Trial Purpose and Description:

This is a 4-year, longitudinal, observational study of participants with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD)/Opioid Dependence. The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes of long-term treatment with SUBLOCADE® and observe enduring changes in lifestyle, health, and social factors that are part of the recovery process. Abstinence/opioid misuse as well as participants’ physical, psychological, social, and economic well-being will therefore be monitored on a long-term basis to better understand factors associated with recovery from OUD.
