      Abstract:
      Lung cancer screening with computed tomography has demonstrated a significant reduction in mortality (1) leading to the recommendation for annual low-dose CT (LDCT) screening for lung cancer for adults between 55 and 80 years old who are at high risk for lung cancer because of their age and extensive smoking history. In addition to lung cancer screening having public health benefit for early detection of lung cancer, lung cancer screening programs may also represent a “teachable moment” for reaching smokers and promoting cessation through the delivery of evidence-based tobacco cessation treatment (2). Since the advent of lung cancer screening programs, there has been much interest in the impact of lung cancer screening on smoking behaviors. Ostroff and colleagues (3) first published the observation that 25% of current smokers seeking lung cancer screening reported smoking cessation one-year following enrollment in a lung cancer screening program Since then, several observational studies have reported cessation rates ranging from 6.6% to 42% following enrollment in lung cancer screening programs (4-11). However, a more recent systematic review of clinical trials and cohort studies examining smoking behaviors among individuals undergoing LDCT for lung cancer screening concluded that lung cancer screening per se does not change smoking behaviors leading to the conclusion that further research is needed to develop and evaluate cost-effective models for delivery of tobacco treatment in lung cancer screening protocols (12). A recent survey of lung cancer screening sites examined the organizational priority, practice patterns and perceived barriers associated with tobacco treatment (13). To facilitate the integration of tobacco treatment within lung cancer screening programs, a greater understanding of the barriers associated with implementation is needed. Thus, the presentation objectives are to: 1) Establish the rationale for integration of tobacco dependence treatment in lung cancer screening programs; 2) Examine patterns and predictors of smoking cessation among lung cancer screening program enrollees; 3) Examine current organizational priority, practice patterns and perceived barriers associated with tobacco treatment delivery; 4) Review opportunities and challenges of integrating tobacco dependence in lung cancer screening protocols. This presentation will provide a blueprint for developing and implementing evidence-based tobacco treatment services within the context of lung cancer screening program. 1.
