Efficacy of Tobacco Quitline for Cancer Survivors
In this study participants (n=1242) will be randomly assigned to a Counselor-Initiated
Tobacco Quit Line (QL;) in which the counselor contacts the client with the standardized
intervention protocol, or a Self-Paced Tobacco QL (which leaves the calling up to
participants).The proposed active intervention will be a the Counselor-Initiated QL which
includes 8 weeks of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and six scheduled telephone sessions
of a behavioral intervention. The comparison condition will be the Self-Paced QL with
provision of 2 weeks of NRT and encouraged obtainment of additional NRT. If participants in
the Self-Paced condition make all six calls, they will receive the same behavioral
intervention as in the Counselor-Initiated condition.
