研究概览
简要总结
This study will assess environmental emissions of selected compounds in a test chamber after cigarette smoking or e-cigarette vaping.
详细描述
Secondhand smoke is the aged and diluted combination of smoke exhaled by a smoker and sidestream smoke (smoke from the lit end of a cigarette). Electronic cigarettes are different from tobacco-burning cigarettes in that they produce vapor, not smoke. For consistency with common usage, secondhand smoke (SHS) refers to true secondhand smoke from cigarettes and secondhand vapor from e-cigarettes.
The goals of this study are to 1) increase understanding of the composition of SHS from e-cigarettes, 2) quantitatively compare the amount of SHS generated by e-cigarettes and a market sample of commercial e-cigarettes to leading brand styles of commercial tobacco-burning cigarettes, and 3) quantitate the emission factors of e-cigarettes including the market-sample e-cigarettes.

- •Cohort 4 - Electronic cigarette #2 smokers:
- •self-reports at the Screening Visit smoking a non-menthol e-cigarette at least once per day, for at least 3 months prior to Screening;
- •willing to switch from using their current e-cigarette brand style to using a different e-cigarette brand style during the study;
- •Cohort 5 - Electronic cigarette #3 smokers:
- •self-reports at the Screening Visit smoking a menthol e-cigarette at least once per day, for at least 3 months prior to Screening;
- •willing to switch from using their current e-cigarette brand style to using a different e-cigarette brand style during the study;
- •Cohort 6 - U.S Market-sample electronic cigarette smokers:
- •self-reports at the Screening Visit smoking the selected U.S. market-sample e-cigarettes (menthol or non-menthol) at least once per day, for at least three months prior to Screening;
- •willing to continue exclusive use of their preferred style (flavor) of e-cigarette during the study.
- •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 or be surgically sterile for at least 90 days prior to enrollment;
- •Able to safely perform the required study procedures, as determined by the Investigator.
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 participant from participating safely in the study (e.g., hypertension, asthma, or other lung disease; cardiac disease; neurological disease; or psychiatric disorders) based on screening assessments such as safety labs and medical history or physical examination at Enrollment;
- •Self-reports or safety labs indicate diabetes;
- •At risk for heart disease, as determined by the Investigator;
- •Use of medicine for treatment of depression or asthma;
- •Systolic blood pressure of ≥150 mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure of ≥95 mmHg, measured after being seated for 5 minutes;
- •Postponing a decision to quit smoking (defined as planning a quit attempt within 30 days of the Screening Visit) to participate in this study;
- •Employed by a tobacco company, the study site, or environmental test chamber vendor;
- •Females who have a positive pregnancy test, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or intend to become pregnant during the course of the study;
- •History of claustrophobia;
