Study Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine the feasibility and efficacy of an intervention designed to increase rates of tobacco abstinence for cancer patients before their cancer surgery.

Primary Outcome

Participants will be classified as succeeded or failed in cessation based on a definition of 1 week of abstinence from cigarettes leading up to the day of their surgery based on self-report and confirmed with biochemical verification (CO≤6ppm). For participants who are classified as abstinent, a chi-square will be computed comparing whether treatment with CM is superior to SC in producing a higher probability of abstinence. These data will be used to compute an effect size, Cohen's w, for smokin
