N2 - Cigarette smoking is a leading cause of mortality in people with HIV (PWH) in the United States (US). A rising proportion of US tobacco users smoke non-daily, a phenomenon that is common among PWH. PWH who smoke non-daily may be attractive targets for cessation efforts, and, thus, a fuller understanding of non-daily smoking in PWH is important. We merged datasets from two randomized controlled tobacco treatment trials for PWH conducted in three cities from 2014-2020. The final dataset included 872 PWH. We analyzed sociodemographic characteristics and behavioral measures, such as nicotine dependence, motivation to quit, anxiety, and other substance use for associations with non-daily smoking, and we assessed non-daily smoking as a predictor of cessation. 13.4% of the sample smoked non-daily. In multivariable analyses, non-White race, higher anxiety, and higher motivation to quit were associated with non-daily smoking. PWH who smoked non-daily had 2.14 times the odds of those who smoked daily of quitting at six-months (95% C.I.:1.30-3.51, P=0.002). PWH who smoke non-daily differ in some demographic and behavioral characteristics from those who smoke daily. PWH reporting non-daily smoking were more likely to quit in our trials and targeting them should be a priority of future cessation efforts.
