NCT03924973

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the efficiency of early treatment for ASD children 5 years after initial treatment. The early treatment implemented was 12 hours per week of ESDM versus treatment as usual during 2 years. This was done as an RCT, called IDEA. Children will now be included in IDEA-2 SCOLA, a three year follow up study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule )

    Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule is a semi-structured, standardized, observational tool, which measures core autism symptoms, that is to say reciprocal sociocommunicative interaction, and repetitive and restrictive behaviors. This assessment will be administered by an assessor blind to the allocation group.

  • VABS (Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales)

    3 YEARS

  • PPVT ( Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test )

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Children below the age of 3 in this group received 2 years of ESDM intervention for 12 hours per week, and then treatment as usual for the 3 following years. What is called "treatment as usual" is what the community can usually offer. That is what the control group in IDEA received. In IDEA-2, both control and interventional group of IDEA will receive treatment as usual during 3 years. Treatment as usual comprises of different types of interventions, such as speech pathology therapy, occupational therapy and other types of therapy more or less specific to ASD in the community.

Behavioral: ESDM followed by treatment as usual

Control group

OTHER

Children in this group received treatment as usual delivered in the community for the 2 years of IDEA. Participants will still receive treatment as usual delivered in the community during IDEA-2, in the 3 years following IDEA.

Behavioral: ESDM followed by treatment as usual

Interventions

The intervention was ESDM, delivered by professionals, one therapist per child, 12 hours per week during 2 years. Then, they will receive the treatment as usual during 3 years in this current follow-up study. Precise description of the 2 years ESDM treatment can be found in the published protocol of IDEA. What is called "treatment as usual" is what the community can usually offer. That is what the control group in IDEA received. In IDEA-2, both control and interventional group of IDEA will receive treatment as usual during 3 years. Treatment as usual comprises of different types of interventions, such as speech pathology therapy, occupational therapy and other types of therapy more or less specific to ASD in the community. All the interventions received by the children will be monitored in IDEA-2. All different treatment approaches will be quantified (type, frequency, intensity and duration).
