National Institute of Drug Abuse R01 DA031815 – Understanding Disparities in Quitting in African American and White Smokers
Principal Investigator – Nicole Nollen, PhD
By conducting a head-to-head AA-White pharmacotherapy study, the objective of this application is to examine varenicline for smoking cessation among AA and White smokers, and to better understand racial differences in quitting. We will conduct a prospective cohort intervention study, stratified on race, age (< 40, > 40), and gender, in which 448 participants (224 AA, 224 White) will receive 3 months of varenicline. The central hypothesis is that AAs will demonstrate lower 7-day abstinence from smoking at month 6 than Whites. We will also examine smoking, psychosocial, treatment process, and biological mechanisms underlying racial differences in quitting.
