Family Smoking Cessation in Romania Using Pregnancy as a Window of

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research is to adapt and implement a pregnancy and postnatal smoking cessation intervention for couple that will begin early in pregnancy and have an additional postnatal component.

Clinical Trial Description

Pregnancy smoking and postnatal relapse are highly prevalent in Romania and Central and Eastern Europe, with lifetime negative health effects for the women and their children. There are higher odds of female smoking persistence during pregnancy, and of relapse once pregnant women quit, when the male partner also smokes. Building on ongoing pilot work led by Dr. Meghea with Babes-Bolyai University (BBU) in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, the overall objective of the proposed research, conducted through BBU in the same target population as the ongoing pilot, is to adapt, enhance, and test the implementation feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an evidence-based pregnancy and postnatal couple intervention for smoking cessation that begins early in pregnancy and has a postnatal component. The intervention will be based on the motivation and problem solving (MAPS) approach, successful in preventing smoking relapse postpartum in the US, which will be enhanced by targeting the couples' smoking behavior by focusing on dyadic efficacy for smoking cessation. The target population is primigravida pregnant women and their partners in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The specific aims are: (1) To develop an adapted and enhanced couple intervention to reduce pregnancy smoking and postpartum relapse in Romania based on the MAPS approach. (2) To conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to test the fidelity of the culturally adapted MAPS intervention enhanced for couples smoking prevention during pregnancy and postpartum. (3) To examine in the pilot the implementation feasibility and initial efficacy in increasing maternal pregnancy smoking cessation and reducing postnatal relapse, with secondary hypotheses regarding maternal smoking reduction and spousal cessation, relapse, and reduction. This study will form the basis for a larger, multicenter clinical trial that will be submitted by Dr. Meghea as an R01 application by the end of the 4th year of this award to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed smoking prevention intervention. If proven effective in the subsequent R01 trial, the intervention has a high potential for broad spectrum population impact and sustainability. The long-term goal is the adoption in the national Romanian health system as a proactive extension of the existing STOP SMOKING national program which includes a quitline. ;

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.
