Varenicline or Nicotine Patch and Nicotine Gum in Helping Smokers in a Methadone Treatment Program Stop Smoking

2 de mayo de 2018 actualizado por: Michael Stein, MD, Butler Hospital

Varenicline Versus Nicotine Replacement for Methadone-Maintained Smokers

RATIONALE: Varenicline, the nicotine patch, and nicotine gum help people stop smoking. It is not yet known whether varenicline is more effective than the nicotine patch given together with nicotine gum in helping smokers quit smoking.

PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying varenicline to see how well it works compared with the nicotine patch given together with nicotine gum in helping smokers in a methadone treatment program stop smoking.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine whether varenicline, a nicotine receptor partial agonist, leads to a higher rate of smoking cessation than combination nicotine replacement therapy with nicotine patch prescription plus ad libitum nicotine gum delivery in methadone-maintained smokers.

Secondary

  • To test the effects of the treatments on smoking urges, withdrawal symptoms, and reinforcing effects of smoking.
  • To test the effects of the treatments on methadone treatment outcomes, including retention in methadone maintenance, methadone dose changes, and continued use of illicit drugs as measured by urine toxicologies.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified based on gender and level of nicotine dependence. Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 intervention arms.

At baseline, all patients receive a minimal behavioral intervention using a 3-minute, simple smoking cessation counseling strategy, a self-help manual, and a telephone quit-line number.

  • Arm I (varenicline): Patients receive oral varenicline once daily on days 1-3 and twice daily thereafter for a total of 6 months or when a comfortable level of smoking abstinence is reached.
  • Arm II (placebo): Patients receive oral varenicline placebo once daily on days 1-3 and twice daily thereafter for a total of 6 months or when a comfortable level of smoking abstinence is reached.
  • Arm III (nicotine patch/gum): Patients receive a nicotine patch, with doses tapering over time for a total of 26 weeks. Patients also receive nicotine gum to quell breakthrough urges. Patients may stop treatment when a comfortable level of smoking abstinence is reached.

Patients complete a brief interview over 10-15 minutes at 2 weeks and monthly during months 1-5. They complete a longer interview over 45 minutes at months 6 and 12 and provide breath samples (for carbon monoxide monitoring) and urine samples (for cotinine testing).

NOTE: Smoking cessation may prevent certain smoking-related illnesses, including cancer.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 602 patients (258 receiving varenicline, 258 receiving nicotine replacement therapy, and 86 receiving placebo) will be accrued for this study.

Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change in Smoking Urges
Periodo de tiempo: 6 months
Smoking urges was measured on a 0 (not at all) - 100 (strongest feeling possible) scale. Higher values represent greater urge to smoke. Change in smoking urges was calculated as Follow-up score (6 month) - Baseline Score.
6 months
Withdrawal Symptoms
Periodo de tiempo: 6 months
Withdrawal Symptoms were measured using a modified version of the Minnesota Behavior Rating Scale. The scale asked subjects to rate their smoking withdrawal symptoms over the previous 24 hours on a scale from 0 (none) to 4 (severe). Higher values indicate more severe withdrawal symptoms. Change in withdrawal symptoms was calculated as Follow-up score (6 month) - Baseline Score.
6 months

Methadone Dose Changes
Periodo de tiempo: 12 months

Use of Illicit Drugs as Measured by Urine Toxicologies
Periodo de tiempo: 12 months

Reinforcing Effects of Smoking
Periodo de tiempo: 6 months
Reinforcing effects of smoking was measured using the modified version of the Cigarette Evaluation Questionnaire. Participants were asked to indicate on a 12-item scale how smoking made them feel in the prior 30 days on a scale from 1 (Not at all) to 7 (Extremely). Higher values indicated that smoking was a more positive experience for 10 of 12 items. Two items were reverse coded. Change in reinforcing effects of smoking was calculated as Follow-up score (6 month) - Baseline Score.
