Official title
123I-5-IA SPECT Imaging of Nicotinic Receptors and Effects of Nicotine Vaccine
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
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.
