Clinical Trial Summary

The overarching goal of this translational proposal is to determine if neuroactive flavor chemicals can enhance the addiction potential of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) by altering brain function and behavior.


Clinical Trial Description

For this randomized double-blind controlled trial, tobacco users will be randomized to use ENDS with an e-liquid containing a neuroactive green-apple flavor (hexyl acetate) vs. an inactive green-apple flavor (ethyl acetate) for ten days as a supplement to their typical tobacco use. Laboratory measures of ENDS reinforcement, subjective ENDS ratings, and brain reactivity to the flavor using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be collected at baseline and after ten days of ENDS use. ;
