Brief Summary:
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles (rate and amount of nicotine absorbed) after a single use of the THS 2.2 Menthol (mTHS 2.2) compared to a single use of the menthol conventional cigarette (mCC) and nicotine nasal spray (NNS).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase

Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: mTHS 2.2 then mCC

Each subject will follow the below study design:

  • Day 0 = Wash-out (1 day)
  • Day 1 = 1st intervention (single product use of mTHS 2.2)
  • Day 2 = wash-out
  • Day 3 = 2nd intervention (single product use of mCC).
Other: mTHS 2.2
Single use of mTHS 2.2

Other: mCC
Single use of subject's own mCC

Active Comparator: mCC then mTHS 2.2

Each subject will follow the below study design:

  • Day 0 = Wash-out (1 day)
  • Day 1 = 1st intervention (single product use of mCC)
  • Day 2 = wash-out
  • Day 3 = 2nd intervention (single product use of mTHS 2.2).
Other: mTHS 2.2
Single use of mTHS 2.2

Other: mCC
Single use of subject's own mCC

Active Comparator: mTHS 2.2 then NNS

Each subject will follow the below study design:

  • Day 0 = Wash-out (1 day)
  • Day 1 = 1st intervention (single product use of mTHS 2.2)
  • Day 2 = wash-out
  • Day 3 = 2nd intervention (single administration of NNS)
Other: mTHS 2.2
Single use of mTHS 2.2

Other: NNS
Single administration of 1 mg of nicotine

Active Comparator: NNS then mTHS 2.2

Each subject will follow the below study design:

  • Day 0 = Wash-out (1 day)
  • Day 1 = 1st intervention (single administration of NNS)
  • Day 2 = wash-out
  • Day 3 = 2nd intervention (single product use of mTHS 2.2).
Other: mTHS 2.2
Single use of mTHS 2.2

Other: NNS
Single administration of 1 mg of nicotine




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Nicotine Following Single Use of mTHS 2.2, mCC and NNS [ Time Frame: 3 days ]

    Derived from multiple blood sampling on Day 1 and Day 3 (1 blood sampling pre-product use and multiple blood sampling over 24 hours post-product use).

    Geometric Least Squares (geometric LS) means are provided.


  2. Area Under the Plasma Nicotine Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero (Pre-product Use) to Last Time Point [AUC(0-last)] Following Single Use of mTHS 2.2, mCC and NNS [ Time Frame: 3 days ]

    Derived from multiple blood sampling on Day 1 and Day 3 (1 blood sampling pre-product use and multiple blood sampling over 24 hours post-product use).

    Geometric Least Squares means are provided.
