Abstract

ABSTRACT The Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) initiative was developed to identify scientific solutions to the national opioid public health crisis as quickly as possible. As part of this initiative, the NIH HEAL Pain Management Effectiveness Research Network (HEAL Pain ERN) will provide scientific guidance and coordination of the HEAL Pain ERN Trials. Specifically, the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI), the University of Utah, and Johns Hopkins/Tufts will continue to provide integrated functions for the clinical resource coordinating center (CRCC), data coordination resource center (DCRC), and the statistical and safety resource center (SSRC) for the HEAL Pain ERN. The DCRI will provide clinical trial leadership and expertise, assistance in study and protocol design, study implementation, and management, in collaboration with the other HEAL ERN Resource Centers, for existing and new HEAL ERN trials. The DCRI will serve as the CCRC for existing and new HEAL ERN trials.
