About this study

Official title: Intervention for Persons With Co-Occurring Disorders Leaving Residential Tx

This research uses a multi-phase approach to adapt and implement an established intervention, Critical Time Intervention, for a new population and setting among individuals with substance use who are at risk of relapse following residential substance abuse treatment. The goals of the study are to: (PHASE 1) identify challenges and strategies of community reentry among individuals in residential substance abuse treatment and their providers and social support networks (e.g., family, friends, community members); (PHASE 2) adapt CTI for individuals in residential substance abuse treatment to prepare them for discharge and transition back into the community; and (PHASE 3) conduct a pilot study to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of the adapted CTI compared to enhanced usual discharge planning services.

Read the detailed description

This randomized pilot study will examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of the adapted CTI compared to enhanced usual discharge planning services. More specifically, 60 participants will be randomized to either CTI (n=30) or enhanced usual discharge planning services (n=30) at the time of discharge. Participants will complete a baseline interview (prior to randomization) and 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-month follow-up assessments post-discharge.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Critical Time Intervention-Residential (CTI-R)Behavioural

    CTI-R is a 9-month, time-limited intervention that aims to produce an enduring impact by effectively linking individuals to both professional services (substance abuse and health and mental health providers) and social supports (e.g., family and friends) and by providing emotional and practical support. Participants in the CTI-R condition will also receive usual discharge services from the residential substance abuse treatment program.

  • Enhanced Usual Discharge Services-ResidentialBehavioural

    The enhanced usual discharge condition encompasses the regular discharge services offered at the residential treatment program plus enhanced transition services.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Critical Time Intervention-Residential (CTI-R) and Enhanced Usual Discharge Services-Residential in people with Substance Use Disorders, run by New York University at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 1 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Enrollment (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Nov 2022.
