Official title

Characterization of Nicotine Exposure and Urge-to-Smoke Following a Single Controlled Administration and Short-Term Ad Lib Use of Electronic Cigarettes and Conventional Cigarettes in Adult Smokers

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This trial was the initial characterization of the blu™ products being studied, with the purpose of gaining an understanding of the exposure to nicotine and craving reduction attained following use of blu™ e-cigarettes by adult smokers. Two types of exposures were utilized: a single controlled administration and a short-term ad lib use. As smoking behaviors vary from smoker to smoker, a controlled administration allows for some standardization of nicotine "dose" for each of the study products to better understand their uptake characteristics as well as urge reduction achieved under controlled conditions. Further evaluation under ad lib product use conditions provides insight into product self-administration behaviors that will allow subjects to achieve acceptable levels of urge reduction. Comparisons were made to evaluate differences between blu™ formulations as well as to the market-leading conventional cigarette, Marlboro Gold King Size ("Marlboro cigarette').
