Ann Arbor, Michigan
This study is a randomized Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of Empower@Home, an internet-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program supported by social service providers, in comparison to enhanced usual care for depression in older adults with ambulatory disabilities. A total of 64 participants with ambulatory disabilities will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group (Empower@Home) or the control group (enhanced usual care) in a 1:1 allocation ratio.
This project addresses the following research questions:
1. Does the intervention affect individuals' lives in the following expected areas?
1. Does participation in the intervention lead to greater improvement in depressive symptoms than enhanced care as usual?
2. Does participation in the intervention lead to greater improvement in social engagement and activities than enhanced care as usual?
3. Is the intervention's primary effect mediated by CBT-related (e.g., CBT skills acquisition, cognitive distortions, and behavioral activation), engagement-related (e.g., character or storyline relatedness), and coach-related factors (e.g., therapeutic alliance)?
2. How is the intervention being adopted? What are the barriers and facilitators encountered during the implementation process?

Online Therapy for Depression
Ann Arbor, Michigan
This study is a randomized Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of Empower@Home, an internet-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) program supported by aging service providers, in comparison to enhanced usual care for homebound older adults with depressive symptoms. A total of 256 participants will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group (Empower@Home) or the control group (enhanced usual care) in a 1:1 allocation ratio, with randomization stratified by participating agencies.
The primary aim of this study is to determine the clinical effectiveness of the Empower@Home program. It is hypothesized that participants receiving Empower@Home will show greater improvements in depressive symptoms at 12, 24, and 36 weeks after entering the study compared to those receiving enhanced usual care. Additionally, treatment moderators will be explored and a cost-effectiveness analysis will be conducted to assess the economic viability of the intervention.
The second aim is to investigate the mechanisms of change facilitated by the intervention using a mixed-methods approach. Causal mediation analysis will examine whether the acquisition of CBT skills, reduction in cognitive distortions, and increased behavioral activation, as well as participant engagement and the therapeutic alliance with the coach, mediate the treatment effects. Qualitative interviews with participants will be conducted to provide deeper insights into these mechanisms and enhance the interpretation of the mediation analysis.
The third aim focuses on evaluating the implementation process using the updated Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). This will involve a qualitative process evaluation to identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of Empower@Home, drawing on perspectives from multiple stakeholders.

Online Exercise Promotion for Sedentary Lifestyle
Toronto, Ontario
Given the importance of reducing mortality-morbidity, more effective Physical Activity (PA) interventions are important, and the recently observed stabilizations of PI levels suggest that novel methods must be explored (Ozemek et al., 2019).
This study aims to provide a select sedentary subpopulation with a customized intervention hypothesized to increase their PA adoption. Novel recruiting methods are used to identify a target subpopulation (based on multiple characteristics) that can be contacted in multiple sections of North America. We will intervene online and rigorously test the theoretical formulations that identify the subpopulation and the customized intervention.

Online Psychology Program for Post-Surgical Pain
Toronto, Ontario
This project will evaluate the feasibility of a new fully self-guided online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) program entitled Advancing Online Psychology Tools for the Transitional Pain Service (ADOPT-TPS), developed on an online health application platform called Manage My Pain (MMP). The ACT program is designed to teach mindfulness skills and provide psychoeducation about post-surgical pain. The feasibility of the self-guided online program will be compared to a pre-existing psychologist-guided workshop that delivers the same program. It is anticipated that the self-guided online ACT program will be deemed feasible by participants.

Telenovela Intervention for HIV Prevention in Latinas
Chapel Hill, North Carolina
Latinas continue to be affected disproportionally by HIV in the United States (US). Often, Latinas are not aware of their HIV status. Also, their perception of low risk for HIV interferes with condom use, HIV testing and lack of awareness, access, and use of Pre-exposure Prophylaxis \[PrEP\]. About 60% of total HIV cases in NC occur among women of childbearing age, thus vulnerability to HIV is particularly acute among Latinas between ages 18 and 44 years old, an age group with the highest rate of new HIV infections in NC. These disparities indicate that HIV prevention among Latinas is urgent; therefore, the investigators propose an innovative intervention - a filmed dramatized story (telenovela/soap opera) Infección de Amor \[IA\] (Love Infection) - culturally tailored for Latinas in the US and delivered online. Infección de Amor was filmed and developed but has not been tested with the target audience. The proposed study will pilot test IA and move the intervention to online using a website that will allow individual access around the clock from any location and device, such as a smartphone, ensuring wide dissemination of the intervention in the future. This is a a two-year planning grant (R34) to prepare for an R01 efficacy trial. The aims are to: 1) Develop the intervention delivery website, conduct a website usability test, and test the feasibility and acceptability of the IA intervention (four telenovela episodes) with 10 Latinas, 2) Conduct a randomized controlled pilot study to examine change in HIV prevention behaviors (condom use; HIV testing; and PrEP awareness, access, and use) comparing 71 intervention and 71 control Latinas from baseline (Time 1 \[T1\], 0 months) to post-active intervention (Time 2 \[T2\], 1 month), and to six months follow-up, a period with no contact from the study staff (Time 3 \[T3, 7 months\]), and 3) Complete establishing the study infrastructure, expanding the multidisciplinary team, building the research partnerships with the community, finalize the protocol and training materials, refine recruitment and retention strategies, data collection and data management procedures, and obtain institutional review board approval in preparation for an R01 efficacy study. This study address the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) goal #4: increase NIDA research and programs' public impact. This is a novel intervention to advance HIV prevention for Latinas. This study implement a culturally durable and feasible intervention for Latinas.

