A Single-center, Open-label, Randomized, Controlled, 2-arm Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Exposure to Selected Smoke Constituents in Smoking, But Otherwise Healthy Subjects Switching From Conventional Cigarettes to the Tobacco Heating System (THS) 2.1
The goal of this exploratory study is to evaluate the effect of a candidate modified risk tobacco product (MRTP), THS 2.1, on selected biomarkers of exposure to harmful and potentially harmful smoke constituents (HPHCs), compared to conventional cigarettes (CC). The subjective effects (urge to smoke and withdrawal symptoms) which are related to the use of this product will be explored. Initial information on safety and on some biological effects when using THS 2.1 will be collected. Human Smoking Topography (HST) will be explored.

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. Our RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
