UW Withdraw From Tobacco Study

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

It is of considerable scientific and clinical importance to assess tobacco withdrawal accurately since withdrawal severity is highly determinant of smoking cessation success. In addition, smoking cessation pharmacotherapy produces its effects on smoking abstinence by suppressing such symptoms. However, in order to ensure that a measure of tobacco withdrawal is sensitive to severe withdrawal, it is essential to examine a period of unmedicated abstinence. The current study aims to validate, and possibly enhance, a revised Wisconsin Smoking Withdrawal Scale long and brief version for use in research and clinical settings. Two hundred adults who smoke cigarettes daily and report a desire to quit smoking will be enrolled. This is a treatment-delay, one-group clinical trial that is intended to enhance the assessment of tobacco withdrawal amongst participants who try to quit smoking with delayed use of cessation medication. Participants will not receive any pharmacotherapy during the first 1 week of their quit attempt and will initiate 8 weeks of combination nicotine replacement therapy (C-NRT; nicotine patch + nicotine mini-lozenge) starting 1 week past the target quit day (TQD). Participants will receive 4 counseling sessions as well (1 pre-quit, 3 post-quit). Participants will complete 4 weeks of ecological momentary assessment (EMA) smartphone surveys including a 2-week baseline (starting TQD-14) and 2-week post-TQD (1-week un-medicated, 1-week using C-NRT).
