PATH (Promoting AdolescenT Health) 2 Purpose is a two-arm comparative effectiveness research trial to that will evaluate the ability of the interventions, Competent Adulthood Transition with Cognitive-behavioral & Interpersonal Training (CATCH-IT) and Teens Achieving Mastery over Stress (TEAMS), to intervene early to prevent depressive illness and potentially other common mental health disorders. Using cluster randomization, 534 participants eligible for the study will be offered one of two different depression prevention programs in multiple sites in Chicagoland, Rockford, Illinois; Dixon, Illinois; and Louisville, Kentucky. In response to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, we will employ a public health media campaign to recruit a second cohort of 100 adolescents state-wide in Illinois, Kentucky, and Massachusetts individually randomized to either intervention. The study will also assess teens', parents' and providers' experiences with each intervention approach. Finally, we will examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on adolescents at-risk for depression who are enrolled in our study.
The majority of mental, emotional and behavioral (MEB) disorders have an initial onset before age 24, with 20% annual incidence, with major depressive disorder (MDD) being the most common MEB. Health systems, eager to reduce costs, want to transition from the current "wait until sick enough for treatment" model for MDD to a preventive model. However, evidence is needed for (1) the comparative effectiveness of a "scalable intervention" and (2) an implementation model for such a scalable intervention in the primary care setting. This study is a comparative effectiveness trial evaluating the efficacy of two evidence-based cognitive-behavioral prevention (CBP) programs: Teens Achieving Mastery over Stress (TEAMS), the "gold standard," group therapy model, and Competent Adulthood Transition with Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic and Interpersonal Training (CATCH-IT), a scalable, self-directed, technology-based model. For implementation during the COVID-19 pandemic, TEAMS has successfully been adapted to an online format and administered online through HIPAA-compliant video conferencing software. For the first cohort, 534 eligible adolescents age 13-19 will be offered one of two different depression prevention programs using cluster randomization in multiple sites in urban and suburban Chicago, Illinois; rural Western Illinois, including Dixon and surrounding towns; and Louisville, Kentucky. Randomization will be blocked into matched pairs of primary health care clinics and school sites and stratified by race, ethnicity, rural-urban commuting area codes, and socio-economic disadvantage using the Distressed Communities Index (DCI) from census-tracked data of each site zip code. A second cohort of 100 eligible adolescents will be recruited through public health media campaigns in Illinois, Kentucky, and Massachusetts utilizing the same eligibility criteria as Cohort One. These participants will connect with the research team by phone, email, web survey, or social media and will be randomized at the individual-level with equal allocation into treatment conditions (CATCH-IT or TEAMS). The investigators will comprehensively evaluate patient-centered outcomes and stakeholder-valued moderators of effect at 2, 6, 12, and 18 month assessment points. Using a hybrid clinical trial design that simultaneously examines implementation process, the study will also assess adolescents', parents' and providers' experiences (i.e. efficacy, time commitment, cultural acceptability, and implementation cost) with each intervention approach. A sub-sample of Cohort Two (n=50, 25 from each intervention arm) will be recruited to participate in open-ended interviews for adolescents to share their experiences of living with subsyndromal depression, coping during the COVID-19 pandemic, their perceived impact of CATCH-IT or TEAMS on their mood and behavior, and the cultural contexts in which these experiences occurred.

|---|---|---|---|
| CATCH-IT | Experimental | Competent Adulthood Transition with Cognitive-behavioral & Interpersonal Training (CATCH-IT) is an internet-based depression prevention program that targets decreasing modifiable risk factors while enhancing protective factors in at-risk adolescents, and that includes a parent program. It has been shown to be safe, feasible, and efficacious. |
|
| TEAMS | Active Comparator | Teens Achieving Mastery over Stress (TEAMS) is an 8-session group depression prevention program teaching teens how to deal with stress and negative moods, and ways to manage low mood based on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) principles and strategies. Efficacy has been demonstrated by several trials over time. |

| CATCH-IT | Behavioral | Competent Adulthood Transition with Cognitive-behavioral & Interpersonal Training (CATCH-IT) is an internet-based depression prevention program that targets decreasing modifiable risk factors while enhancing protective factors in at-risk adolescents, and that includes a parent program. It has been shown to be safe, feasible, and efficacious. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Time | Time will be measured to nearest minute for all intervention related activities including initial screening, engagement phone calls, use of CATCH-IT, TEAMS group activities, including travel time to and from TEAMS groups. Time will be measured from adolescent, family, practice, community center, healthcare organization, health system perspective. For time that cannot be directly measured by study staff, the investigators will sample direct observation or questionnaires to capture time required for health system related activities such as screening and engagement. | Baseline through 18 months |
| Cultural acceptability adolescent and family | Cultural acceptability for each stakeholder using appropriate, validated instruments. Adolescent and family: Usefulness, Satisfaction, and Ease Questionnaire (USE, 30 items, self-report, 7-point Likert scale, 30-210 score range, higher score indicates more acceptable). An example statement is: "I would recommend this to a friend." | Baseline through 18 months |
| Cost | Costs will be measured for all stakeholders. For practice, community center, healthcare organizations, health systems, cost will be measured to nearest dollar by converting time measures into employment related costs based on mean wages an benefits for staff at that occupational level. Adolescent and family costs will be measured by converting time into mean hourly wages and benefits for adolescent and family members involved in the project (based on mean wage for age and occupation). | Baseline through 18 months |
| Depressive and mental disorder episodes | Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview for Children and Adolescents (MINI Kid, self-report). This is a structured psychiatric interview administered by a trained staff member which uses stem questions and follow-ups to determine the presence of symptoms and date of onset. The staff member then determines if and when the symptoms developed an episode is present. Measure is either episode present or not and date of onset. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Implementation themes | Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) will be used to explore experience of the study from the perspective of 25 stakeholders | End of study, 30 months |
| Moderation of Covid-19 factors on comparative effectiveness outcomes |
