Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder / Substance Use Disorder Comorbidity in Integrated Treatment
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
TAU+integrated group CBT: TAU+integrated group CBT : participants receive a group psychotherapeutic intervention of Integrated CBT lasting eight weekly two-hour sessions, in parallel with their usual individual care. The sessions are led by a psychologist trained and certified in the practice of CBT and a psychiatrist specialized in addiction medicine. The psychotherapeutic intervention follows a fixed structure and is inspired by the CBT manual for the management of ADHD associated with SUDs published by Matthys et al. (2018). This intervention includes modules on planning and organization, time and distraction management, emotional regulation, work on impulsive behaviors and social skills, cognitive work, as well as substance use management and relapse prevention. The sessions will be punctuated by regular breaks to ensure participants' comfort and the integration of the skills worked on during the sessions. TAU : participants receive their usual care, in exception of group psychotherapeutic interventions.
Study summary
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) is a highly common comorbid condition associated with serious medical and psychosocial consequences. However, and despite the international consensus recommending integrated treatment for this comorbidity, few studies tested the efficacy of specific psychotherapeutic treatment for this comorbidity.
The aim of this study is to test the efficacy of a specific group Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of adults with this comorbidity.
This is a longitudinal, randomized controlled intervention study utilizing a crossover design between the intervention and treatment-as-usual (TAU) waitlist condition, aimed at testing the effectiveness of an integrated psychotherapeutic group treatment for adults with comorbid Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Substance Use Disorders (SUDs).
