About this study

The overarching goal of the proposed study is to provide information which can lead to effective implementation of cessation support in the care of smokers diagnosed with lung or head \& neck cancer.

To achieve these aims, the study propose to conduct a longitudinal cohort study of patients diagnosed with lung or head \& neck cancer at the Hospices Civils de Lyon (SMALLHAN). Briefly, adult patients newly diagnosed with lung or head \& neck cancer will be recruited at the time of diagnosis (announcement of diagnosis and consultation).

What participants receive

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

  • questionnaireOther

    Also called Tabacco and alcohol questionnaires

    A trained interviewer (Clinical Research Associate : CRA) will administer a questionnaire soon after the diagnosis on the phone (within 15 calendar days after diagnosis). The participants are followed up during the first year following the diagnosis through 3 follow-up assessments (at 3, 6, and 12 months after the baseline assessment) and hospital record reviews. At each follow-up, a brief questionnaire will be administered by an interviewer (CRA) via telephone.
