Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The DIGITS Trial addresses a critical knowledge gap: How to best implement digital treatments for opioids and other substance use disorders in primary care. The DIGITS Trial is a partnership between Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute (KPWHRI) in Seattle, and Kaiser Permanente Washington, a healthcare delivery system in Washington State.

In this study, the FDA-authorized reSET and reSET-O digital therapeutics will be implemented in Kaiser Permanente Washington primary care clinics. The study will evaluate the extent to which two implementation strategy interventions, health coaching and practice coaching, improve the implementation. Primary care clinics are randomized to receive these implementation strategy interventions. Each clinic will have a 12-month active implementation period beginning on its date of randomization. To study the continued use of reSET and reSET-O after the active implementation period is completed, a sustainment period of up 12 months will follow the active implementation period.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Specific Aims of the DIGITS Trial are to:

1. Estimate the effect of practice facilitation and health coaching implementation strategies in increasing the reach and fidelity of a digital therapeutic for substance use disorders in primary care clinics.
2. Compare the population-level cost-effectiveness of each implementation strategy in increasing reach, fidelity, and abstinence.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

FACTORIAL

Cluster-randomized trial with 2x2 factorial randomization of two experimental strategies resulting in four arms: 2x2 factorial design to four approaches: (1) "standard implementation"; (2) "standard implementation plus practice facilitation"; (3) "standard implementation plus health coach"; and (4) "standard implementation plus both.

Outcome Assessors
All outcomes are derived from secondary administrative data.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Standard Implementation

All primary care clinics will implement reSET and reSET-O using standard implementation approach.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Standard implementation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Brief clinician training and an implementation toolkit consisting of job aids, patient educational materials, scripted conversations, electronic health record tools, and a population management workbench.

Standard Implementation Plus Health Coaching

The clinics in this arm will implement reSET and reSET-O with a standard implementation strategy and patients at the clinic will receive support from a health coach to help them engage with reSET and reSET-O.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Standard implementation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Brief clinician training and an implementation toolkit consisting of job aids, patient educational materials, scripted conversations, electronic health record tools, and a population management workbench.

Health Coaching

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The clinic is provided access to a health coach who conducts outreach with patients. The health coach facilitates engagement with the digital therapeutic and encourages contact with the care team.

Standard Implementation Plus Practice Facilitation

The clinics in this arm will implement reSET and reSET-O with a standard implementation strategy and a practice facilitator will provide the clinic with support for implementation.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Standard implementation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Brief clinician training and an implementation toolkit consisting of job aids, patient educational materials, scripted conversations, electronic health record tools, and a population management workbench.

Practice Facilitation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

A trained facilitator provides support for implementation by delivering the following interventions to clinic staff: Bolster Education, Audit and Provide Feedback, Support Plan-Do-Study-Act Cycles, Engage Others in Change.

Standard Implementation Plus Health Coaching and Practice Facilitation

The clinics in this arm will implement reSET and reSET-O with a standard implementation strategy and patients at the clinic will receive support from a health coach to help them engage with reSET and reSET-O. Additionally, a practice facilitator will provide the clinic with support for implementation.
