Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app can help people who are already on methadone treatment cut down on opioid and cocaine use. The app asks participants to take random drug tests at home and rewards them with money for negative results. Researchers want to see if app users stay in treatment longer and use drugs less often compared to those receiving standard care alone.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
DynamiCare Health app (behavioral intervention with incentives and remote drug testing)
What this could lead to
If it works, this app could become a low-cost tool to help people in methadone programs cut back on opioid and cocaine use and stick with their treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 3 trial, but the app's success depends on participants staying engaged and testing negative. It may not work for everyone, and the rewards might not be enough to change long-term habits.
