Washington, District of Columbia
We aim to refine and pilot test an 8-week phone- and app-based intervention to promote hope, and thereby mitigate life disruption caused by cancer diagnosis and treatment, among young adults (YAs); our proposal involves (Aim 1) formative research among YA survivors and healthcare providers; and (Aim 2) an randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the intervention vs. attention control among 150 YA cancer survivors. The proposed research is innovative in its use of: 1) a novel intervention target - hope - as a mechanism for addressing goal-disruption and quality of life (QOL) among YA survivors; and 2) novel mHealth components and population-based recruitment strategy (via social media) that are particularly relevant to YA survivors and those with potentially limited access to healthcare. This proposal has potential high impact due to the number of YA cancer survivors for whom the intervention may be relevant, the intervention's potential utility in enhancing hope and QOL among YAs, and its reach/scalability.

Family-Centered Palliative Care for Children with Rare Diseases
Washington, District of Columbia
Children with ultra-rare or complex rare diseases are routinely excluded from research studies because of their conditions, creating a health disparity. However, new statistical techniques make it possible to study small samples of heterogeneous populations. We propose to study the palliative care needs of family caregivers of children with ultra-rare diseases and to pilot test a palliative care needs assessment and advance care planning intervention to facilitate discussions about the future medical care choices families are likely to be asked to make for their child.

Exercise and Brain Stimulation for Anxiety
Richmond, Virginia
Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health diagnosis in the US; 19.1% of U.S. adults (23.4% for females and 14.3% for males). In addition, the Global Burden of Disease study (2010) found that anxiety disorders were the sixth leading cause of disability (years of life lived with disability). These debilitating disorders are characterized by excessive worry and fear about everyday situations, and physical symptoms including restlessness, being easily fatigued, difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, or sleep disturbance. Furthermore, anxiety is linked to other mental disorders including depression and substance abuse; is associated with cardiovascular disease risk factors and a higher rate of cardiovascular disease; and is related to premature mortality. These data have led to the investigation of a breadth of plausible treatments for anxiety, including medications and psychotherapy. However, likely due to the breadth of complex mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of anxiety disorders and the unfavorable side effects of various medications, a considerable number of individuals do not have a satisfactory response to these treatments. This has led investigators to examine plausible novel interventions to alleviate anxiety and its symptoms.

Recovery Bridge Intervention for Mental Health Disorders
Baltimore, Maryland
The time following discharge from psychiatric hospitalization is a high-risk period and has been associated with a range of negative outcomes including high rates of hospital readmission and suicide. The purpose of this proposal is to: 1) create a Peer Specialist facilitated intervention, called Recovery Bridge, designed to facilitate the transition from inpatient psychiatric hospitalization to community living; 2) examine feasibility, fidelity, and acceptability; and preliminarily explore the impact of the intervention on: a) readmission rates and connection to outpatient care compared to a control group identified from administrative data; and b) change in recovery and quality of life measures over time in the intervention participants. Results from the proposed open pilot trial will set the stage for next steps including a larger effectiveness trial followed by a possible hybrid-I effectiveness/implementation trial to inform future dissemination and implementation of the intervention more broadly across the VA.

Enhanced Care Planning for Multiple Chronic Conditions
Richmond, Virginia
Patients with multiple chronic conditions (MCC) have a range of needs that extend beyond traditional medical care, including behavioral, mental health, and social needs. While primary care does its best to address these needs, few practices can undertake a systematic approach without broader health system and coordinated community support. Fortunately, communities and health systems are investing in new models of care to address these needs. New tools are emerging that allow for enhanced care planning to identify and prioritize patients' needs based on their values, preferences, social, and clinical context. Additionally, support systems to promote partnerships between patients and clinical and community care teams are emerging. Building on work occurring as part of the Richmond Accountable Health Community, the investigators propose to (a) evaluate the implementation of an enhanced care planning approach, paired with community-clinical linkages support to address health behavior, mental health, and social needs; (b) determine within a randomized controlled trial the benefit of this approach compared to usual care; and (c) assess which person, family, community, and system contextual factors that influence MCC.

