Proof of concept: Pilot Study A Pilot, proof of concept, observational study with a long-term goal to develop a minimally invasive wearable Remote Medication Monitor (RMM) that provides continuous, real-time data on methadone levels in interstitial fluid (ISF). An RMM could be used as a medication adherence monitor and would allow for the physician, counselor, patient, or family member to remotely verify that a physician-prescribed dose has been taken.

AIM 2 : Determine if an RMM can assess the status of taking a prescribed dose of methadone. To complete this aim, the peak and trough concentrations of a witnessed methadone dose will be assessed in ISF collected through the surface of the skin using existing ISF extraction methods and assessed outside the body via Lateral Flow Immunoassay for up to 6 hours. Methadone metabolites and protein binding factors may be assessed in the collected ISF samples using (LC-MS). We hypothesize that the methadone peak and trough levels as well as the metabolites in the blood samples will correlate with the levels of methadone in ISF. The Investigators hypothesize that the methadone peak and trough levels as well as the metabolites in the blood samples will correlate with the levels of methadone in ISF.
AIM 3: Determine if an RMM can continuously assess the status of taking a prescribed dose of methadone over time. To complete this aim, the pharmacokinetic profile of a witnessed methadone dose will be assessed in ISF continuously from the surface of the skin using the RMM for up to 12 hours (Aim 3a) and over 3 days (Aim 3b). Methadone metabolites will also be assessed over these three time points in the continuously collected ISF samples using LC-MS. The Investigators hypothesize that a clinician can recognize a dose taken and the methadone metabolites from the RMM generated measurements in the ISF.

Aim 1: Characterize dermal interstitial fluid (ISF) in healthy adults with Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (LC-MS) based proteomics. To complete this aim, the dermal interstitial fluid will be extracted from the surface of the skin of healthy adults over a period up to 3 hours. The participants may also have continuous monitoring of their interstitial fluid using the RMM. We hypothesize that the protein content of ISF will be 50% the level of normal human serum levels and contain potential protein biomarkers of disease status.
