简要总结
This pilot, three-arm randomized clinical trial (N=40; 2:1:1) will evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a digitally enhanced stepped-care approach for depression treatment in primary care. Participants will be randomized to: (1) stepped-care beginning with a self-guided Behavioral Activation app (Moodivate), with stepping to clinician-delivered telebehavioral health Behavioral Activation at Week 2 based on app engagement and early PHQ-9 change; (2) telebehavioral health Behavioral Activation; or (3) Moodivate alone. The primary endpoint is feasibility of the stepped-care approach, defined as continued engagement after stepping (≥1 Moodivate use/week for >4 weeks or ≥4 therapy sessions). The secondary endpoint is change in PHQ-9 scores from baseline through Week 12. The study will be conducted within MUSC Primary Care clinics across South Carolina using remote screening, e-consent, and REDCap assessments.

研究组 & 干预措施
Digitally-Enhanced Stepped Care
Participants randomized to the Digitally-Enhanced Stepped Care condition will be instructed to utilize a Behavioral Activation therapy focused mobile application called "Moodivate" regularly, at least once per day, for the treatment of depressed mood among cancer survivors. Participants in the Digitally-Enhanced Stepped Care group will receive a download code to download the Moodivate mobile application. Moodivate is a mobile app for individuals with elevated symptoms of depression. Within the app, users identify values, create activities, schedule activities, and rate mood daily. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaire measures at baseline and weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12. App engagement will be passively monitored for two weeks following initial download to determine whether care needs to be stepped up to guideline-concordant standard care.
干预措施: Behavioral Activation Therapy App (Behavioral)
Moodivate Only
Participants randomized to the Moodivate condition will be instructed to utilize Moodivate regularly, at least once per day, for the treatment of depressed mood. Participants in the Moodivate group will receive a download code to download the Moodivate mobile application. Moodivate is a mobile app for individuals with elevated symptoms of depression. Within the app, users identify values, create activities, schedule activities, and rate mood daily. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaire measures at baseline and weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12.
干预措施: Behavioral Activation Therapy App (Behavioral)
Telebehavioral Health
Participants randomized to the Telebehavioral Health condition will receive 8 sessions of telehealth-delivered Behavioral Activation therapy with a mental health provider over a 10 week period. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaire measures at baseline and weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10.
