The CONQUER Trial: Cessation Of Nicotine, QUitting With E-cigarette Reduction - A Single-Arm, Open-Label Clinical Trial to Assess the Efficacy of VapeAway in Promoting Vaping Cessation Compared to Historical Rates of Vaping Cessation

Summary

This clinical trial evaluates the VapeAway system, a novel, multi-modal intervention designed to address the multifaceted nature of vaping addiction. VapeAway combines progressive nicotine tapering via proprietary filters, behavioral substitution with a sensory device (Fix Bar), and structured digital support. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the investigational VapeAway system, a multi-component behavioral and nicotine-reduction intervention, for promoting cessation of nicotine-containing e-cigarette use in motivated adults. The primary objective is to determine if the VapeAway program can achieve a Continuous Abstinence Rate (CAR) of at least 25% at 30 days post-intervention completion, a rate which will be statistically compared to the historical spontaneous cessation rate of approximately 7%. Secondary objectives include assessing reductions in biochemical nicotine exposure (cotinine), vaping frequency, withdrawal symptoms, and electronic cigarette dependence, as well as characterizing the safety and tolerability profile of the intervention. Participants will be asked to follow the VapeAway system (filters, Fix Bar and timeout periods) as prescribed by the protocol for about 42 days. During this time, participants should keep track of vaping sessions throughout the trial.
