Summary

This study compares a new smartphone app called IndigeQuit to an existing app (NCI QuitGuide) to help American Indian and Alaska Native adults quit smoking. About 776 participants who smoke daily and want to quit within 30 days will be randomly assigned to use one of the apps. The goal is to see if IndigeQuit, designed with cultural relevance, leads to more people quitting smoking for at least 30 days.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: IndigeQuit smartphone app (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide an effective, culturally tailored smoking cessation tool for American Indian and Alaska Native communities, reducing smoking-related cancers.
What could go wrong: This is a behavioral intervention trial, not a drug or cure. Success depends on user engagement and self-reporting, and results may not generalize to all AI/AN populations.
