Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine PEC versus (vs.) TEC vs. nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) on tobacco use patterns including product switching, abstinence from cigarettes, and number of cigarettes smoked.
II. Examine PEC vs. TEC vs. NRT on cigarette craving, withdrawal symptoms, and perceived nicotine dependence.
III. Examine PEC vs. TEC on product appeal and uptake, including initial trial, days used during period of product provision, and purchase and continued use after 12 weeks.
OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.
ARM I: Participants receive PEC for 14 weeks, including a 2-week pre-switch period to become familiar with usage.
ARM II: Participants receive TEC for 14 weeks, including a 2-week pre-switch period to become familiar with usage.
ARM III: Participants receive NRT (nicotine patches and lozenges) for 14 weeks, including a 2-week pre-switch period to become familiar with usage.
Participants in all arms participate in discussions throughout the trial.
SURVEILLANCE PHASE: Participants in all arms are followed for 12-weeks after completion of study procedures.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Switching rate
Time Frame: At week 14
|
Complete switching rate will be assessed in the preferred flavor EC (PEC) and tobacco flavor EC (TEC) arms.
|
At week 14
|
Biochemically verified 7-day point prevalence abstinence from cigarettes
Time Frame: At week 14
|
Biochemical verification of abstinence from cigarettes combined with self-reported use of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) or electronic cigarette (EC) to assess complete switching.
Participants reporting both 7-day point prevalence abstinence and an exhaled carbon monoxide reading less than or equal to 8 will be considered to be abstinent.
|
At week 14
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Cigarettes smoked per day
Time Frame: From baseline to 26 weeks
|
Changes in cigarettes smoked per day from baseline to 26 weeks will be evaluated with the timeline follow-back questionnaire.
|
From baseline to 26 weeks
|
Number of days used
Time Frame: From baseline through 14 weeks
|
The number of days the study products are used during the period of product provision in the PEC and TEC arms.
|
From baseline through 14 weeks
|
Product appeal
Time Frame: At 2, 6, 14, and 26 weeks
|
EC appeal is measured with the modified Cigarette Evaluation Questionnaire (mCEQ) to assess subjected responses to ECs (e.g., reward, satisfaction).
|
At 2, 6, 14, and 26 weeks
|
Continued purchase and use of ECs
Time Frame: From 14 to 26 weeks
|
The proportion of participants who continue to purchase and use ECs between 14 and 26 weeks in the PEC and TEC arms.
|
From 14 to 26 weeks
|
Change in nicotine dependence
Time Frame: From baseline to 14 weeks
|
Among participants abstaining from smoking, changes in nicotine dependence from baseline to 14 weeks will be assessed in the PEC, TEC, and NRT arms with the cigarette dependence scale.
Scores range from 12 to 60 with higher scores indicating greater dependence.
|
From baseline to 14 weeks
|
Changes in cigarette craving and nicotine withdrawal
Time Frame: At baseline, 2, 6, 14, and 26 weeks
|
Cigarette craving and Nicotine Withdrawal will be measured using the Mood and Physical Symptoms Scale (MPSS).
Total MPSS scores range from 12 to 60 with higher scores indicating a greater severity of tobacco withdrawal symptoms.
|
At baseline, 2, 6, 14, and 26 weeks
