Study name A behavioral smoking cessation intervention for Quitline callers who also use e‐cigarettes
Methods Design: RCT, pilot
Recruitment: Callers to Oklahoma Tobacco Quitline 
Setting: Oklahoma, USA
Participants 96
61% female. Mean age 40.6. Mean cpd 19.2  
48% daily vapers (vs. non‐daily), 85% daily smokers (vs. non‐daily), and smoked 19.2 cigarettes per day on average (SD = 11.3)
Interventions A novel enhanced e‐cigarette coaching (EEC) intervention for individuals who both smoked and vaped at Oklahoma Tobacco Quitline enrolment was compared to standard quitline treatment (control)
Both groups received NRT
All requested and were sent NRT (EEC: 100%)
Both groups received 5 coaching calls 
EEC treatment used a shared decision‐making model for quit plan development and included vaping education, behavioural support, and 2 quit guides for vapers. The EEC treatment goal was smoking abstinence; quitting vaping was not a primary target
Outcomes Treatment engagement and acceptability were primary outcomes in this feasibility pilot. Self‐reported smoking abstinence at 3 months was examined as an underpowered secondary outcome
