      A 26-week Extension Study to Determine the Biological and Functional Changes in Healthy Smokers Who Switched From Conventional Cigarettes (CC) to Tobacco Heating System 2.2 (THS 2.2) Compared to Those Who Continued to Smoke CC in the ZRHR-ERS-09-US Study

      Brief Summary

      The objective of the ZRHR-ERS-09-EXT-US study is to further assess the effect of the Tobacco Heating System 2.2 (THS 2.2), a candidate Modified Risk Tobacco Product, compared to conventional cigarettes (CC) on the components of the "smokers' health profile" for a prolonged period of 26 weeks, providing additional information to the results of the original study ZRHR-ERS-09-US of 26-week exposure (NCT02396381). In total, the ZRHR-ERS-09-EXT-US study will extend the exposure period to 52 weeks.

      Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. All of our RRPs are smoke-free products that deliver nicotine with far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
