Testing the Integrated mHealth App Intervention "SiS-H"
Pilot RCT to Test the Integrated mHealth App Intervention (SiS-H) for Smoking Cessation for People With HIV
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Jun 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The present study is a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) that seeks to test the feasibility, acceptability, process outcomes, and exploratory outcomes of a newly integrated, app-based smoking cessation treatment (SiS-H, which stands for "Smiling instead of Smoking for people with HIV") for people with HIV who smoke. This treatment will be compared to onboarding to the National Cancer Institute's smartphone app "QuitGuide" (QG). Persons with HIV who smoke and are engaged in HIV clinical care (n=64) will be randomized (1:1) to smoking cessation support via SiS-H vs. "QuitGuide".