Recovery Support for Bladder Cancer
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
For patients with certain types of bladder cancer, the removal of the bladder and the construction of an artificial bladder or reservoir are the only treatment options. Both before and after treatment, patients and caregivers face profound challenges preparing for surgery and planning for tasks during their recovery. To aid in recovery and enhance quality of life this program of research will develop and evaluate a multi-stage intervention geared towards patients and their caregivers. Part 1 of this program will have a nurse or trained health professional prepare both patients and their caregivers before treatment about the upcoming surgery. During this time the nurse will also demonstrate the necessary tools and techniques for stoma care. In addition, patients and their caregivers will receive access to a recovery website, specifically designed for bladder cancer patients to be used as a resource for after treatment. The website will be part 2 of this research and will contain important recovery information, videos about post-surgical care, testimonials by other patients and physicians and a variety of other resources. Patients and caregivers in the control group will receive the Facing Forward brochures from the National Cancer Institute in part 2. This research has been funded by the National Cancer Institute and will be the first study to address the needs of bladder cancer patients and their caregivers. The ultimate goal of the study is to reduce infections and unplanned nurse/ER visits and improve quality of life for both patients and their caregivers. This new program will be evaluated over the course of 12-months and if found successful, has the potential to be disseminated throughout the health care systems of the two study sites.

Online Workshop for Family Caregivers of People with Dementia
Cooperstown, New York
Many family and friend caregivers of persons living with dementia experience depression, stress, and other adverse health consequences due to the responsibilities of their caregiving role. These caregivers express a desire for education and support. The overarching goal of this project is to improve education and support for caregivers of persons living with dementia so that they can take better care of themselves and also their person living with dementia.
Building Better Caregivers workshop is an online, 6-week, small group workshop for family caregivers of persons living with dementia that teaches them caregiving skills and how to manage difficult emotions, stress, and other challenging aspects of caregiving. Caregivers also receive support from other caregivers and two trained workshop facilitators and a workbook to keep. The workshop uses asynchronous delivery that allows caregivers to use materials at home when they have time day or night, self-pace their learning, and chat with other caregivers through threaded discussion board conversations.
In this pilot embedded pragmatic clinical trial the investigators will evaluate the workshop among 108 caregivers who receive health care in urban areas of California and rural areas of New York. To achieve the project goals the investigators will (1) determine the feasibility of identifying, enrolling, and randomizing caregivers to a workshop group or wait-list group; (2) assess the feasibility of using electronic health record data as study outcomes, including depressive symptoms of caregivers and emergency room visits and hospitalizations of their patients with dementia; and (3) determine whether caregivers complete the workshop and think it is acceptable.
If this pilot trial is successful, the investigators will have the information necessary to conduct a larger study among many additional caregivers with the long-term goal of improving their health and the well-being of their person with dementia.

108 Participants Needed
The creation and distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is a large-scale global problem. CSAM is sometimes referred to as child pornography. It includes images, videos, live-streaming, and any other material that depicts sexual acts with a child or adolescent (i.e., a person under the age of 18). It also includes material that shows a child or adolescent in a sexually suggestive or explicit manner partially clothed, or nude, and can include material that does or does not illustrate sexual activity.
CSAM use is a problem that continues to drastically increase in size despite the numerous political, police, and technological initiatives that have been put forth as solutions. Previous research also suggests that many active CSAM users desire help to stop their use, but have experienced difficulties finding support that is anonymous. Thus, there is a great need for anonymous intervention programs that assist active and at-risk CSAM users in developing skills to manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours related to CSAM.
ReDirection is a free, anonymous, online, self-guided, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-based program for individuals concerned about their use or risk to use CSAM. The treatment program is based on many years of clinical experience working with patients who have committed sexual offences, and the results of several previous research projects.
This study will implement a scientifically rigorous design (a three-armed randomized waitlist-controlled trial) to evaluate two versions of this intervention (ReDirection 1.0 and ReDirection 2.0). The primary difference between the two versions of ReDirection is the length of the program and whether it includes the option for asynchronous messaging with a ReDirection specialist. The study design compares ReDirection 1.0 and ReDirection 2.0 with a waitlist control group. Participants in the waitlist control will wait six weeks before starting active treatment. While on the waitlist, participants will respond to questions about ongoing about sexual urges and behaviours.
Participants will be recruited directly from the ReDirection website, where they will be directed to a secure platform designed specifically for clinical trials of internet-mediated CBT. This platform is called Iterapi. Potential participants learn about the ReDirection program through advertisements on both the "Clearnet" and "Darknet." All trial activities, including participant registration, random assignment, intervention, and evaluation will be conducted via Iterapi.
Treatment includes five-to-six modules over five-to-six weeks and the content includes CBT-based psychoeducation and exercises that aim to help participants gain greater understanding of, and skills to manage risky sexual thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

