Vaping Cessation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Pilot Study of a Smartphone-Based Vaping Cessation Program
Prospective, open label, single center clinical study enrolling up to 100 participants to evaluate the effect of the Pivot vaping cessation program.
This is a prospective, open label, single center clinical study conducted with IRB approval enrolling up to 100 adult participants who report daily vaping. The study will be performed remotely on an ambulatory basis. Participants will be asked to set up and use the "Pivot for Vape" program. The program includes an app, moderated online community, and SMS-based coaching with a tobacco treatment specialist. The study duration is 52 weeks, with the estimated active time using the program of up to 6 months and the time thereafter as follow-up. Participants will receive online questionnaires at intervals throughout the study. Potential participants will complete an online screening form. Eligible participants will be called to confirm eligibility, discuss the study, and have their questions about the study answered. Interested eligible participants will complete the electronic informed consent form and baseline questionnaire prior to downloading the app on their smartphone. The investigators aim to assess the performance of the "Pivot for Vape" program, with a focus on assessing use and engagement, changes in attitudes towards quitting vaping and changes in vaping behavior over the course of the 1-year study, as well as participant feedback on the set-up, design, use experience, and impact of the program. ;
