Optimizing Effectiveness of Smoking Cessation Intervention During Low Dose CT Screening for Lung Cancer
The goal of this clinical research study is to offer lung cancer screenings to smokers who
want to change their smoking behaviors. All eligible participants will receive smoking
cessation counseling and may be offered at least one form of smoking cessation drug.
Different forms of counseling (the delivery of counseling and access to counseling) will be
compared.
This is an investigational study. Participants on this study will not be prescribed smoking
drugs directly by the study staff. However, participants in this study may or may not receive
smoking cessation drugs, depending on what the provider thinks is in the participants best
interest. All smoking cessation drugs being used are FDA approved and commercially available.
It is investigational to compare the different forms of counseling participants receive.
Up to 1260 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.

Study Groups:
If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will have a CT scan of your
chest to look for signs of lung cancer. You will receive the results 0-4 days after the scan.
If there are any abnormal areas, you will be referred to your regular doctor for follow-up.
No matter what the results are, you will be advised to quit smoking. If you have previously
had a low dose CT scan for lung cancer screening in the last 30 days, you may still be
eligible to participate in this study. You will be asked to provide documentation of the CT
scan results.
You will receive a referral for counseling to help you reduce/quit smoking. You may also
discuss medications you can take to reduce smoking.
As part of your counseling treatment, you may be prescribed an FDA-approved and commercially
available anti-smoking drug. This may be either nicotine replacement therapy (such as a
patch, gum, or lozenge) or an oral drug (such as varenicline or buproprion). The provider
will tell you when and how much of your anti-smoking drug you should take each time, based on
a discussion between you and your provider. Receiving anti-smoking medication will be done
through your counseling treatment and not as part of your participation in this study.
You will have at least 5, but no more than 8, smoking cessation counseling sessions over the
next 12 weeks. Each session will last between 30 - 60 minutes, in which you will set a quit
date, prepare for your quit date, and discuss coping skills for dealing with smoking
"triggers" after your quit date. You will also discuss challenges you may have with quitting.
Study Visits:
You will have 3 additional study visits, at around 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months after the
screening visit, as well as 1 follow-up phone call. At all study visits:
- You will complete questionnaires about several topics, including depression, suicide,
and your smoking behavior. These questionnaires should take about 30-45 minutes in total
to complete.
- Your CO level will be measured.
- Urine and/or saliva may be collected (at 12 weeks and 6 months only) for a routine test
to check your cotinine and nicotine. Cotinine is a chemical released in your body when
it breaks down nicotine and will show whether and how much you have recently smoked.
Follow-Up:
About 5 months after you start receiving counseling sessions, you will be called by a member
of the study staff and asked about your recent smoking behaviors and habits. This call should
last about 5-10 minutes.
