A2Q Trial Summary

This trial will test whether a computer program that sends motivational messages can help people quit smoking, compared to just receiving texts to use a quitline.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking adults who smoke, have had at least two clinical visits in the past year, and are socioeconomically disadvantaged. They must own a texting-enabled cell phone. Pregnant women, prisoners, those unable to consent, minors, and previous pilot study participants cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Adapt2Quit program is being tested against a control that only facilitates quitline use via text messages. The program sends motivational texts tailored to help users quit smoking based on their feedback on message effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves motivational messaging rather than medication or medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects associated with participation.
