Reducing Ethnic Health Disparities: Motivating HIV+ Latinos to Quit Smoking
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Standard Care Intervention (SCI) and Culturally Tailored Intervention (CTI) for Tobacco Dependence and HIV Infections. Completed, enrolled 400 participants across 8 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a brief clinic-based culturally tailored smoking cessation treatment for a largely low-income, Latino, HIV+ population. We will compare this Culturally-Tailored Intervention (CTI) that incorporates a strong social support component and is targeted to the special needs and concerns of a Latino population to a Standard Care Intervention (SCI) control condition, in a randomized controlled trial. We hypothesize that those Latinos receiving the CTI will demonstrate greater biochemically verified smoking abstinence rates at 12-months post-baseline than those receiving the SCI control treatment. All study participants and their participating social supports will be offered use of the nicotine patch.
