Team-Focused Approach for Mental Health Support
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Child Advocacy Centers (CACs) are well-positioned to identify children at risk for mental health problems and to facilitate access to evidence-based treatments. Implementation of standardized mental health screening and referral protocols may improve recognition of mental health needs and facilitate treatment engagement. Implementation strategies that improve teamwork may enhance implementation outcomes in team-based settings like CACs. In this study, CACs will implement the Care Process Model for Pediatric Traumatic Stress (CPM-PTS) and be randomized to either team-focused implementation or standard implementation. The study aims are to evaluate the feasibility of team-focused implementation and the effect of the CPM-PTS on caregiver understanding of mental health needs and intentions to initiate treatment.

Virtual Psychological Intervention for ACL Injury
Detroit, Michigan
The goal of this parallel arm prospective randomized control trial study is to compare outcomes in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) Surgery patients after exposure to a virtual psychological intervention (VPI) versus standard care. The main question the investigators are asking is if virtual administration of psychological CBT modules will be an accessible and convenient vehicle to improve ACLR outcomes. Participants will be placed either into a treatment group receiving virtual modules of cognitive behavioral therapy in addition to standard of care ACLR surgery or the control group receiving only the standard of care ACLR surgery. The investigators hypothesize that ACLR patients in the VPI cohort will have improved return to sport and post operative outcomes compared to controls.

Family Spirit Programs for Mental Health Issues
Pokagon, Michigan
This project addresses the disproportionate morbidity and mortality associated with mental and behavioral health problems in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. Access to culturally competent and effective behavioral health services is limited in many of these communities. The investigators aim to address this gap by testing the effectiveness of a trans-diagnostic secondary prevention program, Family Spirit Strengths (FSS) that can be embedded within home visiting services. The FSS program is a skills-based program that incorporates elements of evidence-based practice, the Common Elements Treatment Approach (CETA), and materials informed and developed based on an Indigenous advisory group. The FSS program aims to help participants build self-efficacy and coping skills, as well as build stronger connections to others, the participants' community, and cultural resources. The investigators will use a randomized controlled trial, whereby half of the participants will receive FSS and the other half will receive an evidence-based nutrition education program. The investigators' study is grounded in participatory processes and led by a team of Indigenous and allied researchers.

Personalized Medication Management for Multiple Medications Safety
Chicago, Illinois
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a consultation with a Personalized Therapeutics Clinic, or PTC, will help participants lower the risk for side effects (drug-drug interactions and drug-gene interactions) when taking many medications and help providers improve prescribing decisions for participants. A PTC is a clinical that will test your genes to gather information about your health that may help guide prescribing advice and offer you new information about your prescriptions. Doctors leading this study will look for variations (differences) in your genes that may suggest that you are at greater risk of having side effects or a greater chance of benefiting from certain medications. Individuals in this study will participate for roughly 9 months.

Exercise for Student Mental Health
Toronto, Ontario
Post-secondary students report alarming rates of feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, anxious, and depressed. To better support student mental health, there is a well-documented need to improve the range and quality of mental health services available to students. Focussing on formalized treatment approaches and strategies supporting well-being in the campus community more generally are needed. Physical activity is an alternative therapeutic approach that could be implemented as an evidence-based lifestyle intervention for supporting mental health and well-being on post-secondary campuses.
Despite the growing evidence supporting physical activity for student mental health, there are significant knowledge gaps in the literature. First, there is a paucity of research exploring the effects of different delivery styles (i.e., one-on-one (1:1) vs. group) on primary (i.e., mental health symptomology including anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, psychological distress) and secondary (i.e., social support, social connectedness) outcomes. Secondly, the maintenance effects of a physical activity program on mental health or sustained physical activity behaviour change are largely unknown. Lastly, limited research has explored contextual implementation factors (e.g., intervention reach, adherence, and program satisfaction) that may influence the sustainability and scale-up of physical activity programs for student mental health. Examining contextual implementation factors is critical for optimizing physical activity intervention delivery and for facilitating wider dissemination of research findings into practice. The goal of this 3-arm parallel randomized controlled trial is to test the effectiveness of 1:1 physical activity intervention and group-based physical activity intervention compared to a wait-list control group in supporting post-secondary student mental health. The main questions include:
* Are there group differences between 1:1, group-based delivery, and waitlist control in the immediate (post-intervention) and follow-up (1-month) maintenance effects on the primary and secondary outcomes?
* Grounded in recommendations for process evaluation of complex interventions, what are contextual implementation factors that may be linked to variation in primary and secondary outcomes while offering insight for wider dissemination?
Trial participants will be randomly assigned to one of the following groups:
1. 1:1 physical activity training;
2. Group-based physical activity training consisting of small 5-8 person groups; or
3. Waitlist control. Students will participate in the physical activity intervention after the intervention and follow-up period (10 weeks); however, their participation will not be monitored or evaluated.
The physical activity training will involve a 6-week physical activity intervention consisting of weekly 1-hour sessions. Each session involves: (1) 30-minutes of behaviour change coaching (e.g., goal setting, action-planning, brainstorming strategies to overcome barriers to engaging in physical activity); and (2) 30-minutes of supervised and structured physical activity training. To address the aims of the study, participants will complete self-report questionnaires at baseline, post-intervention (following completion of the 6-week physical activity intervention), and 1-month following completion of the physical activity intervention. Questionnaires will assess demographic characteristics, primary outcomes (i.e., mental health symptomology including anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, psychological distress), secondary outcomes (i.e., social support, social connectedness, physical activity behaviour) and contextual implementation factors (e.g., intervention reach, adherence, and program satisfaction) that may be linked to variation in primary and secondary outcomes while offering insight for wider dissemination. It is hypothesized that there will be no group differences between 1:1 delivery and group-based delivery on the primary outcomes. It is also hypothesized that group-based delivery, in comparison to 1:1 delivery will achieve greater improvements and more favourable maintenance effects in the secondary outcomes. Lastly, it is hypothesized that in comparison to the control group, 1:1 delivery and group-based delivery will be more effective in achieving change in the primary and secondary outcomes.

