Oral Nicotine Products for Nicotine Addiction

Los Angeles, California
There has been a recent proliferation of novel oral nicotine products (ONPs) brought to market, including new nicotine gums and pouches. Unlike electronic cigarettes (ECs) ONPs have no impending regulatory barriers with regard to flavoring or nicotine dose, and manufacturers have capitalized on this by introducing an extensive slate of characterizing flavors and nicotine concentrations. Both sales trajectory and the surge in marketing suggest ONP use is likely to increase in the coming years. Work by the investigators and others indicates that interest in these products is high among current EC users, and among specific demographic groups including those who identify as sexual and gender minority (SGM). ONP use is discrete and so can function as a secondary source of nicotine, encouraging dual use patterns and more severe nicotine dependence. Depending on the use patterns of ONPs that emerge, regulation of ONPs may serve the public health interest. However, very little is known about factors relevant to the actual appeal and abuse liability of these products. The investigators propose to address this important gap by assessing the appeal and abuse liability of gum and pouch ONPs as a function of flavor (mint vs fruit) and nicotine concentration (2mg vs. 4mg). Flavor and nicotine strength, along with product type, are regulatable attributes, and so it is essential to understand their impact on appeal and abuse liability. Evidence from EC use suggests a potential interaction between flavor and nicotine strength, with flavorants in the "mint" category desensitizing receptors integral to the aversive sensory experience of nicotine, leading to greater tolerability of high nicotine concentration. Because of current ONP marketing emphasis on youth, the investigators will recruit young adult exclusive EC users (N = 320; ages 21 - 25). The investigators will target recruitment of a sufficient number of SGM participants (N = 64, 20% of sample) to allow assessment of potential differentiation of this group. Participants will complete one virtual session focused on assessment of the sensory appeal of ONPs. Based on individual participant ratings, the preferred fruit and the preferred mint ONP will be selected (from their randomized product type and nicotine strength) to each be assessed in a single-product session examining factors known to predict abuse liability (relief of withdrawal, liking, behavioral economic indices of demand, and follow-up naturalistic product use). The investigators will pay particular attention to evidence suggesting dual use potential of ONPs, given its association with greater severity of nicotine dependence. The proposed work will inform efforts to mitigate ONPs potential to promote dual-use and more severe nicotine dependence among young adult EC users, by isolating the impact of potential regulatory targets.

Cannabidiol for Tobacco Addiction

North Hollywood, California
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. The investigators 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 changes in cigarette use throughout and following the trial. 2. Exploratory Aims. Measure plasma concentrations of CBD, N-arachidonoyl-ethanolamine (anandamide) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) throughout the trial. 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.

ACT on Vaping App for Nicotine Addiction

Seattle, Washington
This clinical trial evaluates a smartphone application (app) called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on Vaping for helping young adults quit using electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). E-cigarettes pose numerous risks, particularly to youth and young adults. Addressing the high prevalence of e-cigarette use by young adults requires effective and accessible treatments to support current users to quit. Research shows this group prefers and benefits from newer methods of treatment delivery such as digital interventions. ACT on Vaping is a digital therapeutic intended to deliver behavioral therapy to young adults who vape to motivate and support abstinence from all nicotine and tobacco products. The app contains sessions that promote awareness of cues that trigger tobacco use and teach skills for responding to these triggers in a way that is tailored for the participant's readiness to quit. Receiving access to the ACT on Vaping app may be effective in helping young adults quit vaping.

Contingency Management for Tobacco Use Disorder

San Francisco, California
The goal of this study is to design and test the first mobile contingency management (CM) smoking cessation intervention for military Veterans undergoing major elective surgery. Smoking is the leading risk factor for postoperative complications and is associated with longer hospital stays, reoperations, and 30-day mortality. Smoking rates among patients undergoing major elective surgery are high, 22.3-43.0%. It is imperative to identify efficacious, strategically timed smoking cessation interventions for surgery patients. CM incentivizes smoking cessation through positive reinforcement (rewards) when bioverified abstinence is achieved. To ensure feasibility, CM must be tailored to the clinical context. CM for smoking cessation has never been delivered before and after major surgery, nor has mobile CM bioverification been trialed perioperatively. The investigators will develop and test a tailored mobile smoking cessation CM protocol for Veterans undergoing major elective surgery.

Contingency Management for Tobacco Use Disorder

San Francisco, California
Tobacco use among US Veterans poses significant health problems and challenges to their overall well-being. The aim of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of a program called Contingency Management (CM) in helping Veterans quit smoking during lung cancer screening or cancer care at VA clinics. CM is a behavioral treatment that uses rewards to encourage smoking cessation when verified through biological testing. In the first year, the researchers will develop a mobile CM protocol based on feedback from Veterans and healthcare staff through focus groups. In the second year, they will conduct a pilot study to test the feasibility of the mobile CM program along with counseling and medication for 20 Veterans over a five-week period. The success of the pilot study will determine whether to proceed with a larger randomized controlled trial (RCT) in years three to six, comparing the efficacy of mobile CM with standard treatment. The project will take place at SFVA.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Tobacco Use Disorder clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Tobacco Use Disorder clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Tobacco Use Disorder trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Tobacco Use Disorder is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Tobacco Use Disorder medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Tobacco Use Disorder clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Varenicline for Smoking, AI-Enhanced App for Nicotine Addiction and ACT on Vaping App for Nicotine Addiction to the Power online platform.
