NCT ID: NCT04602494

Last Updated: 2024-04-04

Results Overview

Those assigned to varenicline and group behavioral and texting support will have a higher rate of cotinine verified, continuous nicotine vaping abstinence from study week 9 to end of treatment as operationalized by self-report of no nicotine vaping since the last study visit on a timeline followback assessment and urinary cotinine \<50 ng/mL at each study visit in the designated timeframe.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Weeks 9-12

Population: 5 people enrolled in the pilot, 1 was a screen fail, 4 were enrolled and have been included in the analysis. Due to the small number of participants enrolled in the pilot, data is presented as participant count.

Those assigned to varenicline and group behavioral and texting support will have a higher rate of cotinine verified, continuous nicotine vaping abstinence from study week 9 to end of treatment as operationalized by self-report of no nicotine vaping since the last study visit on a timeline followback assessment and urinary cotinine \<50 ng/mL at each study visit in the designated timeframe.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Weeks 9-24

Population: No participant reached 24 weeks in the study, and as such, were not included in the analysis.

Those assigned to varenicline and group behavioral and texting support will have a higher rate of cotinine verified, continuous nicotine vaping abstinence from study week 9 to end of follow-up as operationalized by self-report of no nicotine vaping since the last study visit on a timeline followback assessment and urinary cotinine \<50 ng/ml at each study visit in the designated timeframe.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline-week 24

Those assigned to varenicline will have greater percentage reduction in vaped nicotine product exposure than those assigned to placebo as determined by urine cotinine from baseline to week 24. Cotinine is a byproduct of nicotine that is used to measure exposure to nicotine product exposure. Positive values represent increases and negative values represent decreases.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to Week 16

Population: Participants in the placebo and monitoring group didn't provide post baseline outcome measure data, and therefore were not included in the analysis.

Symptoms will be assessed using the Minnesota Withdrawal Scale (MNWS), a 9-item self-rated scale of nicotine withdrawal symptoms, with scores ranging from 0 - 36, where higher scores indicate a greater degree of withdrawal. The difference between baseline and Week 16 will be computed for each participant.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to week 12

Population: Measure data was not collected from any enrolled participant.

A Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure intensity of nicotine craving. The scale ranged from 0 (no desire at all) to 7 (unable to resist). Higher scores represent more intense nicotine craving.

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to Week12

Population: participants in the monitoring group didn't provide post baseline outcome measure therefore were not included in the analysis.

Severity of nicotine cravings will be assessed using the Questionnaire of Vaping Craving (QVC), a 10-item measure of vaping craving, with scores ranging from 10 - 70, where higher scores indicate greater craving for vaping products. The difference between baseline and Week 12 will be computed for each participant.
