Summary

This study tests LaunchPad, an online program designed to help high school seniors avoid drug and alcohol problems as they leave school. Researchers will randomly assign 5,000 students to different lessons and measure changes in their attitudes, confidence, and intentions around substance use. The goal is to see which lessons work best at building healthy skills for this critical transition.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
online behavioral intervention (LaunchPad lessons)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide an effective online tool to prevent substance use disorders in young adults during a high-risk life transition.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study measuring attitudes and intentions, not actual drug use. The results may not translate to real-world behavior change or long-term prevention.

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.
