The goal of this research study is to learn how cultural, environmental, and interpersonal experiences, as well as personal thoughts and feelings, influence cancer risk behaviors among Latino residents of Houston, Texas.

Study Participation:

If you are eligible and choose to take part in this study, you can choose to visit the clinic 2 times or have research staff visit you in your home or a community setting (such as a church or community center) 2 times.

At the first visit (this is the same visit where you complete the in-person screening test):

* You will have your height, weight, and waistline measured.
* You will be given a smart phone to take home with you. You will answer questions on the smart phone up to 5 times a day for 7 days. The phone will beep at random times (4 times per day) and set times (in the evening) to prompt you to answer questions about what you are doing and your current thoughts and feelings. These questions should take about 5-7 minutes to complete each time.
* You will be given an accelerometer (a movement meter). The accelerometer is a small device worn on your hip that measures the amount of physical activity you do. You will wear the accelerometer for 7 days in a row.
* You will receive training on how to use the smart phone and the accelerometer.

At the second visit, you will return the smart phone and the accelerometer.

At both study visits, you will be asked to complete questionnaires that ask about your feelings, moods, and behaviors. You will complete 36 questionnaires at the first visit (a total of 474 questions) and 25 questionnaires at the second visit (a total of 278 questions). These questionnaires should take about 60 to 90 minutes to complete.

Throughout the study, you will be contacted by mail, email, or telephone for reminders of visits. You will be reminded before each visit. You will be asked to provide the names and contact information for family and/or friends should the study staff have trouble reaching you.

Confidentiality:

Each time you complete a survey on the smart phone, your answers will be saved on the phone. When you return the phone, all of your answers will be downloaded from the phone to a secure server, where they will be stored. Then, all of your information will be deleted from the phone. Your name or other personal information will not be stored on the phone.

Your name and other identifying information will not be stored together in the same files as other information you provide during your participation in the study. The link between your identifying information and other data will be kept in a separate file and securely protected. The link between you and the study data will be destroyed 5 years after the study ends.

Length of Study:

You will be considered off study when you complete the second visit.

This is an investigational study.

Up to 225 participants will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Diana S. Hoover, PHD

The goal of this research study is to learn about 2 different interactive methods that are designed to help people with HIV/AIDS stop smoking.

Baseline Questionnaire:

If you agree to take part in this study, you will complete a questionnaire on a laptop about your feelings, mood, health, thoughts about smoking, thoughts about quitting smoking, smoking history, and some demographic information such as age, education level, and income level. This should take about 15-20 minutes to complete.

Study Groups:

After completing the questionnaire, you will be randomly assigned (as in the flip of a coin) to 1 of 2 study groups. You will have an equal chance of being placed in either group.

Both groups will receive smart phones and an 8-week supply of nicotine patches with instructions on how to use them. Each group will receive different methods of advice for quitting smoking.

If you are assigned to Group 1, the following study procedures will be performed:

* You will receive brief advice on how to quit smoking once at the time of enrollment. The advice will be given from a pamphlet that has information such as health problems related to smoking, how many Americans are affected each year, financial problems related to smoking, nicotine replacement therapy options, preparation for quitting smoking, and encouragement to quit.
* On the smart phone, you will have 5 phone counseling sessions for support in quitting smoking throughout the 8-week intervention treatment. The calls should last about 15 minutes.

If you are assigned to Group 2, the following study procedures will be performed:

* On the smart phone, you will receive brief video clips with advice on how to quit smoking, as well as interactive text and picture messages once a week for 8 weeks. The video clips will be about 5 minutes long.
* You will also have access to additional counseling content on the smart phone, which you can use at any time.

Weekly Smart Phone Questionnaires:

Both groups will complete questionnaires on the smart phone every week for 8 weeks. Each questionnaire will have questions about your current smoking status, your motivation level to stop smoking, and things that may have a negative effect on your quitting. The questionnaire should take about 15 minutes to complete.

Follow-up Saliva Test and Questionnaire:

About 3 months after your first smart phone intervention, both groups will complete a saliva test and take a photograph of the test results. The saliva test results will be used to check your smoking activity. Supplies and instructions will be given to you when you are enrolled on the study and the instructions will be available on the smart phone. You will also complete a questionnaire similar to the baseline questionnaire.

Length of Study:

You will be on study for about 3 months.

This is an investigational study. Up to 50 participants will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at the Harris Health System (Thomas Street Health Center).

Mobile Media-Rich Interactive Guideline System (MMRIGS) Pilot Study

Mobile Smoking Cessation Treatment for Underserved Smokers: A Pilot and Feasibility Study

Smoking abstinence defined as number of participants with biochemically 7-day abstinence confirmed with weekly smart-phone assessments. Saliva cotinine levels, assessed with NicAlert test strips, used to biochemically verify abstinence. Participants will complete the NicAlert saliva cotinine test (supplies given at enrollment) and take a photograph of the test strip results. In primary abstinence analysis for difference in cessation rate between interventions, participants who do not complete follow-up assessments considered to be smokers.

Participants receive 15-minute proactive weekly phone counseling sessions via smartphone along with supply of nicotine patches for 8-week period to support quitting smoking.

Standard Treatment (ST)

Participants receive brief weekly advice (tailored 5 minute video clips) and 8-week automated intervention (interactive text messages and graphical messages via smartphone) along with supply of nicotine patches for 8-week period to support quitting smoking.
