Yale University received a $641,138 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), effective June 15, 2026, through March 31, 2030. The award funds a comprehensive epidemiological study investigating methadone dose-associated risks and outcomes in opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment, with particular emphasis on aging populations. The research leverages a national cohort of approximately 54,000 patients from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) derived from the Veterans Aging Cohorts Study, utilizing electronic health records from over 13 million patients to examine the relationship between methadone and buprenorphine dosing and medically significant falls, while comparing differential risk profiles across age groups and medication types. The study deliverables include three primary research objectives: (1) assessment of time to medically significant falls as a function of cumulative and time-updated methadone dose exposure among patients initiating methadone between 2016-2025; (2) comparative dose-associated risk analysis between methadone and buprenorphine for OUD treatment; and (3) evaluation of age-group effects on fall risk within each medication type. Yale's multidisciplinary investigative team includes experts in addiction medicine, medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), epidemiology, bioinformatics, and aging. The project will validate novel algorithms previously developed and tested on VA patient populations to identify chart-documented medically significant falls, generating high-quality evidence to support safer MOUD management guidance for geriatric populations.Federal Grant Award Summary
