Participant Flow
Study initiated (first subject screened): 01 August 2013 At admission (Day -2), all the subjects performed a product trial of the THS 2.2 Menthol. During the baseline period, they continued smoking their single preferred brand of mCC. Then, on Day 0, they were randomized to one of the 3 study arms (mTHS 2.2, mCC or SA) in a 2:1:1 ratio.
Enrolled and randomized population = 160 subjects * 78 subjects in mTHS 2.2 * 42 subjects in mCC * 40 subjects in SA Number of subjects enrolled but NOT randomized (who tried the mTHS 2.2 at Day -2) = 0
