Filter by: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.
This is an explorative, open-label, randomised, 3-way cross-over study to assess pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety and tolerability, nicotine extraction, palatability and subjective effects after single use of nicotine pouches in daily nicotine users.
ABSTRACT Aim: Our study aimed to determine the approaches of our physicians to the smoking habits of their patients other than those with pulmonary diseases. Method: Patients examined in different outpatient clinics of our hospital will be asked 7 questions about the doctor's approach to smoking habits. 1) Do you have information about smoking cessation clinic? 2) Has your doctor asked if you smoke? 3) Did he suggest you stop using it? 4) Did he inform you about the relationship between smoking and your disease? 5) Did he provide information about smoking cessation outpatient clinic services? 6) Have you ever thought about quitting smoking after your doctor's briefing? 7) Did you quit smoking after your doctor's briefing?
PRECESTO is a randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial on 34 smokers who do not want to stop smoking and get high satisfaction from smoking. The primary objective is to assess efficacy of NFL-101 in reducing the positive reinforcing properties of cigarettes compared to placebo measured by the modified Cigarette Evaluation Questionnaire (mCEQ) "Smoking Satisfaction" (items 1, 2, and 12) subscale.
The study will recruit an anticipated 256 adults who currently smoke cigarettes and report a willingness to try switching to alternative, non-combustible products. Participants will be randomized to receive either e-cigarettes or nicotine pouches for a duration of 4 weeks and to 1 of 4 possible regulatory scenarios within products where flavor availability is either menthol and tobacco/unflavored available or tobacco/unflavored only available, and nicotine concentration is either higher (5% e-cig, 6mg pouch) or lower (2.4% e-cig, 3mg pouch). Participants will return for bi-weekly research visits (in person or remote videocall) to complete measures for study aims. Participants will complete a final follow-up at Week 6 to assess maintenance of cigarette reduction and willingness to continue using products once they are no longer provided. The investigators expect to observe which products and constituents lead to greater smoking reduction.
Anxiety sensitivity, reflecting the fear of bodily sensations, is a risk factor for the maintenance and relapse of smoking. This study is designed to address the question - is a smoking cessation intervention personalized to high anxiety sensitive smokers and adapted for implementation by the YMCA effective among racially/ethnically diverse samples?
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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness of smoke-free housing policy implementation in Permanent Supportive Housing communities. The main objective of this study is to identify and refine adaptations for a smoke-free housing implementation framework that incorporates behavioral health support and meets the needs of residents living in Permanent Supportive Housing.
