OUD Phenotyping Feasibility for Clinical Trials | Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction | Enhancing the National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network to Address Opioids | NIDA | Emmes Corporation | VanVeldhuisen, Paul | Rockville, MD | 2019 |
NOFO Number:
Summary: Very little research has been conducted on better understanding of phenotypic characterization of individuals with OUD (beyond DSM-5 diagnoses) and how these features predict illness severity, treatment retention or outcomes. The primary objective of the deep phenotyping study is to provide a comprehensive phenotypic characterization (e.g., domains of negative affect, reward salience, cognitive control, mental health) of a heterogeneous sample of individuals (n = 1,000) who currently meet one or more DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for OUD and are in treatment for OUD. In a subset of this sample (n = 100), the investigators conduct digital phenotyping to examine the utility of ecological momentary assessment (EMA), digital sensing and social media to predict retention, medication adherence and opioid use outcomes in patients receiving buprenorphine for OUD. It is anticipated that this foundational study will inform the feasibility and utility of such assessments that can be successfully embedded into imminent and future CTN and other OUD clinical trials. |

OUD Stigma Mechanisms in the Context of Buprenorphine Treatment | Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction | Behavioral Research to Improve Medication-Based Treatment | NCCIH | UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES | GLASNER-EDWARDS, SUZETTE V | Los Angeles, CA | 2020 |
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) regarding the Availability of Administrative Supplements to Support Strategies to Reduce Stigma in Pain Management and Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and Treatment
NOFO Number: NOT-OD-20-101 Summary: Buprenorphine has been shown to be is an effective method for treating Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). However, despite its success, treatment retention rates are notoriously low ? about half of those seeking treatment will have dropped out within the first 6 months. One factor known to negatively impact treatment adherence is stigma. This stigma derives from not only being viewed as individuals with OUD, but even as individuals seeking medications for OUD as these medications often include other forms of opioids. Additionally, individuals with OUD often suffer from other conditions, including psychiatric illness, leading them to live with multiple stigmatized identities. This study will develop tools to assess stigma associated with OUD, seeking medical treatment for OUD, and mental health. This knowledge will then be used to adapt the parent award?s mobile Health intervention intended to overcome stigma barriers and increase adherence to buprenorphine treatment for OUD. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Pilot & Feasibility Trials to Improve Prevention and Treatment Service Delivery for Polysubstance Use (R34 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: DA22-048 Summary: Patients who use both opioids and methamphetamine often experience serious medical complications requiring hospitalization. While hospitalization provides an opportunity to start addiction treatment, linking patients to outpatient treatment after discharge is hard. This project will develop and conduct a pilot trial of an intervention that combines patient navigation with a mobile app offering financial incentives for outpatient treatment. This research will also develop outcome measures to describe participants’ use of healthcare and how it is influenced by baseline methamphetamine use. If effective, this patient-navigator-plus-mHealth approach could help reduce substantial gaps in treatment and retention for people who use opioids and methamphetamines simultaneously. |

NOFO Title: Notice of Special Interest: HEAL Supplements to Improve the Treatment and Management of Common Co-occurring Conditions and Suicide Risk in People Affected by the Opioid Crisis
NOFO Number: NOT-MH-20-025 Summary: This study will evaluate the implementation of the Zero Suicide framework across six health systems serving over nine million people in collaboration with the Mental Health Research Network. The project will incorporate the voice of the patient and provider stakeholders as part of the implementation of the Zero Suicide framework in three health settings from the NIMH-funded parent award as well as the Southcentral Foundation which is an Alaska Native-owned, nonprofit health care organization serving nearly 65,000 American Indian/Alaskan Native people living in and around Anchorage, Alaska. The team will first systematically engage patients, providers, national consumer advocacy groups, and MHRN scientists in formulating research questions to address the prevention of opioid-related overdoses in people with Opioid Use Disorders (OUD) or people without diagnosed OUD who are using opioids for pain management. Next, the team will utilize semi-structured interviews to determine how people with OUD or people without diagnosed OUD who are using opioids for pain management are experiencing the implementation of the Zero Suicide framework in four diverse health systems. Experiences will be recorded using 80 semi-structured phone interviews in a diverse sample of patients who have survived an opioid-related overdose (50% intentional; 50% unintentional), as well as 20 Addiction Medicine, Primary Care, and/or Specialty Pain Medicine providers. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Effectiveness Trials to Optimize, Implement, Scale, and Sustain the Collaborative Care Model for Individuals with Opioid Use Disorders and Mental Health Conditions (U01 Clinical Trial Required)
NOFO Number: RFA-MH-19-525 Summary: Some medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) can be provided in primary care (PC). Systems of team-based PC show promise for improving access and retention in OUD treatment. One such model, collaborative care (CC), includes a care manager, supervised by experts, who help provide evidence-based high-quality OUD care. While CC improves outcomes of depression, other mental health and substance use (MH/SU) disorders and pain, it is unknown how to optimally integrate CC for OUD with other MH/SU disorders. This pragmatic trial tests whether our model of CC for OUD and comorbid conditions increases engagement in MOUD treatment and improves depression symptoms in PC patients with OUD and depression. Innovative pragmatic elements include inclusion of all eligible patients in participating PC clinics, random recruitment and consent, and measurement of main outcomes using only secondary data. These pragmatic elements avoid studying only motivated patients and avoid activating patients randomized to usual care. |

