简要总结
Investigators propose to conduct a pilot double-blind, parallel arm, randomized placebo-controlled trial evaluating the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of bright light therapy on reward system functioning among patients undergoing medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder.
详细描述
Bright light therapy (BLT) is a simple, safe, and accessible intervention that can effectively ameliorates sleep disruptions, as well as circadian misalignment and depressive symptoms, and could potentially improve reward system function among patients with OUD. Beyond seasonal affective disorder, BLT has shown efficacy as an intervention for non-seasonal depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder, which all exhibit significant impairment of the dopaminergic reward system and poor sleep quality as key symptoms. Investigators propose to conduct a pilot double-blind, parallel arm, randomized placebo-controlled trial evaluating the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of BLT on reward system functioning among patients undergoing medication-assisted treatment for OUD. The present study will establish feasibility for a larger randomized-clinical trial proposal.

研究组 & 干预措施
Bright light therapy group
Participants will receive 30-minute morning bright light therapy for 2 weeks. Participants will start the therapy within a few minutes of their designated wake up time, which is determined by their average wake time from the baseline week of sleep assessment.
干预措施: Wearable bright light therapy device (Device)
Dim light (placebo) group
Participants will receive 30-minute dim light (placebo) therapy for 2 weeks. Participants will start the therapy within a few minutes of their designated wake up time, which is determined by their average wake time from the baseline week of sleep assessment.
干预措施: Wearable placebo light therapy device (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility--adherence to intervention
时间窗: At 2 weeks post-treatment
The number of days bright light therapy was completed divided by the total number of treatment days
Acceptability of the intervention
时间窗: At 2 weeks post-treatment
It will be measured by the Global Satisfaction subscale in an adapted version of the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication. The scores are calculated for each of the subscales, which range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating higher patient satisfaction with the intervention.
Changes in reward valuation
时间窗: Baseline and 2 weeks post-treatment
Delayed Discounting Task will be used to assess reward valuation
Feasibility--drop-out rate
时间窗: At 2 weeks post-treatment
From enrollment to post-treatment assessment
Changes in reward learning
时间窗: Baseline and 2 weeks post-treatment
Probabilistic Reward Task will be used to assess reward learning
Changes in Opioid Craving
时间窗: Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks)
To assess daily opioid craving, participants will be asked to rate the degree to which they have an urge to use illicit opioids in the moment on a 0-100 Visual Analogue Scale, with 0 being "Not at All" and 100 being "Extremely." This will be assessed multiple times per day via ecological momentary assessments. The timing of administration will be pseudo-randomized, but will broadly cover morning, midday and evening. Higher scores indicate greater opioid craving.
次要结局
- Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO)(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Positive Affect(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Illicit Opioid Use Frequency(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Total Sleep Time (TST)(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Sleep Onset Latency (SOL)(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Negative Affect(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
- Sleep Efficiency (SE)(Daily for the 1 week at baseline and throughout the treatment period (up to 2 weeks))
