Wisconsin Smoking Withdrawal Scale

Submitted by administrator on
Abbreviation
WSWS
Description

This 28-item scale was developed to contain reliable subscales tapping the major symptom elements of the nicotine withdrawal syndrome. It uses seven internally consistent subscales: anger, anxiety, sadness, concentration, sleep, hunger, and craving. Respondents rate each statement on a scale ranging from 0 (strong disagree) to 4 (strongly agree). The WSWS is sensitive to smoking withdrawal and predictive of smoking cessation outcomes, and its brevity makes it useful in both the clinical and research context.

Title
Phase 2, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial Of Selegiline Transdermal System (STS) As An Aid For Smoking Cessation
Short Description
The objectives of this study are to determine the efficacy and safety of selegiline transdermal system (STS) and brief behavioral intervention for smoking cessation in heavy smokers.
Release Date
May 07, 2018
Description

Determine the efficacy of STS with brief behavioral therapy (the investigational intervention) for smoking cessation in heavy smokers. It is hypothesized that the quit rate at the end of treatment for subjects who receive STS with behavioral intervention will be greater than the quit rate for subjects in the placebo patch control group with behavioral intervention.  Determine the safety of the investigational intervention for smoking cessation in heavy smokers as assessed by adverse events, weight gain/loss, vital signs, ECG, and clinical laboratory assessments.

Title
Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Multi-Center Trial Of Baclofen For The Treatment Of Cocaine Dependence
Short Description
To assess the efficacy and safety of baclofen in reducing cocaine use in subjects with cocaine dependence. It is hypothesized that baclofen treatment, compared to placebo, will be associated with fewer days of cocaine use as assessed by self-report confirmed with urine assays for benzoylecgonine (BE).
Release Date
May 07, 2018
Description

The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of baclofen in reducing cocaine use in subjects with cocaine dependence (DSM-IV criteria). The hypothesis is that baclofen will reduce cocaine use over the treatment period as compared to placebo as determined by selfreport confirmed with urine assays for BE.

Description

The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is the assessment of the efficacy of STS in reducing cocaine use in subjects with cocaine dependence (DSM-IV criteria). The hypothesis is that STS will reduce the weekly mean proportion of cocaine non-use days relative to placebo as determined by self report of use confirmed with urine assays for BE.  Secondary objectives include assessing the reduction in the overall proportion of non-use days and the proportion of subjects that achieve measured reductions in cocaine and other drugs use, the reduction in the severity of cocaine dependence and craving, and severity of depression (HAM-D), and the safety of STS in the study population.
