Dissemination of a Tailored Tobacco Quitline for Rural Veteran Smokers

Nicotine DependenceTobacco Use

The project is designed to examine the effectiveness of strategies to increase access to treatment for tobacco use and dependence among rural Veteran smokers. In addition, it will examine whether tailored treatment that is designed to address common comorbid conditions that are related to cigarette smoking enhances success with quitting relative to enhanced standard of care. The investigators hypothesize that participants assigned to the tailored tobacco cessation intervention will report greater cessation rates at six months. The investigators also anticipate more favorable outcomes on measures of depressive symptoms, alcohol use, and body weight.

Tobacco Dependence in Breast Cancer Patients Trial of Varenicline (Chantix)

Breast CancerTobacco Dependence

Breast cancer patients who smoke, are at greater risk for treatment complications. The purpose of this study is to see if the researchers can find ways to help patients who have breast cancer quit smoking. They will compare two ways to help people quit smoking. Some patients will receive varenicline, a prescription medicine also known as Chantix,®. Other patients will receive a placebo drug. A placebo is an inactive substance that contains no medicine. All patients will receive smoking cessation counseling provided by our tobacco treatment specialists. They hope that what the researchers learn from this study will help us improve our smoking cessation treatment program for breast cancer patients.

Effects of Nicotine on Brain Opioid Receptors

Nicotine Dependence

A substantial body of evidence implicates the endogenous opioid system, and the mu opioid receptor (MOR) in particular, in the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse, including nicotine. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the mu opioid receptor gene (OPRM1 Asp40) is associated with the ability to quit smoking, as well as nicotine reward and withdrawal symptoms. However, the precise mechanism through which this SNP influences nicotine dependence remains unresolved. This positron emission tomography (PET) study will examine whether this OPRM1 SNP alters MOR binding in response to nicotine in human smokers. Specifically, we will use [11 C]carfentanil PET imaging to assess the effects of intravenous (IV) nicotine versus saline (within-subject) on MOR binding potential in 24 chronic smokers genotyped prospectively and stratified by OPRM1 genotype.

Effect of the Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Dependent Smoking People

Tobacco Abuse Smoke

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of 10 sessions of anodal transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS - 1 mA) applied to left vs right CDLPF of tobacco-dependent subjects compared to the application of a placebo tDCS (sham procedure) on the craving, which is evaluated by the item 1 of Fagerström test between day 1 and day 10. Craving is also evaluated 1 month post-treatment.

Bipolar Disorder

Background: . Bipolar disorders and tobacco use disorder are top of the causes of disability and mortality worldwide Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) as an adjunctive treatment in patients with bipolar .disorders and tobacco use disorder (TUD) , to determine whether NAC reduces alterations in biomarkers of inflammatory and oxidative stress Methods: This study will be conducted as a double-blind, randomized, placebo controlles add NAC or placebo for .bipolar disorders and tobacco use disorder at Londrina State University, Brazil.

tDCS as Add on Therapy for Treatment of Tobacco Dependence by Standardized Behaviour Therapy

Smoking CessationTobacco Dependence

As an add-on treatment to behavioural therapy for tobacco dependence, anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) significantly increases the cessation rate compared to treatment with sham tDCS; endpoint analysis will be performed 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after completion of the smoke-free programme in combination with tDCS. Craving, assessed with a visual analog scale (VAS), is reduced significantly in the verum treatment group compared to the sham tDCS group. tDCS is suitable for use in larger groups (8-12 people).

e-Cigarettes Versus NRT Gum for Smoking Cessation

Nicotine AddictionSmoking Cessation

This is a randomized trial comparing electronic cigarettes (e-Cigarettes) to nicotine gum for smoking cessation. Participants will be randomly assigned to either e-cigarette use or nicotine gum use during a quit attempt. All participants will have a one hour meeting with a tobacco treatment specialist to develop a quit plan and set a quit date. Quit status will be determined at 12 weeks after the quit date. Continued use of nicotine replacement (either e-Cigarette or nicotine gum) and satisfaction with the treatment assignment will be evaluated.
