Primary outcomes

Changes From Baseline Smoking Behavior at 1,2,3,4,5,6 Months

Time frame: baseline, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 4-month, 5-month, 6-month

Self-reported smoking during the last 30 days was a dichotomous variable.

Secondary outcomes

Changes From Baseline Quality of Life at 1,2,3,4,5,6 Months

Time frame: baseline, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 4-month, 5-month, 6-month

Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung, Version 4 (FACT-L v. 4) was a 36-item ordinal scale, five-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). There were 5 domains: Physical, social/family, emotional, and functional well-being; lung cancer subscale (symptoms, cognitive function, regret of smoking). Subscale scores added to obtain total score, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Proportion of participants with Overall Survival up to 2 years

Time frame: follow up to one or two years