Digital Intervention for Chronic Pain
West Haven, Connecticut
Pain has been identified as among the most frequent presenting medical complaints, in particular within primary care for Veterans. There are few areas of daily living and functioning that pain intensity does not impact, with reported pain intensity related to difficulties in social situations and changes in activities of daily life, sleep, and appetite. Therapeutic interventions such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Chronic Pain (ACT-CP) that target issues related to the cognitions and emotional concerns related to chronic pain have been well-documented for reduction of associated psychiatric symptoms and modest pain relief. At the same time, online programming can improve the ability of pain psychoeducation programs and ACT-CP to reach patients. The proposed project will compare online Veteran ACT for Chronic Pain (VACT-CP) compared to another pain program, Online Pain School, to evaluate how they assist Veterans with chronic pain to improve their functioning, pain management, and quality of life.

Deprexis for Depression
Waco, Texas
Depressive symptoms are common among Veterans and associated with significant impairment. Timely intervention has the potential to improve mental health outcomes and restore functioning. Interventions delivered through the internet can be completed remotely at any time, and thus minimize burden on Veterans, however the research examining their utility in Veterans is limited. This proposed project will examine Deprexis, a self-guided internet-delivered intervention, which targets depressive symptoms and associated functional impairments. Interviews will be conducted to gain insight into Veterans' perceptions, needs, and preferences vis-a-vis Deprexis, with results informing a randomized controlled trial. Here an 8-week course of Deprexis will be compared to a treatment-as-usual (TAU) control condition to establish if Deprexis is acceptable and effective for Veterans with mild to moderate depressive symptoms. Veterans engaged in Deprexis are hypothesized to show improvements on measures of functioning and decreases in depressive symptoms compared to the TAU control group. The proposed work has great clinical utility, as it could provide a readily accessible, high-quality intervention for the many Veterans suffering from depressive symptoms, with the potential to improve functioning and long-term outcomes.

Internet-Based Mental Health Program for Cystic Fibrosis
Regina, Saskatchewan
The goal of the clinical trial is to test whether a mental health program that is delivered through the Internet works well for children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their healthy siblings. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the program improve the mental health such as depression and anxiety symptoms?
* Does the program improve overall quality of life?
* Does the program improve self-efficacy - an individual's belief in their ability to complete tasks to achieve their goals?
Participants will:
* Fill out an online survey asking questions about their personal and health information, as well as their mental health before the program
* Complete the online mental health program
* Fill out an online survey asking questions about their mental health after completing the program, and 1-month and 3-months following completing the program
Participants be compared against another group of children with CF and their healthy siblings who are on a waitlist and receiving usual CF treatment. Researchers will compare participants scores before starting the program with their scores immediately following completing the program, 1-month, and 3-month after completing the program. Researchers hope to develop a program that improves mental health, quality of life, self-efficacy, and knowledge about CF.

CIC + VA-CRAFT for PTSD
Palo Alto, California
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) afflicts many war Veterans, but often they are reluctant to seek help despite availability of effective treatments. Family members are key sources of support who can help encourage such Veterans to initiate mental health services. Toward that goal, VA provides telephone coaching to family members through its Coaching Into Care (CIC) program to help get their Veterans into care. While CIC enjoys high caller satisfaction, it has shown only modest success getting Veterans into care. Blended interventions that include professional support and technology-based interventions offer promise for improving effectiveness of services. Therefore, this study tests an intervention that blends CIC calls with a web program called VA Community Reinforcement and Family Training (VA-CRAFT). VA-CRAFT is a translation of an empirically-validated model intended to help Veterans by training their family members to effectively promote care-seeking. If successful, this approach will support families and help more Veterans receive needed mental health care for PTSD.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Internet-Based Intervention 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 Internet-Based Intervention 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 Internet-Based Intervention 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 Internet-Based Intervention 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 Internet-Based Intervention 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 Internet-Based Intervention clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Internet-Based Mental Health Program for Cystic Fibrosis, Online Workshop for Family Caregivers of People with Dementia and ReDirection Therapy for Reducing CSAM Risk to the Power online platform.
