    Exploring different ways to enhance the livelihoods of tobacco growing communities and further help contracted growers and their families achieve and sustain a living income

    QUATKE C.
    JT International SA, Geneva, Switzerland
    The concept of living income is referenced in the UN declaration of human rights and widely recognized as an enabler for reducing other human rights risks in supply chains such as that of tobacco. There are also clear demonstrable benefits that can...

    Further validation of the ABOUT-Dependence measure: Extending assessment of perceived dependence on tobacco and nicotine products to users of a heated tobacco product (IQOS)

    AFOLALU E.
    Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, Switzerland
    The ABOUT™–Dependence is a Consumer Reported Outcomes Measure (CROM) developed to assess perceived dependence associated with tobacco and/or nicotine product (TNP) use. It was developed and validated in US English for TNP users who were either...

    COPD AOP-I: quantitative modeling of in vitro data using an adverse outcome pathway for the assessment of decreased lung function risk in humans

    TALIKKA M.; ISKANDER A.
    Philip Morris International R&D, Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, Switzerland
    Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) organize mechanistic knowledge based on empirical evidence into a sequence of cell, tissue, and organ level events that lead to an adverse outcome (AO) in humans. An AOP initiates from the interaction of a stressor...

    Nicotine pharmacokinetics assessments of two types of e-cigarettes compared to conventional cigarettes: two randomised, crossover studies

    YUKI D.*; GILES L.; HARBO S.; HEMSLEY A.
    JT International SA, Scientific & Regulatory Affairs, Geneva, Switzerland (* Now at Japan Tobacco Inc., Scientific & Regulatory Affairs, Tokyo, Japan)
    The nicotine pharmacokinetics (PK) of non-combustible tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, have been widely assessed, with lower or similar nicotine exposure reported for most products when compared to conventional cigarettes (CC). We...

    Heating vs. burning: a non-targeted analytical characterization of compounds with higher abundance in the aerosol of a heated tobacco product than in mainstream cigarette smoke

    LANG G.; ALMSTETTER M.; ARNDT D.; HENAO C.; GOUJON-GINGLINGER C.
    PMI R&D, Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, Switzerland
    Heated tobacco product (HTP) aerosols have been shown to contain—on average—lower levels of known harmful or potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) than smoke from conventional cigarettes. However, few studies have investigated the chemical...

    Quantitation of selected elements in the aerosol of electrically heated tobacco products (eHTPs) by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS)

    O’REILLY C.
    PMI R&D, Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, Switzerland
    Metals are among the most ubiquitous environmental contaminants and can enter the tobacco plant through various sources including soil adsorption and fertilizer application. Additional sources of trace levels of metals present in tobacco can be due...

    Statistical derivation of a fold-change cut-off for non-targeted differential screening studies based on analytical method variability

    KLEINHANS S.; LANG G.; GOUJON-GINGLINGER C.
    PMI R&D, Philip Morris Products S.A., Neuchâtel, Switzerland
    Chemical characterization of smoke-free products relies on both validated quantitative methods for specific analytes and screening methods such as non-targeted differential screening (NTDS). The latter approach identifies compositional differences...
