About this study

Official title: Web and Mobile Smoking Cessation Interventions

This study seeks to develop and then perform a controlled efficacy Randomized Controlled Trial assessing tobacco abstinence of a best-practices Web-based PC-delivered smoking cessation intervention (QuitOnline) compared to a Mobile Smartphone-delivered intervention (MobileQuit). Study participants are randomized to one of two conditions: a Web Only intervention and the Web+Mobile intervention. The hypothesis is that the Web+Mobile approach will yield greater efficacy than the Web Only condition.

Read the detailed description

The primary aims of this project are to:

  1. Use an iterative formative development process to create two separate Web-based smoking cessation programs (Web+Mobile, Web Only).
  2. Compare the efficacy of the two smoking cessation programs in terms of tobacco abstinence. The investigators hypothesize that the Web+Mobile condition will be significantly more efficacious in terms of tobacco abstinence than the Web Only condition.
  3. Evaluate program usage/participant engagement, treatment acceptability, and consumer satisfaction. The investigators hypothesize that both conditions will be acceptable and that the Web+Mobile condition will have significantly greater usage and higher consumer satisfaction than the Web Only condition.

The secondary aims of this proposal are to:

  1. Evaluate the differences between conditions on ancillary tobacco outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that the participants assigned to the Web+Mobile condition who continue to smoke will nonetheless report a greater decline in the smoking rate and more quit attempts.
  2. Evaluate predictors and condition moderators of tobacco abstinence. The investigators will conduct exploratory analyses of the association of treatment outcomes to participant characteristics (e.g., baseline smoking rate, nicotine dependence level, partner's tobacco use, prior quitting attempts, prior use of pharmacological adjuncts, and other demographic factors).
  3. Evaluate putative mechanisms of change. The investigators will test whether change in the putative mechanisms of change (i.e., self-efficacy, program use, use of pharmacological adjuncts) mediate the association between the intervention condition and 3-month sustained abstinence from the 3 month to 6 month assessments.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Web+MobileBehavioural

    We propose to evaluate the efficacy and acceptability of a Web+Mobile tobacco cessation intervention in a 2-arm Randomized Controlled Trial with 1,271 adult study participants who agree to quit smoking within a pre-specified amount of time. Participants who meet eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to either (a) an enhanced Web Only intervention or (b) an enhanced Web+Mobile intervention.

  • Web OnlyBehavioural

    A Web-based PC-delivered best practices smoking cessation intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in all-tobacco abstinence from enrollment to 3 months and 6 months post enrollment

    Change in all-tobacco abstinence from enrollment to 3 and 6 months. Measured using 7 day point prevalence.

    Measured: Change from enrollment to 3 months and 6 months post enrollment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Program usage, treatment acceptability, consumer satisfaction 3 months post enrollment follow-up

    Evaluate program usage of each condition using unobtrusive measures of website visits (both conditions: number, duration, webpages viewed, interactive activities used), use of mobile intervention components (Web+Mobile condition only: number of calls received, number of responses received, extent of data collected), treatment acceptability, and consumer satisfaction

    Measured: 3 months post enrollment

  2. Predictors and condition moderators of tobacco abstinence at 6-months follow-up

    Analyses of the association of primary outcomes to participant characteristics (e.g., baseline smoking rate, nicotine dependence level, partner's tobacco use, prior quitting attempts, prior use of pharmacological adjuncts, and other demographic factors).

    Measured: Baseline to 6-month follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Web+Mobile and Web Only in people with Smoking, run by Oregon 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 8 inclusion and 0 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 12 Feb 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. 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?

Change in all-tobacco abstinence from enrollment to 3 months and 6 months post enrollment (time frame: Change from enrollment to 3 months and 6 months post enrollment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01952236, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Feb 2019.
