Filter by:This trial refines and evaluates how cultural targeting influences the effectiveness of anti-tobacco messages among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) young adults at risk for the use of more than one tobacco product (polytobacco use). Polytobacco use is associated with nicotine dependence and tobacco use into adulthood, and is disproportionately high among LGBT young adults. This trial seeks to determine how cultural targeting can be applied to communicate polytobacco use risk to at-risk LGBT young adults.
This clinical trial evaluates how the content of waterpipe (WP) tobacco affects the appeal, puffing behavior, and toxicity of WP tobacco smoking. The data from the proposed study will provide direct links between WP tobacco's primary additives (sugars and humectants), CO and nicotine biomarkers, smoker preferences, perceptions of harm and puffing behaviors, and the subsequent range of toxicant exposures associated with these additives and behaviors. Study outcomes include waterpipe puffing behaviors, exhaled carbon monoxide levels, nicotine uptake, spirometry, sensory perceptions, smoking appeal, and risk perception. Waterpipe tobacco smoking is often the first combustible tobacco product tried by adolescents and young adults, possibly due to the widespread availability of heavily sweetened waterpipe tobacco and the perception that waterpipe smoking is a safer alternative to cigarette smoking. However, waterpipe tobacco smoking is associated with lung disease, carbon monoxide poisoning, and precursor conditions for oral and other cancers in adolescents and young adults. There is currently little data available on how the primary additives (by weight) in waterpipe tobacco affect puffing behaviors, toxicant exposures, pulmonary function and appeal. This clinical trial uses established waterpipe tobacco smokers, four investigational tobacco products with precisely manipulated levels of humectants and natural sugars in a single-blind, crossover (repeated measures) study design to determine how waterpipe tobacco additives effect human puffing behavior, nicotine uptake, flavor perceptions, lung function, and biomarkers of exposure.

This trial investigates how well a smartphone-based smoking cessation program called SmartQuit works to help patients stop smoking. SmartQuit is an smartphone application-based smoking cessation program that includes a defined program consisting of interactive evidence-based exercises for dealing more effectively with urges to smoke, a place to track desired behaviors, personalized plans for quitting, and a certificate of completion once the recommended program components are completed. SmartQuit may help patients quit smoking, lower healthcare costs and reduce premature tobacco-related deaths.
This trial studies how well black raspberry nectar works in changing the gut microbiome and in reducing inflammatory processes that may lead to lung cancer. Studying the effects of black raspberry beverage on inflammation may help doctors find strategies to reduce the risk of developing lung cancer.
This randomized early phase I trial studies how well broccoli sprout/broccoli seed extract supplement works in decreasing toxicity in heavy smokers. Broccoli sprout/broccoli seed extract supplement is a dietary supplement made from broccoli sprout and seed extract powder, and may break down some of the cancer causing substances in tobacco smoke and produce substances that may protect cells from tobacco smoke-induced damage in current smokers.
Avmacol is an over-the-counter dietary supplement containing broccoli seed and sprout extracts in tablet form, hypothesized to activate protective cellular pathways including detoxication. In this study, participants who have been curatively treatment for head and neck cancer, will take Avmacol twice a day for 3 months.
The purpose of this study is to compare intensive telephone counseling (ITC) plus the nicotine patch vs. standard telephone counseling plus the nicotine patch (Usual Care; UC) among current smokers undergoing lung cancer screening. Smoking-related outcomes will be examined at three, six and twelve months post-randomization.
This study is being done to see whether Avmacol®, a dietary supplement made from broccoli sprout and seed extract powder, induces changes in inner cheek cells that may be protective against environmental toxins such as tobacco. There are three main goals of the study: 1. To learn whether the dietary supplement, Avmacol®, can stimulate cheek cells to repair damage from environmental toxins; 2. to learn how the body metabolizes Avmacol®, by measuring its byproducts in the participant's urine and blood; 3. to learn whether the immune system can be stimulated by Avmacol®, by studying the natural killer cells and T cells in the participant's blood.
