Study Summary

This trial is testing different ways to get people who smoke to use treatments to help them quit, with the goal of reducing tobacco-related cancer morbidity and mortality.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adult primary care patients who smoke daily, are not ready to quit yet, and can speak/read English. They must smoke at least five cigarettes a day for the past six months and have smoked every day in the week before joining. People with severe allergies or kidney disease that prevent them from using nicotine replacement therapy or varenicline, those with recent suicide attempts or current psychotic disorders, or who want to quit within 30 days are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests whether financial incentives, tailored outreach materials, proactive calls from a tobacco care manager, and access to free smoking cessation counseling and medication help smokers start treatment. It's a complex experiment comparing different combinations of these methods over two years to see which helps more people stop smoking.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include skin irritation from nicotine patches; mouth issues like soreness with lozenges; nausea, sleep problems or mood changes with varenicline; plus potential stress related to quitting smoking such as irritability and cravings.
