About this study

The overall aim of this study is to determine modifications to Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy that are needed in order to effectively deliver treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in a community mental health center. This study is the final study in a series of three projects executed to adapt and pilot-test a team ERP (T-ERP) intervention that will optimize therapist time by utilizing paraprofessionals to assist with group-ERP treatment plans. The intervention will be tailored to meet the unique needs of low-SES individuals with OCD and be implemented in a community mental health center (CMHC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Team ERP (T-ERP) Intervention and Treatment as Usual (TAU) in people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, run by Butler Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in OCD symptom severity as measured by the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) (time frame: Baseline, 6th week of treatment, 12th week of treatment, 3 months post-treatment, 6 months post-treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Aug 2017.
