility and acceptability. Using within-subject tests, the analysis will summarize participant responses to assessments and will compare the use of general messaging to place-specific messaging.

The DIGITS Trial addresses a critical knowledge gap: How to best implement digital treatments for opioids and other substance use disorders in primary care. The DIGITS Trial is a partnership between Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute (KPWHRI) in Seattle, and Kaiser Permanente Washington, a healthcare delivery system in Washington State. In this study, the FDA-authorized reSET and reSET-O digital therapeutics will be implemented in Kaiser Permanente Washington primary care clinics. The study will evaluate the extent to which two implementation strategy interventions, health coaching and practice coaching, improve the implementation. Primary care clinics are randomized to receive these implementation strategy interventions. Each clinic will have a 12-month active implementation period beginning on its date of randomization. To study the continued use of reSET and reSET-O after the active implementation period is completed, a sustainment period of up 12 months will follow the active implementation period.

The grant will test two timely and successful evidence-based implementation practices, NIATx Coaching and ECHO, with jail/community-based healthcare providers to increase medication assisted treatment (MAT) use with justice populations.

The opioid epidemic is the largest man-made public health crisis the United States has faced. The objective of Trial 2 of the Application of Economics & Social psychology to improve Opioid Prescribing Safety (AESOPS-2) study, is to discourage unnecessary opioid prescribing by increasing the salience of negative patient outcomes associated with opioid use.

Through CTN-0076-Ot (Clinical Decision Support for Opioid Use Disorders in Medical Settings: Pilot Usability Testing in an EMR (COMPUTE)), our team has iteratively developed and piloted a web-based and electronic health record (EHR)-integrated Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Clinical Decision Support (CDS) system to offer expert guidance to primary care providers (PCPs) on the diagnosis and management of OUD. The OUD-CDS has been implemented within the EPIC EHR of one large care system and was piloted with 55 providers to ensure content validity and provider satisfaction. The team will now implement this OUD-CDS in a large multi-site clinic-randomized controlled trial to evaluate its impact on practice process measures and patient outcomes. The investigators also aim to prepare for scalability (i.e., integration into usual primary care practice after the study is complete) and dissemination by evaluating facilitators and barriers to implementation, determining the costs of implementation and maintenance, and assessing the short-term cost impacts of the OUD-CDS. The study will include three large diverse care systems and randomize a minimum of 30 clinics to receive the OUD-CDS intervention or usual care (UC). In intervention clinics, the OUD-CDS will identify patients who are at high risk for OUD or diagnosed with OUD; use data stored in the EHR for each eligible patient to assemble treatment recommendations tailored to each patient's current needs; display these recommendations to PCPs via the OUD-CDS user interface; and store analytic data from all targeted visits. In UC clinics, the OUD-CDS will run invisibly in the background to identify high-risk or OUD patients, assemble treatment recommendations tailored to each eligible patient's needs, and store analytic data from all targeted visits.
