Feasibility of precision smoking treatment in a low-income community setting: results of a pilot randomized controlled trial in The Southern Community Cohort Study

CONCLUSIONS: Genetically informed precision smoking cessation interventions are feasible in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities, exhibiting high enrollment, engagement, and retention irrespective of race, sex, income, education, or attitudes toward precision smoking treatment. Future smoking cessation interventions in this population should take steps to engage older people and to sustain participation in interventions that include genetic risk counseling.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov No. NCT03521141, Registered 27 April 2018, https://www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov/study/NCT03521141.PMID:38491559 | PMC:PMC10941447 | DOI:10.1186/s13722-024-00441-1
