This information is provided directly by researchers, and we recognise that it isn't always easy to understand. We are working with researchers to improve the accessibility of this information. In some summaries, you may come across links to external websites. These websites will have more information to help you better understand the study.


This is a randomized, controlled, open-label, 6 parallel arms study to assess reduced exposure of biomarkers of exposure (BoE) of selected HPHC in smokers switching to TP18 (a prototype heated tobacco device) or THS relative to smokers who continue smoking CIG after 5 days of confinement period, followed by 2 days of pharmacokinetic (PK) period of single use of THS/TP18 and CIG, and followed by an ambulatory period.

Start dates may differ between countries and research sites. The research team are responsible for keeping the information up-to-date.  

The recruitment start and end dates are as follows:
