NOFO Number: RFA-AT-18-002
Summary:

Office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) with buprenorphine/naloxone prevents overdose deaths. Nonpharmacologic approaches to anxiety, stress, and emotion dysregulation are needed during primary care OBOT, which is the primary access point for opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment in most U.S. counties. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) safely and reliably reduce the impact of stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, which could increase OBOT retention while reducing rates of relapse and overdose deaths. Current 8-week standard MBIs do not appear to have strong, sustained impact on substance use outcomes, suggesting longer or enhanced MBIs are needed in the OUD treatment setting. This project proposes to adapt, refine, and compare the effectiveness of the 6-month Mindful Recovery OUD Care Continuum delivered within group-based opioid treatment (GBOT) versus standard GBOT alone.

PSYCHOSOCIAL PAIN MANAGEMENT TO IMPROVE OPIOID USE DISORDER TREATMENT OUTCOMES New Strategies to Prevent and Treat Opioid Addiction Behavioral Research to Improve Medication-Based Treatment NCCIH University of Michigan, Ann Arbor ILGEN, MARK A. ANN ARBOR, MI 2018
NOFO Title: Clinical Trials or Observational Studies of Behavioral Interventions for Prevention of Opioid Use Disorder or Adjunct to Medication Assisted Treatment-SAMHSA Opioid STR Grants (R21/R33)
NOFO Number: RFA-AT-18-002
Summary:

Many individuals who receive medication-assisted therapy (MAT) leave treatment early and continue to struggle with opioid use disorder (OUD), often within the context of poorly managed comorbid chronic pain. Psychosocial interventions for pain have been effective in patients with chronic pain and substance use disorders, but these interventions have not been examined in the OUD population receiving MAT. This study proposes to refine and adapt a psychosocial pain management intervention (PPMI) delivered by telephone for patients with OUD receiving MAT and then to conduct a randomized controlled trial of the intervention in patients receiving MAT to improve adherence and pain- and substance-related outcomes. The intervention uses elements of cognitive behavioral pain management interventions adapted specifically for patients with OUD receiving MAT. The new intervention will be compared to an enhanced usual care condition (EUC) in 100 patients.

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative Limited Competition: Behavioral Research to Improve MAT: Ancillary Studies to Enhance Behavioral or Social Interventions to Improve Adherence to Medication Assisted Treatment for Opioid Use Disorders (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: RFA-AT-19-007
Summary:

Chronic pain may be linked to poorer outcomes in those using medication-assisted treatments (MAT) to treat opioid use disorders (OUD). Psychosocial interventions for pain have been effective in patients with chronic pain and substance use disorders, but these interventions have not been thoroughly examined in the OUD population receiving MAT. The study team previously refined and adapted a psychosocial pain management intervention (PPMI) to be delivered by telephone for patients with OUD receiving MAT. The current study will understand the potential applicability of this intervention to other high-risk groups, such as veterans, study the longer-term impact of PPMI, and gather data to inform the implementation of PPMI in MAT patients. This work will provide a robust test of the PPMI intervention to help enhance MAT outcomes in a larger and more representative group of participants while also paving the way for future implementation of interventions to improve MAT retention.
