Trial summary

Prescription opioid overdose represents a public health crisis. A number of efforts have been implemented to address opioid prescribing and opioid risk mitigation strategies for prescribers, but relatively few efforts have sought to address this problem directly with individuals who use opioids.

About this study

Official title: Translation of Opiate Overdose Prevention Strategies

Prescription opioid overdose represents a public health crisis. A number of efforts have been implemented to address opioid prescribing and opioid risk mitigation strategies for prescribers, but relatively few efforts have sought to address this problem directly with individuals who use opioids. This gap likely fails to fully address the inherent reinforcing nature of the medications that make it challenging to reduce use.

The specific aim of this study is to pilot test a toolkit that pairs an intervention with the distribution of naloxone. External facilitation (supervision check-ins) will aid translation to delivery by non-research staff. Firstly, data will be collected from participants over time as a control group, prior to training site staff. Next, non-research staff will be trained on the intervention. Staff at the site will use the online "toolkit" developed in the beginning of this project to deliver the interventions and naloxone to their clients/patients as part of usual care. After staff at the site(s) are trained, additional data will be collected from participants during the intervention period and after 3-months.

Read the detailed description

Based on feedback from non-research site staff, the OPT-IN Project implementation package was tailored for optimal delivery in the site setting. The translation strategy will be evaluated using the RE-AIM framework, which includes Reach (e.g., number of individuals receiving intervention), Effectiveness (e.g., patient/client outcomes), Adoption (e.g., numbers trained), Implementation (e.g., fidelity of intervention delivery) and Maintenance (e.g., sustained in routine practice over time) with mixed qualitative and quantitative methods with intervention recipients.

What participants receive

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

  • Behavioral: the OPT-IN InterventionBehavioural

    A private one-on-one brief motivational interviewing intervention administered by non-research staff at community organizations. This will take up to 30 minutes to complete. The goal of the intervention is to improve opioid safety and reduce related overdoses among those who has a history of misusing opioids (prescription and illicit). The session will use techniques to change behavior in a respectful, non-confrontational, and non-judgmental manner. This intervention will also seek to empower participants by providing content on bystander response as well as peer outreach, which emphasizes ways to discuss overdose risk with others at risk for overdose.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overdose Risk Behaviors (ORB)

    The ORB measures change over time for prescription opioid use, specific to type of opioid use, combination with other substances, route, and if they use alone. This scale is a total sum of 9 items assessing participant's self-report of engaging in behavior that increases risk for overdose. Higher scores indicate greater risk for overdose. The range for this measure is 0 to 32 in one assessment.

    Measured: 3 months post-baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Behavioral: the OPT-IN Intervention in people with Opioid-Related Disorders, run by University of Michigan 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 3 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 13 Aug 2020. 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?

Overdose Risk Behaviors (ORB) (time frame: 3 months post-baseline). 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 13 Aug 2020.
