About this study

The ASAP Trial is a 5-year, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial that will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of aggressive smoking cessation therapy among people at elevated cardiovascular risk. It will recruit 798 adult patients smoking on average at least 10 conventional (tobacco) cigarettes per day who are motivated to quit smoking and have either been diagnosed with ACS requiring hospitalization or are outpatients at elevated cardiovascular risk. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to one of two treatment arms: (1) combination therapy of varenicline and nicotine e-cigarettes plus counseling or (2) varenicline plus counseling for 12 weeks, with 52-week follow-up.
