简要总结
Data suggest that progesterone may improve smoking cessation outcomes perhaps by reducing impulsive behavior. However, the clinical literature on this topic is lacking. Therefore, in Project I we are proposing a double-blind randomized controlled trial to assess the role of exogenous progesterone on impulsivity and smoking cessation in a sample of males and females who are motivated to quit smoking.
详细描述
Subjects will be stratified by sex and then randomly assigned to active progesterone (PRO) or placebo (PBO).
Telephone screening and visit invitation leads to the consent process and in-person screening including medical-psychiatric evaluation for inclusion/exclusion, then randomization and medication induction, stable medication with medication reduction and final evaluation for secondary outcomes.