Youth unemployment is a chronic problem in most societies. Some young adults are neither in employment, education or training (NEET), and are at high risk of chronic unemployment, social disengagement and poor quality of life. Identifying this high risk population and providing them with career skills training and opportunities is critical for their full participation in society. Vocational training programs provide an opportunity for these NEET youth to develop a skilled trade. Barriers to successful completion of these programs include high prevalence of mental health and substance use disorders among NEET youth. This study will use a daily self-report distress tool to identify vocational program trainees at risk of absence or drop-out due to mental health and/or substance abuse issues. These at-risk trainees will then be referred to a mental health crisis program through a fit-for-purpose referral process to accommodate their training program requirements. It is hypothesized that early identification and referral for mental health and substance abuse issues will reduce both program absence and drop-out rates and result in improved in long-term employment for these NEET youth.

Online Psychotherapy for Anxiety and Depression in Cancer Patients
Kingston, Ontario
The demand for mental health problems, particularly depression and anxiety, is three times greater in Oncology and Palliative Care Centres than in the general population. There are unique factors in this population that make them more susceptible to mental health challenges. The disease itself, the adjustment to a chronic/fatal diagnosis, and the treatment options can all perpetuate the development of mental illness. Despite the well-established association, there have been barriers to access suitable treatment for these patients.
Online Psychotherapy is an effective treatment option that may address many of these barriers. This modality has been proven effective in addressing depression and anxiety in other populations. To date, there has been no psychotherapy module developed specifically for oncology and palliative care patients to our knowledge. The aim is to establish the first academic e-psychotherapy treatment option to address mood and anxiety disorders in oncology and palliative care patients. The investigators will use the Online Psychotherapy Tool (OPTT), a secure cloud-based platform for online delivery of e-CBT, developed by the PI.
The proposed study aims to establish the feasibility and effectiveness of delivering online psychotherapy to oncology and palliative care patients who have a comorbid depressive or anxiety disorder. The patients will be enrolled in an 8-week program with a combination of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness techniques delivered via a series of modules. They will receive individualized feedback from a trained therapist weekly. It is hypothesized that delivering this psychotherapeutic intervention in this manner will have great adherence. The aim is to prove that it will improve the quality of life and decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety in this underserved patient population.

Living Healthy Program + Peer Coaching for Mental Health Issues
New York, New York
The goal of this study is to improve the mental health of home health aides, a workforce that provides care for adults at home but whose own health has been historically poor. The main questions the study aims to answer are:
* Will a health program called Living Healthy, which provides health education and support with positive thinking, be used by home health aides and do they like it?
* Does Living Healthy actually improve home health aides' mood compared to what they usually do to take care of themselves?
Participants in the study will get an 8-week health program called Living Healthy over 3 months. Some of the participants will also have a 'peer coach' who is another home health aide who's been trained to help them with the program and learn some ways to feel better.
The study will compare the experiences of home health aides who get Living Healthy plus a peer coach with those who only get the Living Healthy program.

