Assessing the Integration of Tobacco Cessation Treatment Into Lung Cancer Screening (LCS)
This randomized controlled trial seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative strategies to integrate smoking cessation interventions into the delivery of low-dose CT (LDCT) lung cancer screening. Using a factorial design, current smokers who enroll will be randomly assigned to receive these interventions: (1) smoking cessation counseling support by telephone or videoconferencing (short duration vs. long duration); (2) nicotine patch treatment (NRT) (short vs.long duration); (3) counselor-facilitated referral (vs. no referral) to an online resource to connect smokers to a community-based social service resources.
