News from the Pacific Northwest Node: Updates from CTN-0082 and CTN-0102-XR
CTN-0082 update CTN-0082 had another paper published: Predicting Willingness to Use MOUD: An Application of the Theory of Reasoned Action and Theory of Planned-Behavior. Lancaster C, et al. Journal of Drug Issues 2025 (in press). The paper reports on a study that used the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to assess willingness to use 3 medications (methadone, buprenorphine, naltrexone) for opioid use disorder (MOUD) among people who use opioids (PWUOs). Findings partially supported the TRA but not TPB, with positive attitudes associated with greater willingness to use all three types of MOUD, pointing to the value of syringe services programs as a low threshold hub for treatment engagement. CTN-0102-XR update Providence Northeast Washington Medical Group – Colville finished all participant involvement in CTN-102-XR ending with an unheard of 100% retention rate! We want to send a huge congratulations to the team in Colville for their excellent work engaging participants and providing top notch care!

News from the Health Systems Node
Join the Health Systems Node on December 4 for this virtual seminar: The Right Support at the Right Time: Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAIs) for Substance Use with Dr. Kristina Phillips December 4, 2025 10 am – 11 am PT Just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs) represent a cutting-edge approach to promoting healthier behaviors, including the reduction of substance use. By delivering personalized, real-time support precisely when individuals need it most, JITAIs have the potential to transform the landscape of mobile health (mHealth). In this seminar, Dr. Kristina Phillips will introduce the conceptual and methodological foundations of JITAIs, including a focus on intensive longitudinal data collection. Key challenges related to privacy and sustained engagement will be addressed, alongside a review of experimental designs commonly employed to optimize JITAIs. The talk will conclude with an example from an ongoing clinical trial evaluating the preliminary efficacy of a novel JITAI targeting young adults who co-use cannabis and alcohol, illustrating the practical application of these methods.
