Brief summary

Male and female smokers were recruited to undergo 2 phases of smoking cessation. Each phase was 4 days long and involved 3 brain-imaging scans, blood draws and an intervention involving progesterone or a matched placebo.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to learn whether a sex hormone called progesterone is helpful in reducing cigarette smoking and craving for cigarettes. This study also includes brain imaging to measure possible effects of progesterone on certain neurochemicals. These neurochemicals are called gamma-aminobutyric acid (or GABA for short) and glutamate. Both nicotine and progesterone affect these brain chemicals. Individuals wishing to participate in this study must be medically healthy men or women who smoke at least 10 cigarettes per day or greater. Participants must not suffer from a mental illness or use drugs other than nicotine and marijuana. Participants cannot have any implanted metallic devices such as pacemakers, orthodontic braces, or shrapnel. Participants must not have peanut allergies and must never have had a reaction to progesterone. Finally, participants cannot be taking any medications for anxiety, depression or insomnia.

Interventions

DRUGProgesterone

Participants will consume four pills of Progesterone over a period of four days. Participants will be asked to remain abstinent from smoking while taking Progesterone.

DRUGPlacebo

Participants will consume four pills of Placebo over a period of four days. Participants will be asked to remain abstinent from smoking while taking Placebo.

MeasureTime frameDescription
GABA Pre and Post Progesterone Administration (Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex [DACC])Test Day #2 and Test Day #5 - 6 total scans over the period of 2-3 months.GABA concentrations (collected in the Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex \[DACC\]) will be obtained using the non-invasive neuroimaging method of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) both before and after placebo administration and smoking abstinence. In total subjects will undergo 6 1H-MRS scans. The 6 1H-MRS scans take place over a period of approximately 1-2 months. Each paradigm (placebo/progesterone) takes approximately one week, with an approximately two-week wash in between paradigms for men and an approximately 1-month wash in between paradigms for women. The subject will undergo a smoking session on Test Day #1 and Test Day #5, MRS scans are conducted on Test Day #2 (2 scans) and Test Day #5 (1 scan). Minimal data is available for the primary outcome due to substantial issues with the 7T scanner. All subsequent scans were conducted on a 3T scanner which does not have the capacity to collect data on GABA.

Pre-assignment details

There were 81 participants who were enrolled in the study, but N = 15 were lost to early follow-up before they could be randomized. Therefore, only N = 66 participants were randomized (N = 34 randomized to receive placebo first, N = 32 randomized to receive progesterone first).

Outcome results

Primary

GABA Pre and Post Progesterone Administration (Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex [DACC])

GABA concentrations (collected in the Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex \[DACC\]) will be obtained using the non-invasive neuroimaging method of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) both before and after placebo administration and smoking abstinence. In total subjects will undergo 6 1H-MRS scans. The 6 1H-MRS scans take place over a period of approximately 1-2 months. Each paradigm (placebo/progesterone) takes approximately one week, with an approximately two-week wash in between paradigms for men and an approximately 1-month wash in between paradigms for women. The subject will undergo a smoking session on Test Day #1 and Test Day #5, MRS scans are conducted on Test Day #2 (2 scans) and Test Day #5 (1 scan). Minimal data is available for the primary outcome due to substantial issues with the 7T scanner. All subsequent scans were conducted on a 3T scanner which does not have the capacity to collect data on GABA.

Time frame: Test Day #2 and Test Day #5 - 6 total scans over the period of 2-3 months.

Population: Some values were missing due to visits for these individuals scheduled after there were issues with the 7T scanner, so data could not be collected for other participants.
