An Assessment Strategy for Modified-Risk Tobacco Products (MRTP)


Authored by  C Poussin

Presented at Portuguese Society of Pharmacology     

Abstract


With dual expertise in biochemistry and computational sciences, Dr Carine Poussin leads various R&D projects in systems toxicology. These projects include risk assessment of new products, development of in vitro cardiovascular mechanistic assay portfolio and pre-clinical to clinical translational research. She also drives projects in the fields of computational data analysis and elaboration of crowd-sourced computational challenges for methods and data verification in systems biology and toxicology (sbvimprover.com).

Our RRPs

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 continued smoking. We have a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Because our RRPs do not burn tobacco, they produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
