Brief Title: Tobacco Treatment in the Context of Lung Cancer Screening
Official Title: Tobacco Treatment in the Context of Lung Cancer Screening
Study ID: NCT03927989
Brief Summary: The proposed study will test a medication plus text messaging intervention specifically designed for lung cancer screening patients. Half of the patients will receive standard of care, and half will receive the treatment intervention.
Detailed Description: Screening for lung cancer at earlier, more treatable stages has the potential to reduce mortality from the U.S.'s most deadly cancer. Annual lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography is now recommended for high risk individuals based on age and smoking history. This study will evaluate a smoking cessation intervention for lung cancer screening patients. We will evaluate quit rates after a standard intervention (brief counseling session at time of lung cancer screening) versus a dual nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and gain-framed text messaging intervention.
