This clinical trial compares the use of tobacco flavored electronic cigarettes (ECs) vs. non-tobacco flavored ECs vs. nicotine replacement therapy (patches and lozenges) on smoking behavior in current cigarette smokers. ECs may reduce cigarette craving and withdrawal symptoms, increase motivation and confidence to stop cigarette smoking, and decrease cigarette smoking and dependence. By comparing participants' preferred flavor ECs (PEC) to tobacco flavor ECs (TEC) to NRT, researchers hope to determine the effect of EC flavors on appeal and use and learn how ECs affect smoking behaviors and health.

Smoking cessation has been shown to improve the effectiveness and reduce the morbidity of tobacco-related cancer treatments. We will identify effective smoking cessation strategies for patients who are receiving treatment for tobacco-related cancer. In this trial, patients' preferences in smoking cessation therapy will be the principal determinant by providers in developing a three component regimen of pharmaceutical therapy, counseling, and nicotine replacement therapy. This study will identify this cohort's preferences for smoking cessation strategies. We will then examine the impact of utilizing patient preferences upon cessation efficacy by directly comparing cessation success in this study with our recently completed study of the same population using the same tobacco treatments which were randomly assigned.

Tobacco use disorder is a chronic, relapsing health condition that necessitates a chronic care approach. However, traditional smoking cessation treatment programs allocate nearly all their resources only to those smokers who are willing to set a quit date. This is problematic because few smokers are ready to set a quit date at any given time, and a smoker's stated intention to quit can change rapidly. One novel potential treatment strategy is to foster practice quitting (PQ), defined as attempting to not smoke for a few hours or days, without pressure or expectation to permanently quit. Although a growing body of evidence supports the role of practice quitting in fostering permanent quit attempts and cessation, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding which treatment strategies should be used to engage smokers in practice quitting. The proposed study will test the role of PQ counseling vs. Motivational Interviewing (MI) counseling, and NRT sampling (four-week supply of nicotine lozenges and patches) vs. none.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
The study team proposes a multi-level trial to test 1) novel implementation programs in rural counties designed to increase access to 2) recent advances in tobacco control services for people who are not-yet-ready-to-quit smoking. In this field, most trials have focused only on those already ready-to-quit. Thus, the proposed trial addresses an important knowledge gap critical to advance tobacco control in rural areas.

Tobacco use is a risk factor for at least 20 types of cancer and remains the leading preventable cause of cancer in Canada. Smoking cessation is an important cancer prevention strategy for the close to 2 million Canadian women who currently smoke. However, findings from controlled trials and real-world clinical settings indicate that women have greater difficulty achieving abstinence following a quit attempt than men. There is some evidence that hormonal levels and fluctuations throughout the menstrual cycle (MC) may contribute to the greater difficulty women experience when trying to quit smoking. In this study, the start of a quit attempt using nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) will be targeted to specific phases of MC. It was hypothesized that starting a quit attempt during the first half of MC (follicular phase) will result in increased quit success compared to starting during the second half of MC (luteal phase) or the usual practice of not targeting quit start date to MC phase.

Tobacco use is the number one preventable cause of the death in the United States, and is high among US Veterans, and those who have experienced trauma are more likely to smoke. Despite the efficacy of current evidence-based treatments for smoking cessation, there is a critical need for alternative treatments. This project seeks to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a smoking cessation treatment for Veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who smoke. The treatment combines smoking cessation counseling, nicotine replacement therapy (e.g., nicotine gum), and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). rTMS is a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment that has been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration for smoking cessation in adults.

The purpose of this an open-label, randomized controlled trial study is to compare the effectiveness of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes/e-cigs) versus telehealth motivational counseling with combination nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) + telehealth counseling on combustible cigarettes smoking reduction among persons with opioid use disorder (OUD) in methadone and buprenorphine treatment programs (opioid use disorder treatment programs (OUDTP)). OUDTP patients are a population with exceptionally high combustible cigarettes smoking burden and yet limited success in achieving meaningful clinical outcomes in tobacco treatment. If effective, electronic cigarettes would provide an additional tool for tobacco harm reduction among this difficult-to-treat vulnerable population.

