About this study

The purpose of this study is to find an optimal smoking cessation strategy in patients undergoing therapy for lung and head and neck cancers at selected cancer centers in Kentucky by delivering high quality smoking cessation to all enrolled patients. This study will also examine the feasibility of routinely implementing an array of smoking cessation strategies for this patient population.

Read the detailed description

Subjects enrolled in the study will be placed in one of twelve treatment arms. Subjects in each of the twelve treatment regimens will receive either varenicline or bupropion or long-acting nicotine replacement therapy, with or without use of supplemental nicotine replacement therapy, and in combination with either standard of care smoking cessation counseling or high intensity/motivational smoking cessation counseling.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing High Intensity Counseling + Long Acting NRT + PRN NRT, High Intensity Counseling + bupropion + PRN NRT and High Intensity Counseling + varenicline + PRN NRT in people with Lung Cancer and Head and Neck Cancer, run by University of Kentucky at 10 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cigarette use (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02048917, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jan 2020.
