Novel Treatments to Enhance Smoking Cessation Before Cancer Surgery:

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

Eligible participants will be randomized to either: 1) standard care (i.e., 4 counseling sessions and nicotine replacement therapy (NRT)) or 2) standard care + contingency management (i.e., 4 counseling sessions and NRT + 3x/week meetings with positive reinforcers)

Clinical Trial Description

Participants will be recruited through the Thoracic Oncology Program and the Head and Neck Cancers Program. At the time of their initial surgical consultation, surgeons and their support staff in the Thoracic Oncology Program and Head and Neck Cancers Program will advise all of their patients about the present smoking cessation study as well as the Smoking Cessation Service at Smilow Cancer Hospital/Yale-New Haven Hospital and other resources in the community. Patients who express interest in the study and agree to quit smoking will be met at Smilow/YNHH for an intake appointment by a research assistant. Informed consent will be obtained prior to any other procedures, then during the intake session medical and tobacco use histories and breath carbon monoxide (CO) levels will be obtained from all participants. Study eligibility will be determined in concert with the surgeon and the principal investigator. As agreed upon by the surgeons, if participants meet eligibility criteria, their surgery will be scheduled for approximately 3 weeks after they enter the study.

Eligible participants will be randomized to either: 1) standard care (i.e., 4 counseling sessions and NRT) or 2) standard care + contingency management (i.e., 4 counseling sessions and NRT + 3x/week meetings with positive reinforcers). After this, all subjects will be met by a study therapist for their first counseling session, which is a preparation to quit session. The study counseling protocol will be based on practical counseling, which is a cognitive behavioral evidence based smoking cessation treatment modality (Fiore, Jaén et al. 2008). All participants will be asked to set a quit date within a week after this session. Consistent with the standard practice of the Smoking Cessation Service, all patients will receive pharmacotherapy in conjunction with counseling. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
