    Assessing the US population health impact of introducing a new e-cigarette product to market using intentions to use data

    VERRON T.; GUO Mengran; NAHDE T.; O’CONNEL G.; CAHOURS X.
    Imperial Brands, Bristol, UK
    In the absence of epidemiological data, computational models are valuable tools for predicting the likely impact of introducing a new tobacco / nicotine product to market on population health. Using best modeling practices, we have developed and...

    Imperial Brands, Bristol, UK
    Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have been acknowledged as having the potential to be substantially less harmful than smoked tobacco by an increasing number of public health authorities. Despite this, U.S. adults remain poorly informed about the...

    Risk perceptions and likelihood of use of (tobacco-free oral) nicotine pouches among current, former and never nicotine users

    STONE C.; KNIGHT-WEST O.; O’CONNELL G.; TOPE A.
    Imperial Brands PLC, Research and Development, Bristol, U.K.
    Nicotine pouches deliver nicotine to the blood via the oral mucosa; since they are not combusted and contain no tobacco leaf, they have the potential to be significantly less harmful than continued combustible cigarette smoking. There is limited data...

    Substantial reductions in selected harmful or potentially harmful constituents in heated tobacco aerosol, compared to 1R6F reference cigarette smoke, correlate with substantially reduced in vitro toxicological outcomes

    CHAPMAN F.(1); TRELLES STICKEN E.(2); WIECZOREK R.(2); POUR S.J.(2); DETHLOFF O.(2); STEVENSON M.(1)
    (1) Imperial Brands PLC, Bristol, U.K.; (2) Reemtsma Cigarettenfabriken GmbH, an Imperial Brands PLC Company, Hamburg, Germany
    Heated tobacco products (HTPs) form a category of nicotine-containing next generation products (NGPs) which show potential for tobacco harm reduction (THR). This is attributed to the absence of combustion in producing a HTP aerosol, which in turn...
