Status of PDMPS – December 20142013

PDMP Characteristics and Provider Utilization

• PDMP registration rate ~35% 1

• 20 states require providers to register with the PDMP 2

• 22 states mandate provider usage of PDMP 2

– Variation across mandatory use situations • In all or nearly all cases when a controlled substance (CS) is

prescribed• Initially/periodically when a CS is prescribed• Only under select circumstances

– Mandatory use requirements have increased enrollment and use, impacted CS prescribing, and reduced multiple provider episodes 3

PDMP Value to Clinical Care

• Identifying patients at highest risk for overdose

– Elevated Morphine Milligram Equivalence Dose

– Polypharmacy

– Concurrent/Overlapping Prescription

• Potential Drug Interactions

– Substance Use Disorder

• Promote conversation or referral to treatment

• Protect patient from serious or fatal harm

– Opportunity for tapering and avoiding withdrawal

Examples of PDMP Added Value

• Identification of high risk use

– Baumblatt (2014) used Tennessee PDMP data to identify risk factors accounting for 55% of overdose deaths

– Katz (2009) used Massachusetts PDMP data to identify pharmacy and prescriber visit patterns

Practical Steps for Providers When Accessing the PDMP to Reduce Risk

• High number of scripts, providers, pharmacies – Discuss concerns when suspecting SUD

• Consider criteria for SUD and referral to treatment– SAMHSA Buprenorphine Physician and Treatment Locator

(http://buprenorphine.samhsa.gov/bwns_locator/)

– Communicate concerns for patient safety if not seeing an improvement in function

– Use MME to assess risk for overdose– Address potential drug interactions

• Educate patients about risks • Avoid a medication plan that includes potentially dangerous

combinations (e.g. benzodiazepines and opioids)

– Avoid abrupt discontinuation of opioids or benzodiazepines

CDC PDMP Activities

• PEHRIIE – PDMP Electronic Health Record Integration and Interoperability Expansion Project

• PBSS – Prescription Behavior Surveillance System

• Prescription Drug Overdose: Boost for State Prevention

• Prevention for States Program

PEHRIIE

• Cooperative Agreement – SAMHSA and CDC

• Improve prescribing and dispensing practices

– Integration of PDMP data into EHRs and other health information technology (pharmacy systems)

– Interoperability of PDMPs across state lines.

PBSS

• 11 states currently provide data to PBSS

• PBSS indicators over time and by demographic and controlled substance drug categories

– Patient-Level Behavior

– Prescriber-Level Behavior

– Dispenser-Level Behavior

Prevention BOOST

• Maximizing PDMPs– Expanding interstate data sharing between PDMPs

across state borders

– Refining proactive PDMP reports to identify and address inappropriate prescribing patterns

– Shortening the PDMP reporting interval to make PDMP data more timely and useful

– Leveraging PDMPs as public health surveillance systems to better understand what drives overdose deaths

Prevention for States

• More intense effort to enhance and maximize PDMPs

– Streamline and simplify PDMP registration process

– Data sharing between PDMPs and EHRs

– Support proactive reporting and data analysis

– Move toward a real-time PDMP

Treatment of Prescription Opioid Dependence

Roger D. Weiss, MDHarvard Medical School

McLean Hospital, Belmont, MANew England Consortium Node, NIDA Clinical Trials

Network

Disclosure

Roger D. Weiss, MD wishes to disclose that he has consulted to Reckitt-Benckiser. He will present this content in a fair and balanced

manner.

Overdose prevention

• Effective treatment is the best way to prevent overdoses

• Most studies of opioid dependence treatment have focused on heroin addicts in methadone maintenance treatment

• It is not clear the degree to which this applies to those with prescription opioid dependencereceiving office-based buprenorphinetreatment

Prescription Opioid Addiction Treatment Study (POATS)

• Compared treatments for prescription opioid dependence, using

– buprenorphine-naloxone (bup-nx) of varying durations

– counseling of varying intensities

• Conducted as part of National Institute on Drug Abuse Clinical Trials Network (NIDA CTN)

• 10 participating sites across the U.S.

