This study seeks to bridge the knowledge-to-action gap regarding psychosocial treatment "dosing" for youth with and/or at familial risk for bipolar disorder (BD). In psychiatry, pragmatic collaborative decisions between patient and care provider about pharmacological titrations and tapers are common. Less frequently are there considerations made regarding the pragmatic dosing of psychosocial interventions. Whereas some youth clearly require full/"high-dose" treatment, others may benefit from "lower-dose" interventions, alongside re-evaluation of dosing needs over time. Furthermore, there is a subset of youth who do not require or do not want the intensity and frequency of treatment that current interventions provide. This research presents a unique opportunity to better understand different levels of care within a subspecialized outpatient mental health clinic serving youth with and/or at familial risk for BD who vary greatly in terms of risk indicators, type and severity of symptoms, associated distress, and compounding functional impairment.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) will be conducted over 1 year in youth with and/or at familial risk for bipolar disorder (BD). DBT will be divided into two modalities: 1) DBT skills training; and 2) DBT individual therapy sessions. Skills training sessions will incorporate the 5 standard adolescent DBT modules: mindfulness skills, emotion regulation skills, distress tolerance skills, interpersonal skills, and walking the middle path skills and an additional module on psychoeducation about DBT and BD. This study seeks to build upon the knowledge base in this area by offering DBT to youth with and/or at familial risk for BD with an emphasis on predictors and mediators of treatment outcomes.

Standard one-year dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), which has four components, is an effective treatment for people with borderline personality disorder. However, such DBT programs are in short supply and costly, resulting in long wait lists. In practice, DBT is often reduced in length or intensity. This study will determine whether shorter DBT treatment is clinically effective and cost-effective. In total, 240 self-harming BPD patients will be randomly assigned to receive either 1 year or 6 months of DBT, with follow-up lasting two years. Rates of suicidal and self-harm behaviours, use of health care and general psychological functioning will be examined.

DBT-P for Emotional Dysregulation

Durham, North Carolina
The goal of this study is to find out if improving emotion regulation skills use during pregnancy reduces maternal stress and improves heart rate. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does improving emotion regulation skills during pregnancy reduce stress and improve the ability to cope? * How is a participant's heart rate affected by their ability to control their emotions during pregnancy? Researchers will test the hypothesis that dialectical behavior therapy skills groups (DBT-P) will improve emotion regulation skills use as well as heart rate. Participants will: * Visit the clinic for 3 sessions at the beginning, middle and end of their pregnancy. * Compete surveys and interviews asking about their thoughts, feelings and how they cope with emotions. * Have their heart rate taken. * If assigned to the investigational group, they will complete weekly remote emotion regulation skills groups for 10 weeks and complete daily diary cards that ask about mood and any thoughts of self-harm.

To integrate traditional Indigenous Knowledge with gold-standard therapy to enrich the patient experience from an anti-oppressive, culturally safe perspective for marginalized individuals with psychosocially complex pregnancies. The Knowledge Carrier does not have a prescribed way of integrating Indigenous knowledge but will respond to each patient on an individual basis depending on the needs in the current session, supporting the patients with story-telling and validation of Indigenous beliefs regarding well-being in pregnancy. Specific Aim 1: To evaluate through a patient lens content of the Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) through the lens of an Indigenous Knowledge Carrier (Elder) to make content more rich and accessible to marginalized persons. Specific Aim 2: To provide a culturally safe space and anti-oppressive care environment for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous patients in keeping with the Truth and Reconciliation Call to Action #22

Why Other Patients Applied

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Dbt clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Dbt clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Dbt trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Dbt is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Dbt medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Dbt clinical trials?

Most recently, we added DBT-P for Emotional Dysregulation, Perinatal Dialectical Behavioural Therapy for Complex Pregnancies and Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Bipolar Disorder to the Power online platform.
