1U01DA051071-01A1 | Process Development, Manufacturing, and Preclinical Evaluation of a Monoclonal Antibody for Fentanyl Overdose | Novel Therapeutic Options for Opioid Use Disorder and Overdose | Focusing Medication Development to Prevent and Treat Opioid Use Disorder and Overdose | NIDA | CESSATION THERAPEUTICS, LLC | Bremer, Paul T. | San Jose, CA | 2020 |
NOFO Title: Grand Opportunity in Medications Development for Substance-Use Disorders (U01 - Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: PAR-19-327 Summary: Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a significant public health problem in the United States. Particularly troubling is the rapid evolution of an opioid epidemic within the past decade, characterized by a surge in unintentional overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. The current standard of care for opioid overdose is reversal with opioid antagonist naloxone. Naloxone is effective at reversing overdose from prescription opioids and heroin, but less effective when combating fentanyl, due to fentanyl?s high potency. Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against fentanyl could overcome this problem by specifically preventing the drug from entering the central nervous system, averting overdose and attenuating opioid-induced respiratory depression. This study will develop and design of laboratory protocols needed to establish a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) process, quality assurance protocol, and stability profile for a new human mAb against fentanyl. Subsequent production of current GMP material will enable Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicology studies in rats and dogs and eventually a Phase I/IIa clinical trial. This material will also be used in final opioid-induced respiratory depression studies in mice and non-human primates to confirm therapeutic efficacy of final drug product. If successful, these activities will enable filing for an investigational new drug application for this mAb candidate with the FDA. |

1U01DA050442-01 | Using Implementation Interventions and Peer Recovery Support to Improve Opioid Treatment Outcomes in Community Supervision | Translation of Research to Practice for the Treatment of Opioid Addiction | Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) | NIDA | BROWN UNIVERSITY | MARTIN, ROSEMARIE A; BRINKLEY-RUBINSTEIN, LAUREN ; ROHSENOW, DAMARIS J | Providence, RI | 2019 |
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) Clinical Research Centers (UG1 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-19-025 Summary: Individuals who have been previously incarcerated have a significantly higher risk of dying from opioid overdose, particularly in the first two weeks after release. Providing medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) to individuals on probation or parole decreases the rate of relapse and recidivism, and increases retention in substance abuse treatment. This study will test a systems-change approach for increasing use of MOUD across a network of seven probation and parole sites to improve linkage to the continuum of evidence-based care for justice-involved individuals. Implementation outcomes include program acceptability, adoption, penetration, sustainability, and costs. Client-level effectiveness outcomes include retention, satisfaction, opioid use, opioid overdoses, recidivism, linkage to OUD treatment, and utilization of recovery services. Targeting the intersection of justice and community-based care has substantial potential for addressing the opioid crisis. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) Clinical Research Centers (UG1 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-19-025 Summary: This study will assess the implementation of an evidence-based treatment in correctional settings by comparing the effectiveness of two medications used to treat opioid use disorder—extended-release buprenorphine (XR-B) vs. extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX)—among adults currently incarcerated in U.S. jails and prisons at five distinct trial sites. This study will allow providers, correctional and public health authorities, payers, and policymakers’ timely and relevant data to assess the effectiveness of these medications as potentially useful re-entry treatment options. Findings from this study have implications for expanding public safety and limiting the societal costs of heroin, fentanyl, and prescription opioid addictions. |