Telehealth Mental Health Support for Developmental Disabilities
Concord, North Carolina
Roughly 40% of those with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) have mental health needs, which is twice the national average. Nevertheless, there is dearth of evidenced-based mental health treatment for youth and young adults with IDD. The disparity in access to mental health care places those with IDD at greater risk of crisis service use. While telemental health studies demonstrate potential to enhance access to care, little of this research includes those with IDD, or crisis prevention and intervention. This project will refine and evaluate telemental health services for youth and young adults with IDD delivered within START (Systemic, Therapeutic, Assessment, Resources, and Treatment), a national, evidence-based model of crisis prevention and intervention for people with IDD. The study will begin with stakeholder feedback (service recipients, families, and providers) regarding telemental health services (Aim 1). Results will be used to refine the intervention. Our team will then compare telemental health versus in-person START services in a randomized control trial (Aim 2). To our knowledge, this will be the first trial of a telemental health crisis program for the IDD population. The final goal is to understand if outcomes vary across subpopulations (Aim 3) and to identify potential disparities. If found, the investigators will work with service users, families and providers to develop a strategy to address identified disparities in outcomes. The study will be executed by an interdisciplinary team of experts engaged with stakeholder partners. Understanding the benefits of specific telemental health methods has important implications to the design of interventions, within and outside of START. This telemental health study offers promise to address disparities in access to mental health care for people with IDD.

Self-Management Program for Spinal Cord Injury
Richmond, Virginia
About 25-51% of adults with acquired spinal cord injury (SCI) have "AIS D" SCI, the lowest severity grade of neurologic injury. Veterans with AIS D SCI generally have better outcomes in mobility, community integration, and employment. However, counterintuitively, they are also at higher risk of poor subjective well-being (SWB) and related psychosocial outcomes. Preliminary evidence suggests that poorer SWB in this group is associated with distinctive, modifiable factors such as less intensity of acute rehabilitation services, limited development of instrumental and social support networks, and underdeveloped disability identity. A significant gap in the care of Veterans with AIS D SCI is that they are unlikely to receive rehabilitation that is responsive to their specific experiences and needs. The proposed study will develop a novel, self-management based program to help Veterans with AIS D SCI. This study is highly significant, as creation of the proposed program is expected to improve SWB and lifetime psychosocial functioning for Veterans with AIS D SCI.

Computer-Based Intervention + Peer Support for HIV/AIDS and Alcohol Abuse
Baltimore, Maryland
Unhealthy alcohol use among women with and at risk for HIV can interrupt critical steps in the HIV prevention and care continuum, is associated with HIV transmission risk behaviors, and contributes to health disparities. Thus it is critical to accurately identify alcohol use and implement alcohol interventions among women with and at risk for HIV to optimize health outcomes. The proposed pilot study will examine the implementation and effects of a computer delivered brief alcohol intervention with peer navigation/Community Health Worker compared to usual care on alcohol use, linkage to health services, and uptake of HIV prevention practices.

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.

THRiVE Program for Mental Health in Veterans
Durham, North Carolina
The objective of this study is to develop and pilot a program designed to improve mental health outcomes and reduce suicide risk during the transition from military to civilian life. It is hypothesized that the Transition Health and Resilience through Valued Experiences (THRiVE) program, to be developed as part of this study, will meet participant recruitment, retention, and satisfaction benchmarks (primary outcomes) and show positive preliminary effects on mental health symptoms, risk factors for suicidal ideation, and psychosocial functioning outcomes (secondary outcomes).
The specific aims of this study are to:
1. Develop a small-group, peer-led, cross-cutting prevention program for newly separated veterans (NSVs) called THRiVE and
2. Evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of the THRiVE program on mental health symptoms, risk factors for suicidal ideation, and psychosocial functioning outcomes.
Up to 40 NSVs participating in this Stage 1 pilot study will complete validated self-report measures at baseline, immediately after completing the THRiVE program (post-THRiVE), and 3 months after completing the THRiVE program (follow-up). The duration of a participant's time in the study is anticipated to be 5 months.

Intensive Therapy for PTSD
Durham, North Carolina
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is prevalent among Veterans and effective evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) for PTSD have been implemented within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). However, retention in PTSD EBPs is poor. Premature dropout is associated with worse clinical outcomes and greater healthcare utilization. Delivery of PTSD EBPs in a massed format, typically three or more days per week delivered within a month, have shown promise for increasing retention. The present study is a pilot feasibility and acceptability study comparing massed PTSD treatment to treatment as usual (e.g., typically weekly treatment).

Durham, North Carolina
The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to conduct a second, independent evaluation the implementation and impact of the Durham Connects (DC) brief universal nurse home-visiting program to prevent child maltreatment and improve child and family health and well-being. Durham Connects is the first home-visiting program that is designed to prevent child maltreatment and improve health and well-being outcomes in an entire community population.
Program evaluation will test four hypotheses: 1) The program can be implemented with population reach, fidelity to the manualized intervention protocol, and reliability in assessment of family risk; 2) Random assignment to the Durham Connects program will be associated with lower rates of child maltreatment and emergency department maltreatment-related injuries, better pediatric care, better parental functioning, and better child well-being than assignment as control; 2) Intervention effect sizes will be larger for higher-risk groups; and 3) Community resource use and enhanced family functioning will mediate the positive impact of Durham Connects on outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Mental Health 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 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 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 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 medical study?
