FLORIDA NODE OF THE DRUG ABUSE CLINICAL TRIALS NETWORK

这是一项建立国家药物滥用治疗临床试验网络（CTN）佛罗里达区域节点的提案。迈阿密大学的四个主要研究中心已经加入为区域研究和培训中心（RRTC）提供他们相当多的临床试验、多地点和药物滥用治疗专业知识：家庭研究中心、综合药物研究中心、青少年药物滥用治疗研究中心和行为医学研究中心。当选的社区治疗项目（ctp）是该州规模最大、最受尊敬的项目之一，代表了该州北部（杰克逊维尔的Gateway）、中部（坦帕的PAR、奥兰多的无毒生活中心）和南部（迈阿密的The Village、布劳沃德县的Spectrum）地区。它们提供了极为多样化的治疗方式、种族概况和药物滥用和成瘾人群。在第一年，佛罗里达节点有能力为多达20,000名滥用药物和成瘾患者提供服务。佛罗里达节点指导委员会包括5个ctp、pi和Co-P的领导人。我/运营总监。每个其他团队还包括RRTC和CTP代表：临床试验培训和实施监测，概念开发和生物统计学/数据管理。在这种伙伴关系中，RRTC和CTPs都渴望相互学习，渴望学习有效的治疗模式，这些模式可以从其他节点转移到佛罗里达州的治疗项目中。佛罗里达节点RRTC已经开发并发表了有效的基于家庭的治疗模式，并在针对药物滥用人群（青少年药物滥用者、吸毒成瘾的新母亲、间歇性吸毒的艾滋病毒阳性妇女）和艾滋病毒阳性人群（艾滋病毒传播预防、改善个人和家庭功能的家庭生态治疗）的基于家庭的干预方面发挥了相当大的作用。节点在这些领域的兴趣范围从干预措施的可移植性到纵向设计中汇总家庭数据的统计方法问题。佛罗里达节点工作面临的特殊挑战包括跨地理距离的通信和协作。促进因素包括提供高质量服务的渴望，对使用结果数据更新国家治疗资助政策的兴趣，对州和国家问责制的时代精神的认识，以及在新世纪研究所的保护下CTP之间的事先合作，以提高该组的治疗和研究能力。

This is a proposal to establish the Florida Regional Node of the National Drug Abuse Treatment Clinical Trials Network (CTN). Four major research centers at the University of Miami have joined to provide the Regional Research and Training Center (RRTC) with their considerable clinical trials, multi-site, and drug abuse treatment expertise: Center for Family Studies, Comprehensive Drug Research Center, Center for Treatment Research on Adolescent Drug Abuse, and Behavioral Medicine Research Center. The Community Treatment Programs (CTPs) elected are among the largest and most respected in the State, representing the north(Gateway in Jacksonville), central (PAR in Tampa; Center for Drug Free Living in Orlando) and south (The Village in Miami; Spectrum in Broward County) pats of the State. They offer exceptional diversity of treatment modalities, ethnic profiles, and drug abusing and addicted populations. In the first year, The Florida Node has the capacity of serving up to 20,000 drug abusing and addicted patients. The Florida Node Steering Committee includes the leaders of the 5 CTPs, the P.I., and the Co-P.I/Operations Director. Each of the other teams also include RRTC and CTP representation: Clinical Trials Training and Implementation Monitoring, Concept Development, and Biostatistics/Data Management. In this partnership both the RRTC and the CTPs are eager to learn from each other, and eager to learn about efficacious treatment models that can be transported from other nodes to Florida's treatment programs. The Florida Node RRTC has developed and published efficacious family- based treatment models and brings considerable strength in family-based interventions with drug abusing populations (adolescent drug abusers, drug addicted new mothers, HIV+ women using drugs intermittently) and with HIV+ populations (HIV transmission prevention, family ecological therapy to improve individual and family functioning). The Node's interests in these areas range from transportability of interventions to statistical methodological issues in aggregating family data in longitudinal designs. Particular challenges to the work of the Florida Node include communication and collaboration across geographic distance. Facilitators include eagerness to provide quality services, interest in using outcome data to update state treatment funding policies, recognition of a zeitgeist in the state and the nation of accountability, and prior collaboration among the CTP under the New Century Institute umbrella to promote the group's treatment and research competence.
