Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Signed and dated an institutional review board (IRB)/independent ethics committee (IEC)-approved informed consent form before any study-specific screening procedures are performed. 2.

BMI is calculated by taking the subject’s weight, in kilograms, divided by the square of the subject’s average height, in meters, at screening: BMI = weight (kg)/[height (m)]2 4. Healthy as determined by the investigator on the basis of medical history, physical examination, clinical laboratory test results, vital signs, and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). 5. Smoker of at least 1 pack or more of cigarettes per day (20 +/- 3 cigarettes) for > 1 year as determined by history. 6. Have a high probability for compliance with and completion of the study. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Positive serologic findings for human immunodeficiency virus antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen, and/or hepatitis C virus antibodies. Allergies and Adverse Drug Reactions 13. History of any clinically important drug allergy or adverse drug reaction. Prohibited Treatments 14.
