研究概览
简要总结
This study will compare the long-term use of bupropion (Wellbutrin) and placebo for reducing the rate of smoking relapse in recovering alcoholics who achieved initial abstinence from smoking with nicotine patch therapy. The study will also determine the cessation rate in the 8th week of treatment among recovering alcoholics using a nicotine patch. The patch dose is projected to serve as a 100-percent replacement.
详细描述
The purpose of this trial was to recruit 292 recovering alcoholic smokers (abstinent from alcohol for a minimum of 1 year), who want to stop smoking and provide them with 100% nicotine replacement. The 100% nicotine replacement will be undertaken using a nicotine patch. By measuring their nicotine levels at study entry we can determine the patch dosing needed. The patch dosing will vary from 22 mg to 44 mg. Those who are able to achieve tobacco abstinence by week 8 will enter a relapse prevention phase for the remaining 44 weeks. In this phase, they will be randomized to active or placebo bupropion (300 mg/day). After 44 weeks of the relapse prevention trial (at week 52 of study participation), they will enter a post medication follow up for 6 months.

结局指标
主要结局
Will bupropion reduce relapse to smoking compared to placebo
时间窗: 52 weeks and 76 weeks
Determine if long-term use of bupropion will reduce the rate of relapse to smoking compared to placebo in recovering alcoholics who achieved initial abstinence from smoking with nicotine patch therapy projected to achieve 100% replacement.
次要结局
- Does matching the dose of nicotine patches to nicotine levels help increase smoking abstinence(8 weeks)
