Bupropion and Counseling With or Without Contingency Management to Enhance Smoking Cessation in Treating Cancer Survivors Who Continue to Smoke

Summary

RATIONALE: Contingency management is a behavioral treatment approach that provides immediate rewards for positive change in behavior such as quitting smoking. In this protocol, contingency management will be in the form of a cash reward. A smoking cessation (stop-smoking) program that combines contingency management with bupropion and counseling may be effective in helping cancer survivors stop smoking.
