Comparing Three Multicomponent Interventions to Help Adults Quit Smoking
University of Wisconsin, Madison
Summary
The overarching goal of this program of research is to reduce smoking-related health disparities by increasing smoking cessation among Black adults. The goal of this research proposal is to determine whether more intensive, culturally specific, evidence-based interventions are more effective at promoting long-term cessation and other key patient-centered outcomes compared to the usual evidence-based standard of care: services provided by a state-run quitline. This study compares the relative effectiveness of three different treatments (Standard, Intensive, and Intensive Incentivized) on long-term smoking cessation (biochemically confirmed abstinence from combusted tobacco at 26-weeks post-target quit day) among Black adults who smoke and want to quit.
Description
Primary Objective: Identify the most effective treatment for increasing long-term smoking abstinence among Black adults who smoke. Secondary Objectives: * Compare the 3 interventions on key patient-relevant outcomes (e.g., treatment satisfaction, smoke fewer cigarettes per day, quality of life) using validated measures collected at 8 and 26 weeks post-target quit day (TQD) * Identify subgroups for whom these treatments are especially effective or ineffective with respect to the primary and secondary outcomes. * Compare indices of treatment engagement (e.g., percentage of counseling sessions…
