Pear Therapeutics Announces Publication of Real-World Data Showing Improved Clinical Outcomes with a Subsequent Prescription of reSET-O

Pear Therapeutics, Inc., today announced publication of real-world data evaluating the impact of reSET-O for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) on patients treated for 24 weeks. Patients evaluated were in outpatient treatment and were prescribed buprenorphine at clinician-determined doses, routes of administration and regimens. In the 24-week cohort, 94.4% met the responder rate of being abstinent for at least 80% of the weeks of treatment. Abstinence was measured based on negative UDS or self-reports. 91.4% of patients were retained in treatment at the end of the second prescription period (weeks 21-24 of 24). Taken together with prior publications, these results suggest that reSET-O can provide clinical and economic benefit, that patients continue to have high-rates of engagement through 24 weeks of treatment, and that benefit can by enhanced significantly by a “refill” prescription of the PDT.

New research shows Propeller improves outcomes for patients with high burden of COPD

At Propeller, we want to make this information accessible to patients and their clinicians so they can make informed decisions and understand long-term trends in the patient’s condition. To do so, we prompt patients with COPD to take the CAT once a month in the Propeller app and share the results with patients and their providers. By combining CAT scores and the objective medication usage data Propeller collects, we can better understand the patient’s COPD status and the need for further intervention. In a new article published in Frontiers in Digital Health, we observed significant, parallel improvements in CAT scores and rescue inhaler use among 611 patients with COPD using the Propeller platform.
