简要总结
The purpose of this study is to examine whether youth with OCD who benefit from CBT augmentation to SRI can discontinue their medication without relapse over 24 weeks.
详细描述
Pediatric obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common, chronic, and severe psychiatric disorder. Currently, many youth with OCD are treated with medication, such as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI); however, only a subset of them responds to SRI. Data show that the addition of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to SRI partial responders is effective although extended SRI use with CBT can attenuate combined treatment outcomes. This placebo-controlled study will enroll pediatric OCD patients to examine if those who benefit from CBT augmentation can discontinue their SRI successfully without relapse over 24-weeks. This study will also bank genomic samples for future analysis when polygenic risk scores for OCD may become available.
This study will be conducted in two phases. In Phase I, all participants will receive a web-based CBT for 12 to 18 weeks. At the end of Phase I, those who achieve wellness indicated by CY-BOCS ≤ 12 and ≥ 50% reduction since baseline for 3 consecutive weeks, will go on to the next phase. In Phase II, participants will be randomized into two groups: 1) Continued SRI and 2) Discontinuation titration to placebo. In this phase, all participants will receive web-based CBT maintenance sessions and attend medication visits for 24 weeks. At 12 months after the end of Phase II, all participants will complete a follow-up assessment.

- •The child has severe current suicidal/homicidal ideation and/or self-injury requiring medical intervention.

研究组 & 干预措施
Discontinuation titration to placebo
After post-phase I assessment, participants who are eligible will be randomized to 2) Discontinuation titration to placebo. For these participants, the placebo substitution in an increasing proportion of capsules will be implemented until all drug is withdrawn.
干预措施: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Behavioral)
Open label CBT
During Phase I, all participants will receive open label cognitive-behavioral therapy. Only those who achieve significant benefit will be able to most on to the post-phase I assessment, and then to the random assignment to Continued SRI or Discontinuation titration to placebo arms.
干预措施: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Behavioral)
Continued SRI
After post-phase I assessment, participants who are eligible will be randomized to 1) Continued SRI. For these participants, the medication (SRI) will be provided at a consistent dosage.
干预措施: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Behavioral)
