About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine how people react to different combinations of alcohol and nicotine.

Read the detailed description

The present project will improve and expand upon previously published work in several ways. First, Study 1 will assess reactivity to alcohol and smoking cues in the same session. Second, both studies will include within-subjects design factors to manipulate alcohol and nicotine intake, as well as cue types. Third, craving indices will represent three important response domains: subjective, physiological, and behavioral (e.g., Niaura et al., 1991). Fourth, each study will evaluate a range of drinkers and smokers, which will provide maximal information concerning influences on alcohol and smoking cue reactivity across various subject populations. The proposed studies are not only important from a theory development perspective, but they will provide an excellent foundation for future laboratory-based and clinical research.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Psychophysiological Reactivity Assessment

    To assess cravings and psychophysiological reactivity elicited by alcohol, smoking, and neutral cues following acute intake of alcohol and nicotine among individuals across a broad range of alcohol and cigarette use patterns (Study 1).

    Measured: approximately 5 weeks per participant

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Alcohol Self-administration Assessment

    To assess alcohol self-administration upon exposure to alcohol or smoking-related cues following acute intake of alcohol, nicotine, or both drugs among individuals across a broad range of alcohol and cigarette use patterns (Study 2).

    Measured: approximately 5 weeks per participant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tobacco and Alcoholic Beverage in people with Nicotine Dependence, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Psychophysiological Reactivity Assessment (time frame: approximately 5 weeks per participant). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Sep 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
