Active clinical trials for "Substance-Related Disorders"

Adolescent substance use, sexual assault, and sexual risk behaviors pose a great public health concern, and subsequently there is also a great need to prevent these behaviors and experiences. This project involves the adaptation and integration of evidence-based prevention content aimed at preventing and reducing substance use, sexual assault, and sexual risk behaviors. This project uses innovative technology within primary care visits to conduct a feasibility trial of an integrated prevention program.

The goal of this study was to determine whether a series of blood markers of alcohol use obtained from alcohol using pregnant women could help them to change their behavior.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether adding a brief alcohol treatment to standard violence intervention programs for women will result in reduced drinking, reduced partner violence perpetration, and reduced partner violence victimization. We hypothesize that, relative to standard care, women receiving the additional brief alcohol intervention will have better alcohol use and partner violence outcomes.

The overarching goal of this formative research is to examine whether, and in what combination, contingency management (CM) and motivational interviewing (MI) can facilitate entry of stimulant-using men who have sex with men (MSM) into the pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) care continuum.

Veterans seeking compensation for musculoskeletal (MSD) conditions often develop chronic pain and are at high risk for substance misuse. This study is designed to pilot test the Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment for Pain Management (SBIRT-PM) intervention. SBIRT-PM is designed to reduce pain and reduce risky substance use among veterans applying for VA Benefits for a musculoskeletal condition, in part by helping Veterans get connected to comprehensive pain treatment. This pilot will involve a 2-year period to arrange for SBIRT Counselors at a single site to counsel Veterans throughout New England by phone with SBIRT-PM to test the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention.

The purpose of this pilot-study is to to distribute naloxone auto-injector in a "Universal Precaution" manner to patients with opioid substance use disorder. The objectives are to decrease the number of fatal and nonfatal overdose deaths, to examine and understand the risk factors for serious opioid toxicity and overdose, and to evaluate the unintentional opioid overdose risk utilizing an evidence-based screening questionnaire.

Randomized clinical trial comparing standard residential substance abuse treatment to standard residential treatment plus Mindfulness and Acceptance Group Therapy for substance use.

This study is designed to develop and test a gender-specific, web-based drug abuse prevention program. Study participants will be adolescent girls aged 13 and 14 years who will complete all measures online. Randomly assigned girls will also interact online with a skills-based program and subsequent annual booster sessions. The study's primary hypothesis is that rates of 30-day alcohol and drug use will be lower among girls assigned to receive the intervention.

The main objective of this research is to demonstrate the possible use of erythroferrone (ERFE) as a potential marker of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) use to be included in the Athlete Biological Passport (PBA) developed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

The purpose of this study is to define pathophysiological subtypes of abnormalities in subjects with cocaine dependence.
