Study Summary

This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial of 204 patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) and chronic pain (CP) to test the effectiveness of treatment as usual compared with Stepped Care for Patients to Optimize Whole Recovery (SC-POWR) to reduce pain interference (Aim 1) and decrease illicit opioid use, alcohol use, anxiety, depression, and stress, and improve sleep (Aim 2). Eligible participants will begin medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) and will be randomized to receive SC-POWR (i.e., cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), MOUD, and onsite groups for exercise \[Wii Fit, Tai Chi\] and stress reduction \[relaxation training, auricular acupuncture\] for 24 weeks. Participants will be followed for another 24 weeks to evaluate durability of treatment response on pain interference illicit opioid use, alcohol use, anxiety, depression, stress, sleep, and retention in MOUD (Aim 3).

Primary Outcome

Pain interference is measured using the PEG scale, a 3-item scale with each item scored from 0-10. Total scores are achieved by averaging the 3 items. Total sore range from 0-10. Higher scores indicate more pain and interference.
