My Path to Quit Tobacco

Comparing Three Multicomponent Interventions to Help Adults Quit Smoking

Sponsor

University of Wisconsin, Madison

Enrollment

1,550 participants

Start Date

Jul 1, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Smoking Cessation

Summary

The overarching goal of this program of research is to reduce smoking-related health disparities by increasing smoking cessation among Black adults. The goal of this research proposal is to determine whether more intensive, culturally specific, evidence-based interventions are more effective at promoting long-term cessation and other key patient-centered outcomes compared to the usual evidence-based standard of care: services provided by a state-run quitline. This study compares the relative effectiveness of three different treatments (Standard, Intensive, and Intensive Incentivized) on long-term smoking cessation (biochemically confirmed abstinence from combusted tobacco at 26-weeks post-target quit day) among Black adults who smoke and want to quit.
