Treatment attrition was declared at > 37 days following the last recorded visit. Survival analyses and predictive modelling were used.Results: Retention was consistently 2– 3 times higher following BUP initiation in OP (n = 2409) than in IP/IOP (n = 2749) settings after 2 (50% vs 25%), 6 (27% vs 9%) and 12 months (14% vs 4%). Retention was higher for females, whites (vs blacks), and those with less severe OUD, better global function, or not using non-psychotropic medications. Comorbid substance use, other psychiatric disorders, and the number of psychotropic medications were variously related to retention depending on the setting in which BUP was initiated. Predictive modelling revealed that a higher global assessment of functioning and a smaller OUD severity based on the Clinical Global Impression – Severity led to longer retentions, a higher initial BUP dose led to higher retention in a few cases, an OP setting of BUP initiation led to longer retentions, and a lower total number of psychotropic and non-psychotropic medications led to longer retentions. These were the most important parameters in the model, which identified 75.2% of patients who left BUP treatment within three months post-initiation, with a precision of 90.5%.Conclusion: Of all the OUD patients who began BUP, 50– 75% left treatment within three months, and most could be accurately identified. This could facilitate patient-centered management to better retain OUD patients in BUP treatment.Keywords: opioids, buprenorphine, buprenorphine dosing, treatment engagement, treatment retention, treatment dropout, predictorsKer SHsu JBalani AMukherjee SSRush AJKhan MElchehabi SHuffhines SDeMoss DRentería MESarkar JDove Medical Pressarticleopioidsbuprenorphinebuprenorphine dosingtreatment engagementtreatment retentiontreatment dropoutpredictorsNeurosciences.
