Determination of Biomarkers of Exposure and Biomarkers of Potential Harm in Asian Adult Cigarette Smokers

November 5, 2019 updated by: Philip Morris Products S.A.

A Multi-center Study to Determine the Levels of Biomarkers of Potential Harm and Biomarkers of Exposure to Cigarette Smoke in Asian Adult Smokers and Non-smokers

The purpose of this study is to determine biomarkers of exposure to Harmful and Potentially Harmful Constituents (HPHCs) in Cigarette Smoke and cardiovascular-related biomarkers in smokers and non smokers.

Detailed Description

Since Japanese mortality associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is lower than that in the USA although Japan is one of the top four tobacco consuming countries, this study aims to determine biomarkers of both level of exposure and CVD-related biological effects in Japanese smokers compared to non-smokers.

Biomarkers of Exposure (BoExp) include 2-naphthylamine (2-NA), 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP), 4-(methylnitrosaminoi)-1-(3-pyridil)-1-butanone (NNK), carbon monoxide (CO), nicotine, pyrene and 0-toluidine (o-TOL). CVD-related biomarkers include white blood cell (WBC) count, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and homocysteine in plasma; complemented with urinary 8-epi-prostaglandin F2α (8-epi-PGF2α), plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), urinary 11-DTXB2, plasma fibrinogen, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 and von Willebrand Factor.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The level of biomarkers of Exposure (BoExp) to HPHCs - present in cigarette smoke - in Asian smokers compared to non smokers
Time Frame: At Visit 2 (up to14 days after Visit 1)
To measure the level of smoking, at baseline the Fagerstrom nicotine dependence test and urinary cotinine are measured. For measurement of biomarkers of exposure, blood and 24 hour urine sampling are performed at V2.
At Visit 2 (up to14 days after Visit 1)
The level of CVD-related biomarkers in Asian smokers compared to non smokers
Time Frame: At Visit 2 (up to14 days after Visit 1)
At Visit 2 (up to14 days after Visit 1)
