Study Summary

This trial looks at how nicotine patches may help prevent cancer in rural & Appalachian Ohio. Little is known about the appeal & potential health impact of nicotine pouches.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 who live in Ohio Appalachia or nearby rural areas, use smokeless tobacco daily, and can abstain from all tobacco, nicotine, and marijuana before clinic visits. It's not for those with certain lung diseases, oral cancers, recent heart issues, pregnant/breastfeeding women, people planning to quit tobacco soon or using cessation aids.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study looks at the impact of nicotine pouches as a substitute for smokeless tobacco among residents of rural Ohio. Participants will collect biospecimens and answer questionnaires to help researchers understand how these products are adopted and their public health implications.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves collecting biospecimens and administering questionnaires rather than testing a drug intervention directly on participants' health conditions like cancer itself; it does not list specific side effects related to treatments such as medications.
