Official title
Testing a Behavioral Intervention in Pediatric Celiac Disease
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune condition whose only currently available treatment is a strict, burdensome gluten-free diet (GFD). The current proposal uses a theory-driven empirical approach for optimizing the GFD for teens and their parents by targeting knowledge, behavior, and coping skills through educational and cognitive-behavioral techniques. Integration with telehealth and SMS (short message service; "text") technology for delivering the intervention has the potential to reduce barriers to specialized treatment at both early and later stages of implementation. The proposed research will refine and test a behavioral intervention for teens with CD and their parents using an iterative stakeholder-centered design. It will consist of a small pilot randomized control trial (RCT) (n=96 dyads) that will examine the preliminary efficacy of the intervention and its impact on quality of life and GFD management by targeting self-efficacy, illness identity, and food-related activities. This work has the potential to make a lasting impact on the standards of care and available treatments to optimize CD management in youth and their families.
