CEASE Youth Trial Summary
This trial aims to reduce tobacco use among young people in Baltimore by offering tobacco cessation classes adapted to their needs. Participants will be randomly assigned to either peer-facilitated classes or self-navigated
Who is the study for?
This trial is for young people aged 14-21 in Baltimore City who currently use tobacco and want to quit. They must have used tobacco in the last month, be ready to stop using it, and have access to a digital device with internet or data.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two ways of quitting tobacco: one where participants attend classes led by peers (peer-facilitated) and another where they follow the program on their own (self-navigated). Both groups use the American Lung Association's Not On Tobacco program over eight weeks.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves behavioral interventions rather than medications, there are no direct side effects like you would expect from drugs. However, participants may experience typical nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, cravings, or difficulty concentrating.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Self-navigated tobacco cessationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Self-navigated tobacco cessation: The participants in the self-navigated group will receive the same ALA N-O-T program curriculum and complete the eight-week sessions, but it will be self-navigated and without peer facilitations. No peer facilitator will be assigned to this group and the participants will complete the curriculum by themselves.
Group II: Peer-facilitated tobacco cessationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Peer-facilitated tobacco cessation: Participants will be given the evidence-based N-O-T program curriculum for tobacco cessation classes and provided with virtual materials, information, and resources by their assigned peer facilitators. Virtual tobacco cessation peer motivation sessions will be offered using the digital online platform Zoom, and the peer facilitators will communicate with the participants in between the classes Peer-facilitated tobacco cessation: Participants will be given the evidence-based N-O-T program curriculum for tobacco cessation classes and provided with virtual materials, information, and resources by their assigned peer facilitators.
