研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to measure plasma nicotine uptake parameters, physiological measures, and subjective effect measures in smokers during and following a single ad libitum use of three menthol electronic cigarettes versus combustible menthol cigarettes and nicotine gum.
详细描述
This study will assess various elements that may provide information regarding the potential for menthol electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) to be adopted by current smokers. These various elements include: a) nicotine pharmacokinetics (PK), b) physiological measures of pulse rate and blood pressure, and c) subjective effects measured by Urge to Smoke, Urge for Product, Product Rating, Intent to Use Product Again, and Product Effects.

- •Generally healthy male or female, 21 to 60 years of age, inclusive, at Screening.
- •Expired breath carbon monoxide (ECO) level is ≥ 15 ppm and ≤ 100 ppm at the Screening and Randomization Visits, measured between 12 p.m. and 6 p.m.

- •Smokes at least 10 menthol cigarettes per day (on average) and inhales the smoke, for at least 6 months prior to Screening. Brief periods of abstinence due to illness, quit attempt (prior to 30 days of Screening), or clinical study participation (prior to 30 days of Screening) will be allowed at the discretion of the Investigator.

- •Willing to use UB menthol cigarette, the study electronic cigarette menthol brand styles and nicotine gum during the study period.
- •Willing to abstain from tobacco and nicotine use for at least 12 hours prior to check-in at each Test Visit.
- •Females of childbearing potential must be willing to use a form of contraception acceptable to the Investigator from the time of signing informed consent until study discharge.
排除标准
- •Clinically significant or unstable/uncontrolled acute or chronic medical conditions at Screening, as determined by the Investigator, that would preclude a subject from participating safely in the study (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension, asthma or other lung disease, cardiac disease, neurological disease or psychiatric disorders) based on safety assessments such as clinical laboratory tests, medical history, and physical/oral examinations.
- •Systolic blood pressure of > 150 mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure of > 95 mmHg at Screening, measured after being seated for at least 5 minutes.
- •Hemoglobin level is < 12 g/dL at Screening.
- •Positive test for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B surface antigen, or Hepatitis C virus.
- •Postponing a decision to quit smoking (defined as planning a quit attempt within [≤] 30 days of Screening) to participate in this study or previous attempt within (≤) 30 days prior to Screening.
- •Employed by a tobacco company, the study site, or handles unprocessed tobacco as part of their job.
- •Use of any medication or supplement that aids smoking cessation, including but not limited to any nicotine replacement therapy (e.g., nicotine gum, lozenge, patch), varenicline (Chantix), bupropion (Wellbutrin, Zyban), or lobelia extract within (≤) 30 days of Screening.
- •Females ≥ 35 years of age currently using systemic, estrogen containing contraception or hormone replacement therapy.
- •A positive urine drug screen without disclosure of corresponding prescribed concomitant medication(s), at Screening or Randomization Visit. A positive alcohol result at Screening, Randomization Visit, or at any Test Visit.
- •A female who is pregnant, lactating, or intends to become pregnant during the course of the study.
