Description	In 2000, NIDA created the Clinical Trials Network (CTN). The CTN conducts studies of behavioral, pharmacological and integrated behavioral and pharmacological treatment interventions in rigorous, multi-site clinical trials to determine the effectiveness across a broad range of community-based treatment settings and diverse patient populations. In 2002, tablet formulations of buprenorphine were approved by the FDA for treatment of opiate addiction. Additionally, the CTN completed several clinical trials related to specific uses of this medication. Information from these studies is incorporated into this training material. In order to prepare the field to effectively integrate this treatment, NIDA formed a Blending Team to develop an awareness training for multidisciplinary addiction professionals to educate them about buprenorphine and its use in the treatment of opioid addiction. This training is designed to provide a broad overview of the medication, its effects, and the roles of multi-disciplinary addiction professionals in providing and supporting the treatment of individuals receiving this medication.
