Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

Researchers test whether adding one structured cognitive behavioral therapy session to standard brief quit-smoking advice helps cancer patients stop smoking. The trial enrolls 446 adults with cancer in Vietnam who smoked at diagnosis and still smoke. Everyone gets brief counseling, and half also receive a longer CBT-based session. The main goal is to see who reports not smoking at all in the week before a three-month check-in.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a single structured cognitive behavioral therapy session for smoking cessation, added to brief quit-smoking counseling
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a low-cost way to help cancer patients quit smoking, which may improve their treatment outcomes and quality of life.
What could go wrong
The trial relies on self-reported smoking, with no biochemical checks, so some people may not report accurately. A single counseling session may not be enough to help people quit, especially during cancer treatment.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 446 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Oct 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Jul 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

An individual researcher

The lead sponsor is a named person rather than an organisation.
