Nicotine Vaccination and Nicotinic Receptor Occupancy
123I-5-IA SPECT Imaging of Nicotinic Receptors and Effects of Nicotine Vaccine
This is a molecular imaging research study designed to examine how much nicotine gets into the brain before and after vaccination with NicVAX, a nicotine vaccine developed by Nabi Biopharmaceuticals. NicVAX (Nicotine Conjugate Vaccine) is an investigational vaccine designed as an aid to smoking cessation and long-term abstinence, as well as an aid to prevent relapses of a treated smoker.
In this project we want to understand the degree to which NicVAX administration changes how much nicotine enters the brain in smokers.

Mean of the Average Nicotine Binding % at Scan 1 and Scan 2
Time Frame: 3 months

nAchR levels from baseline and after immunization with 3'-AmNic-rEPA (NicVAX=vaccine) SPECT images obtained in healthy control smoking subjects at baseline and after immunization with 3'-AmNic-rEPA (NicVAX=vaccine).
nAchR levels will be determined by radioligand uptake in SPECT images.
Means were calculated for all subjects at scan 1 and scan 2.
