NCT02106637

Brief Summary

The hypothesis of this study is that combination of Varenicline treatment with nurse-led hospital support during hospitalization and after discharge will result in clinically significant higher long term abstinence rates in smokers with ACS, as compared with nurse led support and placebo, without a significant increase in the risk of adverse events.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Primary efficacy and Safety endpoint:

    Continuous abstinence rate (CAR) from smoking 1-year after hospitalization as determined by self-reporting and verified by CO testing. Only the combination of the two will be considered as achieving CAR . Non inferior serious adverse event (SAE) rate, defined as: event rate in the intervention group compared to the placebo (SAE according to the FDA definitions) group at 12 months. An interim analysis will be preformed after 33% and 66% of patients have been finished the follow-up duration.

    within 12 month from enrollment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Secondary Outcomes - Weight change

    Within 12 month from enrollmen

  • Smoking abstinence at 1 and 6 months

    1 and 6 months after randomization
