Provoked Craving Relief Study by NRT (NRT)

July 30, 2013 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

A Pilot Study to Evaluate Relief of Provoked Acute Craving by Nicotine Mouth Strip, Nicorette ® Nicotine Lozenge and Gum

This study is designed to assess the ability of the mint nicotine mouth strip to relieve provoked cigarette craving in light smokers compared to nicotine lozenge and nicotine gum.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Smoking Status: Current cigarette smokers who have smoked regularly for at least a year and smoke their first cigarette more than 30 minutes after waking up.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Allergy/Intolerance: Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to nicotine (or closely related compounds) or any of the stated ingredients in formulation.
  • Prior Concomitant Medication: a. Treatment with known enzyme altering agents (e.g. carbamazepine, phenytoin, cimetidine, sodium valporate) within 30 days of the craving provocation visit. b. Use of any prescription psychoactive medication (such as but not limited to antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics) within 14 days of the craving provocation visit. c. Use of any over-the-counter (OTC) medication that affects central nervous system such as antihistamines, sedating agents, or any compound that would have a sedating effect within 24 hours of the craving provocation visit. d. Use of any nicotine replacement therapy or any other treatment for smoking cessation (e.g. bupropion or varenicline) within one month of screening visit. e. Use of any nicotine containing products at any time during the Provocation/Treatment visit. f. Use of any medications noted in the exclusion criteria, or use of any product that would, in the opinion of the investigator, jeopardize the safety of the subject or impact on the validity of the study results.
  • Any disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the absorption, metabolism or excretion of the study product. A medical history that, in the opinion of the investigator, might jeopardise the safety of the subject or the validity of the study results. For example, recent myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident (within 12 weeks of the screening visit), phenylketonuria, unstable or worsening angina pectoris, Prinzmetals angina or severe cardiac arrhythmia.
  • Expired Carbon Monoxide (CO): Any subject whose CO level rises during the sequestration period (i.e., the subject's expired CO assessments immediately prior to the provoked craving paradigm are higher than the mean baseline CO assessment) and, in the opinion of the investigator, may have smoked during that time.
  • Alcohol: Consumption of any alcoholic beverage within 24 hours of the craving provocation visit, as indicated by a positive breath alcohol test.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline in Nicotine Craving Score on a VAS
Time Frame: Baseline, 50 seconds, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes post treatment administration
Participants completed a nicotine craving assessment consisting of following five items: I have a desire for a cigarette right now, if it were possible I would smoke right now, All I want right now is a cigarette, I have an urge for a cigarette, I crave a cigarette right now. All participants indicated their craving intensity on a pre-drawn 100 mm scale ranging from 0 (disagree) to 100 (agree). At the end of the craving assessment period, mean VAS score was measured.
Baseline, 50 seconds, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes post treatment administration

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Log Transformed Area Under the Curve of Nicotine Craving Score (AUC)
Time Frame: Baseline, 50 seconds, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 minutes post treatment administration
AUC between the baseline (pre-dose) and the time of measurement of craving on-treatment was determined.
Baseline, 50 seconds, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 minutes post treatment administration
