简要总结
The goal of this clinical research study is learn if varenicline or the nicotine patch can help people with different types of emotion and attention levels to quit smoking.
详细描述
Study Groups:
If you agree to take part in this study, you will be randomly assigned (as in the roll of a dice) to 1 of 2 study groups. This is done because no one knows if one study group is better, the same, or worse than the other group. You will have an equal chance of being assigned to Group 1 or 2.
- If you are in Group 1, you will receive varenicline and a placebo patch. A placebo is not a drug. It looks like the study drug but is not designed to treat any disease or illness. It is designed to be compared with a study drug to learn if the study drug has any real effect.
- If you are in Group 2, you will receive an active nicotine patch and a placebo tablet.
Neither you nor the study doctor will know which group you are assigned to. However, if needed for your safety, the study staff will be able to find out what you are receiving (called "unblinding").
Once the study has ended and the Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) at MD Anderson has granted approval, you may be unblinded at your request.
