Official title

Understanding the Role of Cognitive Dysfunction in the Treatment of Nicotine Dependence Among HIV-infected Smokers

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This study tests whether withdrawal-related cognitive deficits increase smoking relapse among HIV-infected (HIV+) vs. HIV-uninfected smokers (HIV-). Adult smokers (N=300; 150 HIV+, 150 HIV-) will complete 2 sessions to assess cognition (24h abstinence vs. smoking-as-usual; order counterbalanced; weeks 0-2). Subjects will then receive smoking cessation counseling and open label transdermal nicotine (weeks 3-12). Outcomes are: 1) cognition; and 2) abstinence rates at the end-of-treatment.