NOFO Title: Grand Opportunity in Medications Development for Substance-Use Disorders (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: PAR-18-219 Summary: There are no FDA-approved medications for stimulant use disorders, and therapies for opioid use disorders remain suboptimal in ways that are now a focus of national attention. Thus, there is a clear need to identify new targets and explore new approaches for addiction medication development. Several lines of evidence suggest that PTPRD (receptor type protein tyrosine phosphatase D) may be a promising target for development of pharmacotherapeutics to treat not only stimulant use disorders but opioid use disorders as well. This research will focus on improving existing PTPRD ligands, identifying their effects on the dopamine and opioid systems, and moving the best novel, patentable PTPRD ligands toward human studies. If successful, this project will generate novel, well-tolerated, and bioavailable PTPRD ligands that display in vitro potency, selectivity and stability, and in vivo modulation of both cocaine and opioid-mediated reward at doses that present no significant toxicity. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Research to Foster an Opioid Use Disorder Treatment System Patients Can Count On (RM1 - Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-046 Summary: Although medication-based treatment for opioid use disorder can effectively reduce overdose risk and improve health outcomes, most people discontinue treatment too soon. Quality measures that inform opioid treatment programs about how many patients remain in treatment relative to peer programs could motivate those programs to pursue quality improvement activities, such as helping patients navigate logistical barriers to receiving treatment. This project will test approaches to developing and disseminating retention and outcome measures for opioid treatment programs. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Research to Foster an Opioid Use Disorder Treatment System Patients Can Count On (RM1 - Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-046 Summary: Medicaid covers the cost of treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) for most individuals who need it, including minoritized populations and those with risk factors related to low income, education, and employment. The Medicaid Outcomes Distributed Research Network has supported efforts to improve OUD treatment by developing novel measures of treatment quality and examining effects of treatment quality on overdoses. Using this network, this project will leverage university-state partnerships in 12 states to inform quality improvement initiatives and Medicaid policy. The research will develop provider-level quality measures for OUD using Medicaid administrative data and measure patient-reported outcomes. The research will also look for approaches to use claims-based quality measures and practice-level quality improvement strategies to improve treatment outcomes for people with OUD. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Integrative Management of Chronic Pain and OUD for Whole Recovery (IMPOWR): Research Centers (RM1 Clinical Trial Required)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-030 Summary: Chronic pain and opioid use disorder often occur together, but there are a striking lack of integrated treatments accessible to people in need, particularly Black and Hispanic individuals living and seeking care in under resourced settings. This research will examine multi-modal, evidence-based practices in diverse health care settings and among diverse populations with both chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder. The first project will examine the effects of yoga and physical therapy onsite at methadone opioid treatment clinics. The second project will test Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and a care-management smartphone app for individuals in primary-care based buprenorphine treatment. The third project will compare microdosing versus standard doses/timing of buprenorphine for hospitalized patients. All three projects will improve access to care for Black and Hispanic individuals in under resourced settings by bringing integrated treatments to them. The interventions have high potential to be used broadly. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Integrative Management of Chronic Pain and OUD for Whole Recovery (IMPOWR): Research Centers (RM1 Clinical Trial Required)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-030 Summary: The goal of the Tailored Retention and Engagement for Equitable Treatment of Opioid use disorder (OUD) and Pain (TREETOP) research program is to develop effective, equitable, and sustainable interventions for chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder that improve engagement in medication for opioid misuse/disorder treatment and retention in office-based addiction treatment. TREETOP will prioritize disproportionately affected rural and Black communities. The Engagement research project will investigate whether pain self-management can improve pain and engage primary care patients to seek medication treatment for opioid misuse/disorder. The Retention project will investigate whether pain self-management and/or flexibly dosed buprenorphine/naloxone can improve pain and retention in treatment among patients who have already begun care in office-based addiction treatment programs. With engagement from stakeholders and representatives with varied perspectives and lived experiences, this research will advance the science of sustainably and equitably managing chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder, prioritizing disproportionately affected communities. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Integrative Management of Chronic Pain and OUD for Whole Recovery (IMPOWR): Research Centers (RM1 Clinical Trial Required)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-030 Summary: Health care services for patients with both chronic pain and opioid use disorder are fragmented in the United States. To develop effective and feasible interventions for chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder that can be implemented in both general medical and addiction treatment settings, this research examines two different care-delivery strategies. The first project will compare the effectiveness of a pharmacist-led, collaborative care approach for patients prescribed long-term opioids who have chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder compared to a pharmacist program with a cognitive behavior therapy-based pain self-management program. The second project will examine the effectiveness of a multimodal, interdisciplinary chronic pain management program that includes cognitive behavioral therapy, exercise, and stress management. With input from stakeholders and individuals with lived experience, this research has the potential to generate novel, reproducible, and scalable findings that addresses fragmented care delivery for co-occurring chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Integrative Management of Chronic Pain and OUD for Whole Recovery (IMPOWR): Research Centers (RM1 Clinical Trial Required)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-030 Summary: There are a dearth of integrated treatments that simultaneously address the fundamental causes of chronic pain and opioid misuse/opioid use disorder and that focus on well-being among individuals with chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder. This research will study how to improve the lives of patients with chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder via tailored interventions that explicitly target increasing quality of life and engagement in valued activities, the cultural centering of interventions to meet the needs of diverse patient populations and reducing stigma of chronic pain and opioid misuse/disorder. Specific research projects will i) test the effectiveness, mechanisms, and implementation of an integrated psychosocial treatment for chronic pain and opioid use disorder among individuals receiving buprenorphine from outpatient treatment clinics, and ii) will use community-based participatory research methods to develop a culturally centered strategy for screening and brief intervention of chronic pain and opioid use disorder among American Indian/Alaska Native patients in primary care settings. This research will shed light on a difficult problem and improve health and wellbeing with a focus on diverse and underserved populations. |

NOFO Number: PA-19-056
Summary: Opioid overdoses result from reduced oxygen in the bloodstream. Although the opioid blocker naloxone can reverse the immediate harmful effects of opioids, it also has limitations. It does not last very long, blocks pain relief, and may induce withdrawal. This project will characterize and test the effectiveness of a novel, potent, and long-lasting respiratory stimulant. The study will use a freely behaving, large animal model with physiology similar to humans. |

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: Translating Research to Practice to End the Overdose Crisis (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-23-053 Summary: The overdose crisis has expanded rapidly among adolescent populations in recent years, largely due to illicit substances containing lethal amounts of the highly potent synthetic opioid fentanyl. However, a provider shortage limits access to effective treatment for adolescents with opioid use disorder and other substance use disorders (SUD). Although primary care is a promising setting for expanding delivery of SUD treatment to adolescents, many primary care providers lack the training, resources, and support systems to deliver these services confidently and effectively. This project will leverage a large-scale rollout of integrated behavioral health care in a statewide health system. The research will test whether embedding behavioral health specialists into primary care visits, introducing case management and electronic clinical decision support tools, and reducing stigma will increase delivery of SUD treatment to adolescents. |
