Study Summary

This pilot randomized trial will assess the impact of 12 weeks of semaglutide administration (vs placebo) on changes in: (i) tobacco use and related factors (nicotine craving, withdrawal, motivation to quit, etc.) and (ii) biological biomarkers of health (e.g., epigenetics, glucose variability via continuous glucose monitoring \[CGM\], etc.) in adult smokers with obesity (n = 40). We will integrate molecular biology procedures (e.g., epigenetics) to maximize internal validity with real-world smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) surveys to maximize external validity