The purpose of this pilot randomized controlled trial study aims to address the unmet need for feasible and efficacious strategies for reducing combustible cigarette (CC) use among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in South Africa, which has the potential to significantly improve the health and long-term survival of PLWHA CC smokers. Using the proposed intervention, based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB), and a simultaneous embedded mixed methods approach, the investigators will evaluate a telehealth program targeting CC harm reduction, comparing E-cigarettes (EC) to nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) that is enhanced by integrating ecological momentary intervention (EMI) texting. As such, this proposal will significantly build research capacity in South Africa to conduct telehealth tobacco treatment interventions using innovative EMI approaches enhancing participants' engagement, as well as state-of-the art evaluation approaches.

This study aims to determine if a standardized approach including counselling and Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) can help e-cigarette users quit vaping. Current e-cigarette users will be randomly assigned to either to counselling and NRT or counselling only group. Self-reported rates of vaping cessation will be measured throughout the year in both groups. The use of e-cigarettes has grown substantially among non-smokers, particularly among youth and young adults. These devices deliver high levels of nicotine, far greater than is possible with conventional cigarettes. Currently, they are not approved for smoking cessation or any purpose by Health Canada. Nonetheless, there is some evidence that e-cigarettes may be of assistance in smoking cessation. Conversely, there is evidence that using cigarettes and e-cigarettes together may result in increased cigarette consumption. E-cigarette use among youth also serves as a gateway to regular use of conventional cigarettes. Clinicians and patients are seeking guidance on vaping cessation. However, to date, there are no strong evidence-based interventions to support e-cigarette users in quitting. NRT is approved for smoking cessation by Health Canada. However, it is not approved for vaping cessation and thus its use to support e-cigarette users to quit by managing their nicotine withdrawal is considered "off-label". This represents a significant gap and opportunity, which this project will address. The study hypothesizes that the OMSC approach, which includes the use of nicotine replacement therapy, will result in higher rates of vaping cessation compared to usual care. Participants will all complete an initial counselling session to discuss vaping cessation and receive tips to help achieve cessation. They will all be asked to track their smoking/vaping behaviour and the amount of tobacco in their e-cigarette for 7 days. After 7 days, all participants will be randomly put into one of two groups (either the intervention or control group). They will have follow-up assessments with the research team at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months.

Objectives: Primary Aim: To conduct a preliminary randomized trial in smokers with current recurrent major depressive disorder (MDD), current MDD with a single episode of 2 years or more, and current dysthymia comparing combined cognitive behavioral analysis system of psychotherapy (CBASP) and standard smoking cessation treatment (ST) (CBASP/ST) to combined Health Education and ST treatment (HE/ST) to: 1. Examine the effects of CBASP/ST on both short and long-term point prevalence abstinence Secondary Aims: 1. To test the hypothesis that depressed smokers in the CBASP/ST treatment will experience greater decreases in depressive symptoms from baseline to each of our follow-up assessment points, compared to depressed smokers in the HE/ST treatment, and; 2. That depressed smokers in the CBASP/ST treatment will experience greater improvements in psychosocial functioning from baseline to follow-up assessment points, compared to depressed smokers in the ST treatment. 3. To evaluate between subject neurophysiological predictors of abstinence at 3 and 6 months, and: 4. To evaluate within-subject changes in neurophysiological responses to emotional and smoking-related stimuli across treatment sessions, and the relation of these changes to abstinence and depressive symptoms at end of treatment, and 3- and 6-months.

This clinical trial investigates the effects of switching from smoking regular cigarettes to electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) among older adult smokers at high risk for lung cancer. E-cigarettes use heated vapor to deliver nicotine. Information gained from this trial may help inform regulators of the potential risks and benefits of switching smokers at high risk for lung cancer to electronic cigarettes. This research also may help inform the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) how best to regulate e-cigarettes with the goal of improving public health.

Nicotine enhances auditory-cognitive function because it mimics the brain's system for "paying attention" to important sounds amid distractions (for example, understanding speech in a noisy environment). In part, nicotine does this by activating inhibitory neurons in the auditory cortex. Since age-related hearing deficits result, in part, from the loss of inhibitory neurons in auditory cortex, this project will determine whether nicotine's effects can compensate for reduced inhibition in the aging auditory cortex and thereby restore auditory function. The investigators will use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure the selectivity of responses in auditory cortex to tones of various frequencies. The investigators will measure the effects of nicotine (administered as chewing gum) and aging on these fMRI response properties. The investigators hypothesize that frequency selectivity will decrease with aging and increase following nicotine administration.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do 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 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 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 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 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.
