A Randomized, Controlled, Open-label, 4 Parallel Arms Study to Demonstrate Reductions in Exposure to Selected Harmful and Potentially Harmful Constituents (HPHC) of Cigarette (CIG) Smoke in Healthy Smokers Switching to Different Versions of Tobacco Heating System (THS) Compared to Continuing CIG Smoking, for 5 Days in Confinement
This is a randomized, controlled, open-label, 4 parallel arm study with a stratified randomization by sex (a quota for each sex [females and males] of at least 40% overall). This study aims to demonstrate the reduction of Biomarkers of Exposure (BoExp) to selected Harmful and Potentially Harmful Constituents (HPHC) in smokers switching from cigarettes (CIG) to each of the Tobacco Heating System (THS) variants with different heating technology (Blade device, Induction Mono device, or Induction Mid device, respectively), compared with smokers who continue to smoke CIG. A reduction of exposure to HPHC is expected in CIG smokers when switching completely to THS.

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 continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. All of our RRPs are smoke-free products that deliver nicotine with far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