NOFO Title: PHS 2018-02 Omnibus Solicitation of the NIH, CDC, and FDA for Small Business Innovation Research Grant Applications (Parent SBIR [R43/R44] Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: PA-18-574 Summary: This project, a partnership with Principled Strategies, will develop innovative, patient-level models for opioid risk identification and integrate them into the SafeUseNow managed care system—an actionable solution for combating prescription drug abuse that currently operates at the prescriber level only. Incorporating patient-level risk identifier models will strengthen an already powerful and demonstrably effective program and constitutes a critical step in generating a first-in-class, multifactor risk assessment strategy that is truly holistic. Using a variety of data sources, advanced analytics, and multiple empirically validated risk identification models, the groundbreaking advancement in SafeUseNow technology will enable health care stakeholders to identify combinations of prescribers, patients, and pharmacies whose behaviors may contribute to prescription drug abuse. This project will work to obtain new datasets for analysis, assess them, and use them to build national patient-level risk models for relevant outcomes, which will enable the development and evaluation of a next-generation prototype for a patient-level version of SafeUseNow. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Research Networks for the Study of Recovery Support Services for Persons Treated with Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (R24 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-22-043 Summary: About 23 million Americans identify as being in recovery from opioid and other substance use disorders. While recovery support services are an established best practice to support people in recovery, there is little scientific evidence to support the efficacy and implementation of peer recovery support services, training approaches, and delivery models. Recovery support services are particularly lacking in the U.S. Southwest and for individuals who choose to take medications for opioid use disorder as part of their recovery pathway. This project will establish the Peer Recovery Innovation Network to address research gaps. This research will incorporate input from people with lived experience in all stages of the recovery process – toward helping to set the research agenda and conducting the research, as well as enhancing infrastructure for peer recovery support services research. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Planning Grants for Efficacy or Effectiveness Trials of Recovery Support Services for Individuals Treated with Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (R34 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-22-034 Summary: Patients choosing treatment with medications for opioid use disorder as part of their recovery pathway often have difficulties staying on these medications for extended periods of time. Currently, no established evidence-based interventions are available to help. This project will leverage the impact of two widely used recovery support services: peer recovery support services and recovery housing. Delivered by community-based peers with lived recovery experience, the intervention will include assertive outreach, which encourages people in recovery between episodes of care to continue treatment and return to care after treatment dropout and/or resumed opioid use. This research will also examine whether these services can enhance benefits offered by the supportive recovery housing living environment. |

NOFO Title: Administrative Supplements to Existing NIH Grants and Cooperative Agreements (Parent Admin Supp Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: PA-18-591 Summary: Innovative interventions being conducted in emergency departments (EDs) for the treatment of opioid use disorders (OUD) have engaged more OUD individuals in treatment and saved lives. However, individuals who present to the ED following an opioid overdose, particularly those who have received naloxone reversal, are often resistant to accepting treatment. An innovative state-funded project called FAVOR Overdose Recovery Coaching Evaluation (FORCE) was initiated to try to address this problem wherein trained peer recovery coaches are called to the ED as soon as an opioid overdose victim is admitted. The proposed project will assess the feasibility and replicability of this model, assess whether the FORCE approach leads to more opioid overdose survivors entering formal substance use disorder treatment at one month compared to treatment as usual, and assess whether the FORCE approach leads to better retention in SUD treatment for OUD overdose survivors over time. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Behavioral Research to Improve MAT: Behavioral and Social Interventions to Improve Adherence to Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioid Use Disorders (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-AT-19-006 Summary: Poor medication-assisted treatment (MAT) retention disproportionately affects low-income racial/ethnic minority individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) and increases risk for relapse; therefore, evidence-based interventions are needed to improve MAT retention. Peer recovery coaches (PRCs), trained individuals with experiences with substance use disorder, may be uniquely suited to address common MAT retention barriers among underserved populations, including stigma, challenges navigating services, housing instability, and other structural and psychosocial factors. Preliminary work by the research team suggests that behavioral activation (BA) by PRCs may be a feasible, scalable reinforcement-based approach for improving MAT retention for low-income minority OUD individuals. The study builds upon the research team’s formative work to adapt and evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of a PRC-delivered BA intervention (Peer Activate) to improve MAT retention for low-income, minority individuals with OUD. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Understanding Polysubstance Use and Improving Service Delivery to Address Polysubstance Use (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: DA22-047 Summary: Polysubstance use, especially use of both opioids and stimulants, is compounding the already devastating effects of the opioid crisis in underserved rural areas. This project builds on a previously established treatment model for opioid use disorder that uses telehealth and mobile treatment units, which seeks to engage people in activities they enjoy, to help them avoid negative behaviors such as drug use. This research will evaluate the effectiveness of a behavioral treatment approach delivered by peer recovery support specialists in rural areas and using mobile treatment units. The project will measure the intervention’s effect on treatment retention and polysubstance use – as well as evaluate the intervention’s feasibility, acceptability, adoption, and economic value. |

