Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the product use and adaptation in adult, current cigarette smoking subjects between baseline and after one month of use of one of two P3P variants. The effect of P3P use behavior on nicotine pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, acceptability, as well as the safety and tolerability of P3P over a period of 1 month will be investigated.

Detailed description

This is a study of daily use of up to 15 P3P products over one month, including 2 confinement periods (2 overnight stays at the beginning of the study and 1 overnight stay at the end of the exposure period). During the confinement visits, nicotine PK from P3P exposure will be assessed as well as pharmacodynamic effects related to craving, sensory parameters, product experience, and product acceptance. Between the two confinement periods, subjects will return to the investigational site for weekly ambulatory visits during which P3P will be resupplied and selected safety and other study assessments will be performed. From the start of the exposure period onwards, subjects will be instructed not to smoke or use other tobacco or nicotine containing products and to use P3P exclusively.

Puffing Behavior of Subject

To measure changes in subject puffing behavior. Evaluated by selection of one puffing behavior response out of three possible responses. * 1\. Puffing and holding the aerosol in the mouth for a short time and then inhaling (i.e. like a cigarette) * 2\. Puffing and immediately inhaling (without holding the aerosol in the mouth) * 3\. Puffing and immediately exhaling, without inhalation

Time frame: Evaluated by site staff on day 1 and day 30. Self-evaluated by subject on day 2, day 7, day 15, day 22, and day 29.
