Summary

The aim of this trial is to assess the clinical utility, effectiveness, and cost implications of treatment for incarcerated offenders with opioid use disorders who are randomly assigned to one of three treatment conditions to include a depot formulation of naltrexone (XR-NTX, as Vivitrol®) only (XR-NTX), Vivitrol provided with sessions with a patient navigator (PN) XR-NTX+PN, and a drug education procedure (ETAU) before being released to the community. This trial will investigate whether effective medication therapy used in non-incarcerated populations will also be effective in incarcerated individuals. Empirical evidence demonstrates that starting treatment before release greatly increases the probability of successful outcome including reduced alcohol and drug use, increased employment rates, and reduced recidivism rates.

Conditions

XR-NTX

Monthly injections of XR-NTX will be administered to participants assigned to either the XR-NTX or XR-NTX+PN groups.

BEHAVIORAL

XR-NTX+PN

In addition to long-acting naltrexone (XR-NTX), participants assigned to the XR-NTX+PN condition will meet regularly with a patient navigator to assist in accessing psychosocial services when released from jail.
