Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications from clinical investigators to participate in the National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network (CTN).NIDA intends to expand its research to develop and test interventions for the management of the wide spectrum of substance use disorders (SUD) with input from and collaboration with clinical research investigators, healthcare providers, patients and relevant stakeholders. It is expected that successful applicants will describe working alliances with existing and newly created practice-based primary care or other general medical research networks. Through such collaborations, the expanded CTN will execute a comprehensive and staged treatment research agenda to generate the research evidence needed for the integrated management of patients with substance misuse/SUD at general medical settings and linked specialty care treatment settings. This expansion of the CTN also provides an opportunity for community-based SUD treatment provider partners to evaluate integrated and collaborative treatment models for the management of patients with higher-severity SUDs. Together, the CTN will produce much needed, high integrity, evidence-based interventions for a range of substance use problems with the goal of improving the health outcomes of this Nation.
