Metabolism-Informed Care to Aid Alaska Native People to Quit Smoking (QUIT)
Sponsor: Southcentral Foundation
Summary
The purpose of this study is to refine and pilot an intervention using the Nicotine Metabolite Ratio (NMR) to inform the selection of pharmacologic treatment to increase smoking abstinence among Alaska Native and American Indian people. This is a single-arm pilot trial to assess and improve acceptability and feasibility.

Nicotine Metabolite Ratio
Blood specimens will be drawn, in clinic, by clinical staff trained in blood collection (e.g., certified medical assistant, nurse). Through regular clinic procedures, lab staff will ship for processing to Quest. Quest uses liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry with a limit of detection of 2ng/ml for all analytes and will quantify NMR within 3-6 days of sample arrival. Samples will be consumed during testing. Results of NMR will be returned to primary care providers, and NMR-informed medication recommendations will be made to participants.