• Largest study ever conducted for prescription opioid dependence (N=653)

Weiss RD et al. Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2011;68(12):1238-1246

POATS study questions

• Does adding individual drug counseling to bup-nx+SMM improve outcome? – May be a proxy for drug abuse treatment program

vs. office-based opioid treatment, using bup-nx

• What length of bup-nx is best for these patients? – 1-month taper?

– 3 months, then taper?

– Longer-term maintenance?

Key eligibility criteria

• DSM-IV dx of opioid dependence, not just physical dependence

• ≥20 days opioid use in past 30 days

• Additional SUDs eligible if not requiring immediate medical treatment

• Non-psychotic, psychiatrically stable

• Minimal or no heroin use (never dependent or injected, <5 d in past 30

Phase 1, up to 12 weeks

Phase 2, 24 weeks

POATS Main Trial Results

Successful outcome, Phase 1 (N=653)

Phase 1 successful outcome criteria

• ≤4 days opioid use per month

• No positive urine screens for opioids on 2 consecutive wks

• No other formal substance abuse treatment

• No injection of opioids

• No more than 1 missing urine sample during the 12 weeks

Who benefits from additional drug counseling among Rx opioid

dependent pts receiving bup-nx and standard medical management?

Weiss et al., DAD, 2014

Key study questions

Do subgroups of Rx opioid dependent patients benefit from more intensive treatment, i.e., drug counseling in addition to bup-nx and standard medical management?

Compared patients with• More severe problems• Greater attendance at treatment sessions, i.e.

adherence• The interaction of the two

Did drug counseling improve outcomes in more severe patients?

Illness severity operationalized as• ASI drug composite score (mean=.34)• Heroin use (26%)• Chronic pain (41%)

RESULTSHeroin users were half as likely to have successful outcomes, but this was not related to being randomized to drug counseling.

The remaining severity measures were not associated with outcome.

Adequate attendance/adherence to treatment

Sessions offered during 12-week Phase 2• Medical management (360): 17• Drug counseling (180): 18 (plus 17 MM)

Adequate adherence set a priori at ≥60% of both MM + drug counseling sessions offered:74% of patients met this criterion

RESULTSAmong patients with adequate attendance/adherence (n=266), treatment assignment was not related to outcome.

Did patients with more severe problems have better outcomes if assigned to drug counseling?

(n=266 with adequate adherence)

Interaction between heroin & treatment p=.03

Interpretation of results

• Heroin users were as likely to succeed as non-heroin users if they were randomized to drug counseling and went (i.e., were adherent).

• Adherent heroin users assigned to SMM alone were half as likely to succeed as all other adherent Rx opioid patients.

Implications

Perhaps there are clinically meaningful subgroupsof patients with prescription opioid dependence• Older • Depressed • Initiated use for pain

vs. • Younger, more “recreational” users, including

heroin users• Latter group may require and benefit from more

intensive counseling (if they attend)

Does early response to buprenorphine-naloxone predict

treatment outcome in prescription opioid dependence?

McDermott et al., J Clin Psychiatry, 2015

Research questions

1) Is it possible to tell early in treatment whether a prescription opioid dependent patient will have a successful bup-nxoutcome?

2) How early can bup-nx treatment response be evaluated accurately?

Methods

Positive predictive value = the degree to which initial opioid abstinence predicted final successful outcome at the end of bup-nxstabilization.

Negative predictive value = the degree to which initial opioid use predicted final unsuccessful outcome at the end of bup-nx stabilization.

Relapse rates for opiate use are high despite available medication-assisted treatment options

Prescription pain relievers that are full μ-opioid receptor agonists are same class of drugs as heroin.

FDA-approved medication-assisted treatments (MAT) for opiate use disorders:

Buprenorphine/naloxoneMethadoneNaltrexone

MAT are adjuncts to evidence-based psychosocial treatments

However, discharges from MAT programs and relapse rates remain high.

