ACTIVE NOT RECRUITING NA

Guiding Good Choices for Health

NCT04040153 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This study evaluates the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing Guiding Good Choices (GGC), an anticipatory guidance curriculum for parents of early adolescents, in three large, integrated healthcare systems. By "parents," the study team is referring here and throughout this protocol to those adults who are the primary caregivers of children, irrespective of their biological relationship to the child. In prior community trials, GGC has been shown to prevent adolescent substance use (alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana), depressive symptoms, and delinquent behavior. This study offers an opportunity to test GGC effectiveness with respect to improving adolescent behavioral health outcomes when implemented at scale in pediatric primary care within a pragmatic trial.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04040153

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04040153 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 3,636 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Washington, which has 987 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Adolescent Substance Use appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Guiding Good Choices is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04040153 reports 3 study locations spanning 3 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include California, Colorado, Michigan. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