Music and Visual Arts for Teen Mental Health
New York, New York
The primary goal of this interventional study is to explore whether 3 months of arts-based digital interventions can change the way in which teenagers (13-16 years of age) use social media and are affected by them. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Can we give teenagers new, stimulating, and more goal-oriented ways of using social media through arts-based digital trainings and active discussions around social media?
* Can these arts-based digital interventions also help teenagers to overcome the negative consequences of social media overuse (such as depression, anxiety, and reduced attention and cognitive performance)? Secondarily, this study also aims to explore the brain and behavioral traits associated with these arts-based interventions to better understand how they work.
Researchers will compare a music composition intervention with two other interventions: an active control intervention based on visual-arts instead of music (i.e., photography), and a passive approach to control for the mere pass of time.
Participants will:
* Complete a baseline and a post-intervention evaluation where researchers will obtain measures of cognitive performance (attention and executive functions, mainly), mood, mental health, brain structure and function, and social media usage and attitudes towards these platforms.
* Complete weekly measures regarding their use of social media platforms and their mood.
* Complete 3-month arts-based composition / edition intervention (based on music or visual-arts/photography), or the equivalent time with no intervention (passive control group).
The motivation of this study was driven by the observation that, in recent years, there has been an increasing use of social media and digital devices in teenagers, while the scientific community still does not fully understand the effects of the overuse of these digital means and platforms. Moreover, some of the negative effects described to be associated with the passive overuse of social media tap on the same brain structures that are benefited by musical and artistic trainings. Hence, we thought it could be worth trying to use arts-based training to help teenagers compensate for or overcome the negative effects of social media at the neural, cognitive, mood and mental health levels.
This study introduces novelty through three main aspects. Firstly, it employs a digital art creation approach that requires no classical art training, making it more accessible and less intimidating. Secondly, it incorporates commonly used digital devices (e.g., phones/tablets) and motivating environments into the learning process, integrating the development of new digital skills and the practice of critical thinking around the use of SM into normal classroom activities. Finally, the study employs a multi-methodological approach to explore the brain mechanisms underlying mental-health and cognitive changes resulting from arts-based interventions.
Finally, we believe that conclusions from SMART will:
* set the basis for developing preventive and therapeutic interventions for depression and anxiety in teenagers,
* promote educational programs that provide optimal tools for adolescents to navigate social media in a healthy manner, and
* inspire educational policy.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how healthcare providers can support youths' mental health. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
* Do youth (12 to 17 years of age) who engage in the 6-month HELP e-intervention have a larger improvement in emotional health (measured by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire) than youth who do not receive the intervention?
* Does engagement in the HELP e-intervention improve lifestyle behaviour (physical activity, sleep or screen time)?
* Do youth who engage in the 6-month HELP e-intervention utilize fewer mental healthcare resources, during and for 1 year following study participation, than youth who do not receive the intervention? Participants will receive the HELP intervention for 6 months, either immediately or after waiting 6 months from study enrollment. At 0, 3, 6, and 12 months, participants will answer a series of questionnaires to assess their emotional health and lifestyle behaviors. Researchers will compare the emotional health and lifestyle behaviors of youth who received HELP immediately to those who wait for 6 months prior to the intervention to see if their emotional health or lifestyle behaviors differ.

Music for Mental Health Issues During COVID-19
New Haven, Connecticut
Mental health vulnerability due to stress is increased in People of African Descent (PADs) in America due to disproportionate effects of racism, poverty, education, and criminal justice sentencing. Various meditation and mindfulness approaches have provided evidence of measured reductions in multiple negative dimensions of stress. However, the majority of these studies do not have an adequate representation of PADs or other marginalized groups and are not designed to be culturally relevant or community based. Music has been shown to alleviate multiple symptoms of stress and has been shown to be a preferred and effective support for meditation and mindfulness. However, its role in stress management in PADs engaged in meditation or mindfulness is seldom studied. This study aims to evaluate the effects of a virtual, community-based music mindfulness program on stress management in PAD community members with anxiety and depression during COVID19.

Music Mindfulness for Mental Health Issues
New Haven, Connecticut
Mental health vulnerability due to stress is increased in People of African Descent (PADs) in America due to disproportionate effects of racism, poverty, education, and criminal justice sentencing. Various meditation and mindfulness approaches have provided evidence of measured reductions in multiple negative dimensions of stress. However, the majority of these studies do not have an adequate representation of PADs or other marginalized groups and are not designed to be culturally relevant or community based. Music has been shown to alleviate multiple symptoms of stress and has been shown to be a preferred and effective support for meditation and mindfulness. However, its role in stress management in PADs engaged in meditation or mindfulness is seldom studied. This study aims to evaluate the effects of a virtual, community-based music mindfulness program on stress management in PAD community members with anxiety and depression during COVID19.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Mental Health Issue 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 Mental Health Issue 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 Mental Health Issue 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 Mental Health Issue 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 Mental Health Issue 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 Mental Health Issue clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Drama Therapy for Substance Use Disorders, Breathing Techniques + Guided Meditations for Mental Health and Weyera Intervention for Mental Health Issues to the Power online platform.
