Adapting the "Do More, Feel Better" Intervention for Older People Living With HIV

28. Oktober 2026 aktualisiert von: Susan Graham, University of Washington

More than half of people living with HIV (PWH) in the United States are 50 years of age or older. Older PWH have a 2.3-fold increased risk of depression compared to their peers without HIV. The investigator team has developed a streamlined lay-delivered behavioral activation intervention called "Do More, Feel Better" that has been shown to decrease depressive symptoms among older adults obtaining services in community senior centers. The investigators propose to (1) identify barriers and facilitators to improving mental health among older PWH by using this intervention in the context of Ryan White case management services, (2) adapt and enhance the intervention to meet the needs of older PWH, and (3) conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and appropriateness of the adapted DMFB intervention.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

More than half of people living with HIV (PWH) in the United States (US) are 50 years of age or older. Compared with those without HIV, older PWH have 2.3-fold increased risk of depression. The impact of unmitigated mental health symptoms and related conditions among this growing population is significant and includes social isolation, loss of independence, and poor engagement with healthcare, undermining progress towards ending the HIV epidemic. Due to a shortage behavioral health providers, there is growing interest in innovative interventions using community-based, peer-led approaches to improve access to effective mental health services. Behavioral activation is an evidence-based intervention that has shown promise for reducing depressive symptoms among older adults. The investigator team has developed a streamlined lay-delivered behavioral activation intervention called "Do More, Feel Better" (DMFB) that has been shown to decrease depressive symptoms among depressed (PHQ-9 ≥10) older adults obtaining services in community senior centers. Delivery of an adapted version of the DMFB intervention for older PWH with poor access to professional counseling could be relatively straightforward within the existing Ryan White HIV/AIDS program, supported by organizations that provide essential services such as non-medical case management to low-income PWH. Because the intervention is tailored to individual preferences and needs, it promises to be acceptable, especially after careful adaptation using input from community members and stakeholders. This study's aims are therefore: (1) to understand the impact of mental health issues on HIV care, functioning, and quality of life and identify multi-level barriers and facilitators that could influence participation in and delivery of an adapted DMFB intervention; (2) to adapt and enhance the DMFB intervention for delivery by case management program staff or volunteers to older PWH, following the ADAPT-ITT model in collaboration with community partners; and (3) to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and appropriateness of the adapted DMFB intervention compared to clinician-delivered Behavioral Activation therapy over 3 months in a pilot randomized controlled trial. Results of this research will have high impact by adapting an effective lay-delivered behavioral activation intervention for older PWH that is low-cost, scalable, and easily tailored to individual preferences and needs. Ongoing work on the DMFB intervention indicates that this lay-delivered intervention has great potential to produce concrete improvements in mental health and quality of life. The study's multidisciplinary team has a strong record of research on HIV care, geriatric mental health, HIV and aging, behavioral health and implementation science, and the experience with mixed methods approaches, intervention adaptation, and clinical trials necessary to successfully carry out this work. Adaptation of the DMFB intervention has the potential to be acceptable, feasible, effective and scalable when delivered within case management organizations, improving the lives and HIV outcomes of older PWH.

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Kein Eingriff: Usual care

The control condition will be usual care, which will likely involve some period waiting for an intake followed by supportive counseling sessions for treating depressive symptoms. Receipt of counseling and other supportive services during the trial for both the intervention and usual care groups will be closely tracked.

Experimental: Adapted "Do More, Feel Better" Intervention

Lay-delivered behavioral activation intervention, adapted based on interviews and theater testing with the target audience

The adapted behavioral activation intervention will be delivered by trained lay interventionists and provided over 9 weekly sessions lasting 45-60 minutes in person, by telephone, or by Zoom. This intervention currently consists of an initial meeting for psychoeducation and compilation of a tailored list of enjoyable and rewarding activities the client will draw from and schedule, followed by 8 weekly sessions to monitor symptoms, review homework, and continue daily activity scheduling.

Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (Ham-D)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, week 3, week 6, week 9, week 12

The Ham-D 24-item scale is a semi-structured clinical interview that assesses depression severity. Scores range from 0 to 76, with higher scores indicating greater depressive-symptom severity. Scores 0-7 represent transient to no depressive symptoms; 8-13 mild depression; 14-18 moderate depression; 19-22 severe depression and above 22 very severe depression.

Baseline, week 3, week 6, week 9, week 12
Behavioral activation for depression scale (BADS)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, week 3, week 6, week 9, week 12

The BADS is a 25-item scale assessing overall activity level based on four factors: activation, avoidance/rumination, work/school impairment and social impairment. Each item ranges from 0 ('not at all') to 6 ('completely'); total scores range from 0 to 150. Higher total scores indicate better behavioral activation and fewer depressive-avoidance behaviors.