Clonidine maintenance prolongs opioid abstinence anddecouples stress from craving: a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with ecological momentary assessment

• Placebo-controlled RCT testing effectiveness of clonidine (alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist) added to buprenorphine to reduce lapses to and extend abstinence from opiate use in opiate-use-disorders patients

• 118 participants who maintained opiate abstinence during weeks 5-6 were continued on buprenorphine and randomized to clonidine (n=61) or placebo (n=57) for 14 weeks.

• Urine was tested thrice weekly.

Clonidine maintenance prolongs opioid abstinence and decouples stress from craving: a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with ecological momentary assessment

• Clonidine plus buprenorphine produced longest duration of consecutive days of abstinence from opiates during intervention, versus placebo + buprenorphine (34.8±3.7 days versus 25.5±2.7 days, P<0.05, Effect size: d=0.38).

• Clonidine group also took longer to lapse (hazard ratio:0.67, 95% CI=0.45-1.00, P<0.05).

• Ecological momentary assessment showed daily-life stress was decoupled from opiate craving in the clonidine group (interaction F(3,257)=8.8, P<0.01).

Conclusions

• Clonidine may be useful off-label in treating opiate use disorders, not just to reduce withdrawal signs, but also as an adjunct maintenance treatment that increases duration of opiate abstinence and delays lapses

• Even in absence of withdrawal, it decouples stress from craving

• Participants in the clonidine group were not more likely to report an adverse event compared with placebo. Therefore, the doses of clonidine used appear to be safe and well tolerated in this population.

Clinical Implications

• Clonidine may effectively work off-label as a maintenance medication and adjunct to buprenorphine to enhance prevention of lapses to opiate use and prolong abstinence.

• This is a major new use for a readily available old drug.

• Clinicians have more options in their toolbox to prevent lapses to opiate use and enhance abstinence in opiate-dependent patients.

Electronic health record and opioid registries: Clinical implications

What is a registry?

• Continually refreshed database on a group of people meeting certain criteria

• Provides up-to-date information (e.g. clinical characteristics, health care utilization, medication use)

Example: Prescription Opioid Registry

• Proof-of-concept project with NIDA to explore use of EHR

• Looking across four years (2010-2014)

• Creating daily records of opioid use as well as episodes of use with varying criteria

• Data elements include:– Pharmacy data: new and long term prescription opioid users, opioid

misuse, overdose and poisoning, mortality, other adverse events (e.g. fractures).

– Demographics, socioeconomic, comorbidities

– Health services use

• Can refresh periodically to make a “living” registry

How Does A Registry Develop?

Health System/Clinical

EncountersEHR Registries

Data cleaning, algorithm development, QC, clinical consult

How Can Registries Be Used?• Can identify high risk patients according to various criteria• Track outcomes of interest over time

– Long term use– Poisoning/overdose, abuse/dependence, ER use

• Examine comorbidities• Family members• Correlation with other health outcomes with access to the whole

medical record, other registries• Can target certain populations for disease management

– Cancer Registry, HIV Registry, Diabetes, Preventing Heart Attack and Stroke Registry (PHASE)

• Treatment and care processes• Can identify providers of these patients for interventions• Collaborating with other health systems to create networks

– Potential for surveillance for some substances– Common Data Elements

How Clinicians Use These Data

Data Warehouse/Registries

Query Tool

VDW Query Tool Capabilities

• Web-based interface for querying• Flexible, fast• Draws from multiple data sources, including registry

data• Large-volume, longitudinal data• Basic and advanced queries• Breakdown by patient demographics and KP facility• Results delivered to browser, Excel export, or e-mail• Save, re-run and re-edit queries• As good as the user’s questions

Implications

• Exciting time– Integration of SU treatment with primary care

– EHRs more widely available

• More data becoming available in the EHR that can feed SUD registries

• More information available to help manage patients– Development of clinical tools
