NCT06564792
Methamphetamine use and associated sequelae have been rising, and represent a major barrier to successful control of the HIV epidemic. Methamphetamine use is associated with poor adherence to antiretroviral therapy for HIV, and the investigators propose a trial of contingency management (providing incentives for behavioral change) targeting both reduced methamphetamine use and improved adherence to HIV medications. The investigators will utilize a real-time, point-of-care urine assay for both outcomes, aiming to evaluate feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of HIV care-based contingency management. Hair levels will also be studied as a quantitative outcome for reduction in methamphetamine use.
NCT03500328
FDA-approved multiple sclerosis (MS) disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) target the relapsing phase of MS but have minimal impact once the progressive phase has begun. It is unclear if, in the relapsing phase, there is an advantage of early aggressive therapy with respect to preventing long-term disability. The infectious risks and other complications associated with higher-efficacy treatments highlight the need to quantify their effectiveness in preventing disability. The TRaditional versus Early Aggressive Therapy for MS (TREAT-MS) trial is a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial that has two primary aims: 1) to evaluate, jointly and independently among patients deemed at higher risk vs. lower risk for disability accumulation, whether an "early aggressive" therapy approach, versus starting with a traditional, first-line therapy, influences the intermediate-term risk of disability, and 2) to evaluate if, among patients deemed at lower risk for disability who start on first-line MS therapies but experience breakthrough disease, those who switch to a higher-efficacy versus a new first-line therapy have different intermediate-term risk of disability.
