Filter by:The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of ED initiated NRT on tobacco cessation point abstinence rates as reported by patients at 2 weeks and 1 month post randomization, and continued abstinence rates at 3 months compared to standard of care therapy.
The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) on different forms of cognitive control in adults who smoke cigarettes, and to determine if the location where cTBS is delivered may help smokers reduce or quit smoking. Participation in the study will take 3-weeks over 4 visits, with a total time commitment of approximately 12 hours.
Characterize effects of relighting on smoke toxicant deliveries and subjective smoking measures. This will be a within-subject comparison in a single experimental group of 30 smokers who report engaging in relighting behaviors. We will assess smoking intensity for relit and non-relit (i.e., smoked continuously without relighting) cigarettes in the natural environment and will conduct in-clinic measurements of smoking topography and subjective responses for relit and non-relit cigarettes. Information on relighting patterns and smoking topography collected from each participant will be used to compare machine-measured smoke yields of key harmful constituents when their usual cigarettes are smoked with and without relighting. Hypothesis: Relit cigarettes will produce higher levels of toxicants than non-relit cigarettes.
To inform a future randomized trial of a virtual counselor led computer delivered intervention for tobacco cessation augmented with community health worker (CHW) support and navigation to lung cancer screening in low-income housing units in Baltimore, the investigators propose to collect data on intervention acceptability and feasibility among individuals in public housing as well as feedback on use of shared decision making when referring for low-dose chest CT (LDCT). The investigators will conduct a feasibility pilot study of a virtual counselor plus community health worker intervention. With a sample of participants from public housing units (N=15), the investigators will collect data on feasibility of recruitment, intervention engagement and completion, and short-term smoking cessation outcomes. Individuals will be assessed at baseline, 1 month and 3 months. At the end of three months, the investigators will conduct follow up interviews with a subset of pilot participants to collect qualitative data on intervention acceptability. Based on this information, the investigators will make iterative improvements to the combined intervention.
The goal of this project is to better understand the relationship between tobacco/nicotine and cannabis using behavioral economics during a tobacco/nicotine quit attempt. All participants will receive tobacco/nicotine cessation treatment (smoking and/or vaping treatment) for 12 weeks. To qualify, participants must be between the ages of 18-25 and use tobacco products (smoke cigarettes and/or vape nicotine) and use cannabis (in any form). Participants do not need to be interested in quitting cannabis/marijuana to qualify. This study is being conducted by the Medical University of South Carolina. All procedures are conducted remotely and there is no in-person visits are needed.
The goal of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of cannabidiol (CBD) in reducing cigarette smoking. Although there are safe and effective treatments for smoking cessation, not everyone who attempts smoking cessation is successful, even with these treatments. Relapse rates are high, leaving a need for new approaches. Despite justification to evaluate CBD for this indication, human research on the topic is scant. Larger, more extended studies are warranted and essential. We will recruit participants from CRI-Help, Inc., a substance abuse treatment program in North Hollywood, where residents who indicate the desire to stop smoking are prohibited from using other cannabis products which would affect recruitment. The aims of this study are: 1. Evaluate the effects of CBD on reduction of cigarette use. The primary endpoint will be reduction in cigarette use, indexed by self-reported cigarettes/day and plasma cotinine. The secondary endpoint will be abstinence from smoking, indexed categorically by self-report and confirmed biochemically by expired carbon monoxide (CO) during the last 2 weeks of the trial. 2. Evaluate CBD effects on participant retention. The primary endpoint will be retention in the trial, indicated by number of days that participants continue in the trial. Secondary endpoints will be nicotine dependence and withdrawal (measured weekly on the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence and Minnesota Withdrawal Scale, respectively), and mood states (measured weekly on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 screener). 3. Exploratory Aims. Measure CBD and endocannabinoids. Plasma concentrations of CBD, N-arachidonoyl-ethanolamine (anandamide) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), will be measured at baseline and at specified times throughout the trial. The primary endpoint will be CBD plasma level. Participants who meet eligibility criteria will take part in a 56-day treatment phase during which they receive the study medication under supervision (CBD or placebo twice daily) and complete questionnaires on side effects, withdrawal, craving and mood symptoms. Blood, breath, and urine tests will also be performed throughout the study. Participants who complete the treatment will also be assessed at 1-month and 3-month follow up visits.
This study evaluates how synthetic cooling additives like WS-3 and WS-23 impact e-cigarette perceptions, use behavior, and toxicant exposure.
Comprehensive smoke-free policies have the potential to substantially reduce tobacco-related disparities among populations in subsidized housing. This study fills this gap by identifying approaches to increase the implementation of smoke-free policies in all types of subsidized housing by increasing the voluntary adoption of smoke-free homes and promoting access to smoking cessation services.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to understand the health effects of a new oral nicotine pouch, and also to understand if this product can help reduce traditional cigarette smoking. The main aims are: 1. Understand the impact of nicotine pouch use on toxicant exposure biomarkers, and indicators of potential harms to health. 2. Examine the influence of nicotine pouch use on conventional tobacco product use (cigarettes). Participants will be randomized to one of six nicotine pouch groups (3 nicotine strengths, each with 2 potential flavors) to use over 16 weeks and asked to reduce their cigarette smoking over that time by at least 75% by substituting with the use of the nicotine pouches. Researchers will compare the outcomes of the different nicotine pouch strengths and flavors to each other. Participants will be asked to complete study questionnaires and provide urine, exhaled carbon monoxide, and mouth cell samples, and other health measurements.
This study seeks to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an intervention consisting of off-label use of a medication with strong efficacy data for alcohol use disorder (AUD) with medical management and a clinical pharmacist-delivered behavioral intervention in reducing alcohol use among individuals with HIV and AUD.
