Evaluation of the Therapeutic Potential of Exclusive Antagonists of Extrasynaptic NMDA Receptors for the Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder Cross-Cutting Research Small Business Programs NIDA NEURANO BIOSCIENCE MOLOKANOVA, ELENA La Jolla, CA 2023
NOFO Title: Advancing Validated Drug Targets for Substance Use Disorders (R43/R44 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-22-023
Summary:

New and safe therapeutic targets for treating opioid use disorder are needed. One promising approach is to test drugs currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that work independently of the body’s opioid system. The medication memantine targets N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the brain, which have been implicated in the development and maintenance of addiction. This project will study a miniature version of multiple memantine molecules bound together that attaches only to NMDA receptors that are not within nerve connections. The research will evaluate the safety, misuse potential, and effectiveness of this molecular assembly in preclinical models.

The Effects of Hydrocodone Rescheduling on Pain Management of Older Lung Cancer Patients Cross-Cutting Research Leveraging Existing and Real-Time Opioid and Pain Management Data NCI PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIV HERSHEY MED CTR SHEN, CHA Hershey, PA 2022
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Secondary Analysis and Integration of Existing Data Related to Acute and Chronic Pain Development or Managementin Humans (R21 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DE-22-011
Summary:

Pain is common, complex, and debilitating in many cancer patients. Although adequate pain management can significantly improve health-related quality of life for these individuals, substantial disparities limit care access, especially among underserved populations. After the 2014 Drug Enforcement Agency policy that raised the risk potential of the opioid hydrocodone (from Schedule III to Schedule II), few studies examined the impact of this policy on pain management strategies and outcomes among cancer patients. This project will use national cancer registry data linked with Medicare claims to assess the change in opioid and non-opioid medication use among older lung cancer patients before and after this policy change. By focusing on older racial/ethnic minority groups dually eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, the research will also examine disparities in the use of medications for pain management and service use consistent with inadequate pain management.

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) regarding the Availability of Administrative Supplements to Support Strategies to Increase Participant Diversity, Inclusion and Engagement in Clinical Studies
NOFO Number: NOT-NS-22-066
Summary:

Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, tenderness, stiffness, fatigue, and sleep disturbance. The FAST trial (Fibromyalgia Activity Study with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation [TENS]) was the first study to conclusively demonstrate the clinical value of TENS for treating musculoskeletal pain. While physical therapists are trained in the use of TENS, it is underused in clinical practice. This project will test TENS in fibromyalgia patients receiving physical therapy in a real-world physical therapy practice setting. This research will determine if adding TENS to physical therapy reduces pain, increases adherence to physical therapy and allows fibromyalgia patients to reach their self-defined functional goals with less use of medication.

Using Secondary Analyses to Test Novel Pathways Linking Family Stress and Pain Incidence and Persistence Among African Americans Cross-Cutting Research Leveraging Existing and Real-Time Opioid and Pain Management Data NIA UT SOUTHWESTERN MEDICAL CENTER WOODS, SARAH B Dallas, TX 2022
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Secondary Analysis and Integration of Existing Data Related to Acute and Chronic Pain Development or Managementin Humans (R21 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DE-22-011
Summary:

Chronic pain is a persistent source of disability and reduced quality of life for aging adults. Chronic pain-related outcomes are disproportionately worse for aging African Americans, who report greater pain severity and worse pain-related disability compared to White peers. A significant pain risk factor for African Americans is chronic stress (including family-related stress), which is worsened by structural inequities that affect this population. Although many African Americans identify family support as critical for pain self-management, this influence has not been studied thoroughly. This project will study how pain conditions develop and persist for aging African Americans by analyzing existing data from African American participants in two large aging studies: Midlife in the U.S. (721 participants) and the Health and Retirement Study (2,698 participants). The research aims to determine how family emotional climate affects pain risk, taking into account structural factors like discrimination, socioeconomic disparity, and the influence of various neighborhood settings.

Weighting Longitudinal Data to Access Opioid Analgesia Tapering Outcomes Among Patients with Co-Occurring Chronic Pain and Substance Use Disorder Cross-Cutting Research Leveraging Existing and Real-Time Opioid and Pain Management Data NIDA LOYOLA UNIVERSITY CHICAGO QEADAN, FARES Maywood, IL 2022
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Data and Methods to Address Urgent Needs to Stem the Opioid Epidemic (R01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-22-044
Summary:

Guidelines published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2016 recommended gradual reductions in opioid medication doses (opioid tapering) for people with chronic pain and substance use disorder and recommended that those patients with pain and opioid use disorder should be switched to opioid use disorder medications. Despite wide implementation, little is known about the consequences of opioid tapering among patients with co-occurring chronic pain and substance use disorder. This project will use various databases (Cerner Real-World DataTM, American Hospital Association data, and U.S. Census data) to create a representative electronic health records database. This database will be used to determine the relationship between opioid tapering, multidisciplinary pain treatment, and medications for opioid use disorder – as well as monitor outcomes for patients with chronic pain and co-occurring substance use disorder.