NOFO Title: PHS 2018-02 Omnibus Solicitation of the NIH, CDC, and FDA for Small Business Innovation Research Grant Applications (Parent SBIR [R43/R44] Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: PA-18-574 Summary: This project seeks to develop a first-in-class (FIC), peripherally restricted and long-acting drug with potential to reduce or replace opioid for moderate to severe pain, and that will be non-addictive, safe, and convenient to use. The program is based on strong scientific evidence showing that activation of a receptor called MAS1 produces opioid-independent and peripheral pain relieving activity in a wide range of animal models of chronic pain, including inflammatory, neuropathic, and bone cancer pain. This project focuses on the development of potent, stable, and specific molecules that stimulate MAS1. Researchers will then attach peptides that stimulate MAS to antibody carriers that make them last longer and selectively affect only the peripheral nervous system, which could allow for once a week or twice a month dosing while maintaining the drug’s efficacy and reducing potential side effects, and test the resulting molecule in animal models. |

NOFO Title: Development of Medications to Prevent and Treat Opioid Use Disorders and Overdose (UG3/UH3) (Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-19-002 Summary: Several abuse-deterrent opioid products (primarily formulations) are currently marketed or in clinical development, but they fall short of being resistant to abuse. Rather than abuse-deterrent formulations, this project, in partnership with Ensyce Biosciences, has created two complementary, novel technologies that control the release of known opioids. One technology delivers prodrugs — drugs that are not active until they have been exposed to the right conditions within the body, at which point they are gradually converted into active drugs, making them difficult to tamper with and reducing the potential for misuse. Another technology makes it so that taking increasing numbers of pills inhibits the process of converting prodrug into active drug, reducing the potential for overdose. This project aims to refine the development of these two technologies and work to combine them, and to translate promising animal results into human use. |

NOFO Title: Administrative Supplements to Existing NIH Grants and Cooperative Agreements (Parent Admin Supp Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: PA-18-591 Summary: Given the magnitude of the opioid death epidemic, we need multiple approaches to increase use of medication treatment for opioid use disorder (MOUD) for people from diverse geographical locations. Pharmacists as dispensers of and gatekeepers to opioid medications, including those used for OUD treatment, are natural partners of health care providers. Community pharmacists are widely available even in rural areas. This 2-year study will use a mixed-method design that includes qualitative and quantitative approaches to study pharmacists’ knowledge of, attitudes about, and intention to provide patient care and services for screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment for substance use disorders and MOUD. Study aims are to conduct stakeholder interviews, develop a survey instrument to assess such barriers and facilitators, pilot test the survey instrument, and conduct the survey among licensed pharmacists. |

NOFO Title: Opioid Use Disorder in Pregnancy (R01)
NOFO Number: RFA-HD-18-036 Summary: This study will challenge current clinical approaches to managing the pregnant woman with opioid use disorder. Dosing of buprenorphine (BUP) in pregnant women is based on studies in non-pregnant subjects, which suggests that symptoms of withdrawal occur when plasma BUP concentrations are < 1ng/ml. No such data exist for pregnant women, but this is a prerequisite for defining an appropriate dosing regimen of BUP in pregnant women. We will define this threshold by monitoring women undergoing mild, medically directed withdrawal. The Clinical Opioid Withdrawal Scale score and the Finnegan score for NAS are key to defining when withdrawal occurs and thus dictate treatment in mother and baby. Neither scoring system is based on plasma BUP concentrations and thus, may not reflect true opioid withdrawal. This proposal aims to develop physiologic-based scoring systems that refine the accuracy of diagnosis and optimize treatment. |
