During this 36-month R34 trial, eight study phases are proposed to adapt an evidence-based post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) intervention (STAIR-NT) and layer it into a methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) program (START Treatment and Recovery centers) in New York City for use among individuals engaged in stimulant-opioid polysubstance use. The study aims to adapt STAIR-NT to a massed treatment schedule. Once an adapted protocol is complete, it will be tested for feasibility, acceptability, and short-term polysubstance and PTSD symptomology outcomes in a pilot randomized control trial (RCT) of 80 participants. Participants who screen eligible and consent will be randomized 1:1 to the adapted STAIR-NT intervention or treatment as usual (TAU) using randomization blocks of two and two and four via a computer-generated randomization sequence. Participants assigned to the intervention will receive the adapted massed delivery of STAIR-NT by trained counselors.

Up to Month 3
Clinician-Rated Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) Score
4-item, clinician-rated assessment of the feasibility of the intervention. Each item is rated on a scale from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree); the total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 4-20. Higher scores indicate greater clinician-rated feasibility.
Month 3
Clinician-Rated Feasibility of Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) Score
4-item, clinician-rated assessment of the acceptability of the intervention. Each item is rated on a scale from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree); the total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 4-20. Higher scores indicate greater clinician-rated acceptability.
Adapted version of evidence-based behavioral PTSD intervention.

PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) Score
The PCL-5 is a 20-item self-report measure that assesses the 20 DSM-5 symptoms of PTSD. Each item is rated on a scale from 0-4. A total symptom severity score (range - 0-80) can be obtained by summing the scores for each of the 20 items; higher scores indicate greater severity of PTSD.
Month 3
Negative Mood Regulation Scale Score
30-item assessment of individuals' beliefs and expectations regarding their ability to regulate their negative mood and emotions. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not at all effective) to 5 (extremely effective). The total score ranges from 30-150; higher scores indicate more effective negative mood regulation.
Month 3
Inventory of Interpersonal Problems Score
A 127-item, self-report inventory that asks participants to rate a variety of interpersonal problems that may cause distress. The items are divided into two groups: (1) interpersonal inadequacies or inhibitions (78 items), (2) excesses or compulsions (49 items). Participants rate each item on a scale from 0 to 4 on how much difficulty/distress they feel regarding the item. The total score is calculated by adding the item responses; lower scores indicate less difficulty/distress.
