Native HEALTH for Alcohol Consumption

Fredericton, New Brunswick
The objective of this project is to develop and obtain preliminary data on a culturally grounded, trauma-informed alcohol intervention. The specific aims are to (1) use Community-Based Participatory Research methods to deepen partnerships with First Nation through capacity-building and knowledge sharing; (2) collect and apply qualitative data to develop a culturally grounded, trauma-informed alcohol intervention that is focused on historical trauma for use with a First Nation sample; and (3) conduct a pilot RCT study to examine acceptability, sustainability, and initial efficacy data of the intervention compared to waitlist control. This work is important, timely, and innovative. Addressing alcohol use has important implications for the health of Indigenous populations.

Children are highly sensitive to adversity during their first five years of life, with exposure to chronic parental mental illness (MI) consistently linked to socio-emotional impairments and mental health problems in children. Children born during the COVID-19 pandemic were exposed to unprecedented level of parental distress, with parental MI reported at three times the pre-pandemic rates. This situation underscored a pressing need for scalable solutions to foster positive mental health and developmental outcomes for a generation of children. In response, the investigators developed the Building Emotional Awareness and Mental Health (BEAM) program, an innovative mobile health (mHealth) solution for parents of young children. Clinical trials to date evaluating BEAM have shown promising results, demonstrating reductions in parent depression, anxiety, and harsh parenting practices. This trial involves an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design with co-primary aims of (1) determining BEAM's effectiveness in improving child mental health and developmental outcomes, and (2) evaluating the implementation of BEAM in the community through metrics such as feasibility, acceptability, and uptake. The secondary aim of this trial is to measure BEAM's effectiveness in improving long-term biopsychosocial family outcomes using administrative data. A final exploratory aim of this trial will measure the cost-utility of delivering BEAM relative to extant health programming. This trial will evaluate the effectiveness of implementing the BEAM intervention in the community with a sample of 400 parent participants with a child aged 24-71 months. Study participants will complete 12 weeks of psychoeducation modules in the BEAM app, with access to an online social support forum and check ins with a peer coach. Assessments of parent and child symptoms will occur at pre-test before BEAM begins (T1), immediately after the last week of the BEAM intervention (post-test, T2), 6-month follow-up (T3), and 12-month follow-up (T4). Beginning in 2025, the trial offers participants the option to invite one parenting partner to join them in the program. A parenting partner is defined as a co-parent (e.g., the child's mother, father, or step-parent) or another primary caregiver (e.g., a grandparent, cousin, uncle, or aunt). Each participant may invite one such individual, hereafter referred to as a "co-parent." Co-parents will have access to the BEAM intervention and all its features, with the exception of peer coaching. Co-parents will be eligible to complete the same outcome measures at the same timepoints as participants. Three differences that will separate co-parents from participants are: (1) co-parents will not be asked to complete the ASQ:2-SE or ASQ-3 secondary outcome measures; (2) co-parents will not have access to peer coaching, and (3) co-parents will not be required to be experiencing moderate to severe symptoms of depression, anxiety, parenting stress, and/or anger. (Please see Eligibility \> Eligibility Criteria for the less restrictive inclusion and exclusion criteria for co-parents.) Co-parents will not be counted toward the trial sample size of n=400, and will not be included in primary analyses. Instead, co-parent data will be used in sub-studies to address exploratory research questions. The BEAM program offers a promising solution to addressing elevated parental mental health symptoms, parenting stress, and related child functioning concerns. The present implementation trial aims to extend the groundwork established by an open pilot trial and RCT of the BEAM program, in a next step of testing BEAM's readiness for nationwide scaling.

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Psychological 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 Psychological 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 Psychological 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 Psychological 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 Psychological 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 Psychological clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Psychosocial Intervention for Brain Cancer, Stress Inoculation Training for Stress and Mind-Body Conditioning for Student Burnout to the Power online platform.
