Zelfmanagement van pijn en patiëntgerichte dosering voor pijn en behandeling met opioïden bij retentie (TREETOP)

2 november 2026 bijgewerkt door: Erin Winstanley

Zelfmanagement van pijn en patiëntgerichte dosering voor pijn en retentie bij verslavingszorg op kantoor: een gerandomiseerde studie

This study seeks to improve the treatment of chronic pain in people who are taking buprenorphine (also known as Suboxone, Subutex, Zubsolv).

The research study is testing two different interventions along with usual clinical care:

  1. Pain Self-Management (PSM): an educational program in which individuals with chronic pain work with a trained pain coach and a pain peer to explore strategies to effectively manage the daily problems that arise from chronic pain.
  2. Patient-Oriented Dosing (POD): an alternative dosing of buprenorphine which will be adjusted based on pain levels.

The interventions will take place over a period of 12 weeks (3 months). Additionally, participants will complete surveys every 3 months for a period of 1 year (total of 5 survey visits). Participants will receive $50 compensation for each survey visit completed (up to $250 over one year) and can receive up to an additional $100 bonus compensation.

There are risks associated with participating in the study, including breach of confidentiality, psychological distress caused by discussing difficult topics, and risks associated with the POD intervention.

Actieve vergelijker: Usual Care + Standard Buprenorphine Dosing

Usual care, or "treatment as usual," refers to the standard of care that participants receive at their office-based addiction treatment (OBAT) clinic. This includes discussing issues related to chronic pain and opioid use (e.g., buprenorphine) with their provider and receiving clinical care for these conditions.

Participants will continue standard buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone dosing as part of normal clinical care.

This includes discussing issues related to chronic pain and opioid use (e.g., buprenorphine) with their provider and receiving clinical care for these conditions.

Patient-oriented dosing (POD) is a promising approach to using buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone for treating participants with both opioid use disorder (OUD) and chronic pain. POD allows titration of buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone dosing up to 32mg/day, split into four doses per day, based on the participant's pain level.

Patient-oriented dosing (POD) is a promising approach to using buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone to treat individuals with both OUD and chronic pain. It is based on existing evidence related to buprenorphine for the treatment of pain. POD allows participants to receive a daily dosage of bup up to 32mg/day, split up to 4 times per day.

A response-guided dosing strategy, in which buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone doses will be titrated based on a participant response, will be used to identify a dose regimen that is safe and effective. Due to inter-individual pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic variability, POD dosing will be individualized based on a participant's pain intensity and interference.

Experimenteel: Pain Self-Management (PSM) + Standard Buprenorphine Dosing

Pain self-management (PSM) is a manualized behavioral intervention tailored for patients in outpatient-based addiction treatment (OBAT) programs. PSM consists of 12 intervention sessions, comprising 6 group sessions and 6 individual sessions.

Participants will continue standard buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone dosing as part of normal clinical care.

Participants will continue standard buprenorphine or buprenorphine/naloxone dosing as part of normal clinical care.

Pain self-management (PSM) is a manualized behavioral intervention consisting of 12 sessions, comprising 6 group and 6 individual sessions. The first session will be individual, followed by a group session, and then alternating weekly for the remainder of the intervention.

Individual sessions will be led by a staff Interventionist trained in the pain self-management intervention. The interventionist will guide participants through a PSM study manual, providing education, teaching associated skills, and assisting with goal setting.

Group sessions will be led by a Peer Facilitator who has experience with chronic pain, opioid use disorder, and buprenorphine treatment. These sessions will not have specific content but will serve as supportive forums for participants to discuss their experiences with the intervention, share tips for managing chronic pain, and provide mutual support.

Change from Baseline in Pain Interference as Assessed by the PROMIS SF v1.0 - Pain Interference 4a at 3 months Post-baseline
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 3 Months

The PROMIS Pain Interference - Short Form 4a is a validated, self-report 4-item tool assessing pain interference over the past 7 days. The PROMIS SF v1.0 - Pain Interference 4a consists of 4 questions and uses a 5-point scale, ranging from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much). The total raw score equals the sum the values of the response to each question. The raw score is converted to a T-score. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. A higher PROMIS T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For negatively-worded concepts like pain interference, a T-score of 60 is one SD worse than average. That is, a person has more problems with pain hindering activities. By comparison, a pain interference T-score of 40 is one SD better than average.

Change from Baseline in Overall Pain as Assessed by the PEG at 3 months Post-baseline
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 3 Months

The Pain, Enjoyment, and General Activity (PEG) Scale is a validated, self-report 3-item tool assessing pain intensity and interference over the past week. The PEG scale consists of 3 separate numerical scales. Each scale has ratings ranging from 0-10. The PEG score is calculated by averaging the three numbers; a higher score indicates greater pain.

The Pain Catastrophizing Scale is a validated, self-report 6-item tool assessing assess pain catastrophizing for chronic pain. The PCS-6 uses a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (all the time). The total score ranges from 0 to 24, with higher score representing greater catastrophic thinking.

Number of Days Non-prescribed Opioids were Used in the past 30 days as Assessed by the Modified ASI at 3-months Post-baseline
Tijdsspanne: 3 Months

The modified ASI is a validated, self-report tool which includes questions from the Addiction Severity Index section on drug and alcohol use and includes questions about specific opioids used. The number of days in the last 30 that a participant reports using heroin, fentanyl, and/or opioid analgesics (percocet, oxycodone, oxycontin, vicodin, dilaudid, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, morphine, or codeine) will be summed for the outcome "Number of days non-prescribed opioids were used in the past 30 days." Number of days may range from 0 to 90.

Total score on the IMPOWR Opioid Misuse Screening scale at 3 months Post-baseline

The IMPOWR Opioid Misuse Screening scale is an exploratory, self-report scale consisting of 4 questions about the use of prescribed pain medications. Each question response ranges from Never (0) to Almost Always (4) with a possible summed score ranging from 0 to 16, with higher scores indicating more severe misuse.

Change from Baseline in Self-efficacy as Assessed by the PROMIS Self-Efficacy for Managing Symptoms SF-4a at 3 months Post-baseline
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 3 Months

The PROMIS Self-Efficacy for Managing Symptoms - Short Form 4a is a validated, self-report 4-item tool assessing current level of confidence to managing symptoms in relation to a chronic condition. The PROMIS SF v1.0 - Pain Interference 4a consists of 4 questions and uses a 5-point scale, ranging from 1 (I am not confident at all) to 5 ( I am very confident). The total raw score equals the sum the values of the response to each question. The raw score is converted to a T-score. The T-score rescales the raw score into a standardized score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. A higher PROMIS T-score represents more of the concept being measured. For example, a T-score of 55 on the PROMIS Self-Efficacy for Managing Emotions indicates that the respondent has greater self-efficacy for managing their emotions than the general chronic condition population (i.e., half a standard deviation higher).
