Support Person Intervention to Promote a Smoking Helpline Among Under Resourced Smokers

December 9, 2019 updated by: Christi Patten, Mayo Clinic

Pilot Study Phase - Nonsmoker Interventions to Increase Use of Quitline Services Among Racially Diverse Low Income Smokers

This pilot study is being done to adapt an effective 1 session phone coaching intervention for nonsmoking support persons to a low income population. This study will also pilot new intervention components including text messaging and health incentives. The goal of the intervention is for support persons to prompt their smoker to use quitline services. To see if these methods are effective, smokers in this study will be asked to complete assessments about their quit attempts and smoking status. The study will also evaluate if the smokers use quitline services or not. The preliminary findings will be used to provide data for an R01 NIH grant submission.

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.

Detailed Description

This is a proposal to conduct a pilot study to adapt an effective 1 session phone coaching intervention for nonsmoking support persons to a low income population. The study will also pilot new intervention components including text messaging and health incentives. The goal of the intervention is for support persons to prompt their smoker to use quitline services. The study will also build on prior work by enrolling smokers for assessments of quit attempts and smoking abstinence. The study uses a non-randomized, single group design. Thirty nonsmoker-smoker dyads will be enrolled in three waves of 10 each. The nonsmokers will receive different intervention components depending on the time of their enrollment. Nonsmokers will complete assessments at baseline and at 1 month follow-up. Smokers will be enrolled for assessments only at baseline and 3 month follow-up. The vendor for the Minnesota state quitline, Alere Wellbeing Inc. (a sole subsidiary of Optum) will track if smokers use quitline services over 3 months of follow-up. The aims of this pilot study are to: (1) Assess the feasibility of enrolling low income, racially diverse nonsmoker-smoker dyads; (2) Adapt and refine the support person intervention components to a low income population with feedback from the nonsmoker participants; and (3) Assess the feasibility of obtaining assessments from the smokers on quit attempts and smoking abstinence outcomes. The preliminary findings will be used to provide data for an R01 NIH grant submission.

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
