About this study

Official title: Development of a Community-based Buprenorphine Treatment Intervention

The main goal of this study is to pilot test the community-based buprenorphine treatment (CBBT) intervention, examining buprenorphine treatment initiation, opioid use, and HIV risk behaviors. Two groups of participants will be followed for 60 days, with 3 research visits. One group will be enrolled prior to the CBBT intervention (pre-intervention), and one group after the CBBT intervention (post-intervention). Data sources will include questionnaires, urine toxicology tests, and medical record data. Investigators hypothesize that compared to the participants in the pre-intervention group, participants in the post-intervention group will be more likely to initiate buprenorphine treatment, reduce opioid use, and reduce high-risk HIV risk behaviors.

What participants receive

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

  • Community-based buprenorphine treatment (CBBT) interventionBehavioural

    Community-based buprenorphine treatment (CBBT) intervention consists of three components which are delivered to staff of syringe exchange programs, including: 1) providing buprenorphine education, 2) facilitating access to buprenorphine treatment, and 3) providing support to individuals who initiate buprenorphine treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. initiation of buprenorphine treatment

    Medical record information will be extracted to determine initiation of buprenorphine treatment, which will be defined as a visit with a medical provider in which buprenorphine is prescribed.

    Measured: 60 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. opioid use

    Opioid use will be determined via self-report using the Addiction Severity Index and via urine specimens (e.g., urine toxicology testing).

    Measured: 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Community-based buprenorphine treatment (CBBT) intervention in people with Opioid Dependence and Injection Drug Use, run by Albert Einstein College of Medicine 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 6 inclusion and 2 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 23 Apr 2018. 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?

initiation of buprenorphine treatment (time frame: 60 days). 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 23 Apr 2018.
