What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quit Rate
Time Frame: Study weeks 6 through 9
The number of subjects in each treatment group who ceased smoking as measured by four weeks of self-reported abstinence confirmed by at least two exhales - carbon monoxide (CO) measurements during the last four weeks of treatment (study weeks 6 through 9).
Study weeks 6 through 9

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Abstinence
Time Frame: week 14
The proportion is determined by dividing the number who achieved abstinence at the end of treatment as defined for the primary outcome measure and are still abstinent by self report and separately by self report with confirmation by exhaled CO by the total number randomized to the treatment group.
