Memantine Hydrochloride in Helping Cancer Survivors Stop Smoking

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

    Smoking Withdrawal
    endpoint definition
    The Wisconsin Smoking Withdrawal Scale is a 28 item questionnaire that assesses nicotine withdrawal. It consists of seven subscales, each consisting of 3-5 questions all answered on a 0-4 scale. Subscale scores are the mean of the items comprising the scale. Some items are reverse scored. Higher scores indicate greater withdrawal symptoms. Subscales were scored if more than half the items were answered. A total score was calculated as the mean of the individual subscales (if more than half the subscales had scores).
