What is being measured

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

  1. Alcohol Use

    Alcohol use was measured by looking at frequency of use in past 30 days with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), reported at the 3 month follow-up. The mean of each the control and intervention group was used. Frequency of use ranged from 0 to 5 for the follow-up sample. Higher scores mean more frequent use of the substance.

    Measured: 3 month follow-up

  2. Drug Use

    Drug use was measured by looking at frequency of use in past 30 days with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), reported about marijuana use at the 3 month follow-up. The mean of each the assessment only and intervention group was used. Scores ranged from 0 to 13 for the follow-up sample. Higher scores mean more frequent use of the substance.

    Measured: 3 month follow-up

  3. Child Abuse Potential

    Change score was calculated by taking the follow-up scores on the Brief Child Abuse Potential Inventory (BCAP) and subtracting the baseline score. The possible total score for the BCAP ranges from 0 to 24. Therefore, the possible range of scores for the change calculation (reported below) is -24 to +24. Higher scores indicate higher risk at the follow-up visit (worse outcome).

    Measured: baseline and 3 month follow-up

  4. Treatment Engagement

    The number of participants who reported seeking outpatient substance abuse treatment since baseline (either at a treatment facility or through outpatient counseling).

    Measured: at 3 month follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Depression

    Depression was measured by using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) at the 3 month follow-up. CES-D total scores can range from 0 to 60. Scores at 16 or higher indicate clinical significance. Higher scores represent higher risk for depression.

    Measured: at 3 month follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Brief motivational intervention in people with Substance Use, run by Wayne State 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 1 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 8 Aug 2013. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Aug 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Alcohol Use (time frame: 3 month follow-up). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00230009, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 8 Aug 2013.
