| NCT03541044 | A Bioequivalence Study of Two Nicotine Lozenges in Fasting Conditions in Healthy Smokers | PHASE1 | COMPLETED | 46 | — | — | Jun 18, 2018 | Mar 24, 2019 | Mar 12, 2020 | 1 | United States |
| NCT03543137 | To Assess the Bioequivalence of the 4mg Prototype Mini Nicotine Lozenge to the Reference Product (Nicorette) in Healthy Smokers | PHASE1 | COMPLETED | 37 | — | — | Jun 18, 2018 | Nov 12, 2018 | Dec 4, 2019 | 1 | United States |
Bioequivalence of prototype mini lozenges with nicorette mini lozenge was assessed by measuring AUC(0-t), where t= time of the last measurable plasma concentration. AUC(0-t) was calculated using the linear trapezoidal with linear interpolation method. A linear mixed-effects model was fit to the natural log (ln)-transformed PK variable (AUC0-t), as the dependent variable, and treatment, period, and sequence as fixed effects. Participant nested within sequence was a random effect. The treatment difference and its 90% CI were exponentiated to obtain the geometric mean ratios (GMR) between the test and reference products and its 90% CI. Geometric Coefficient of variation was provided as percentage.
Bioequivalence of prototype mini lozenges with nicorette mini lozenge was assessed by measuring AUC(0-inf). AUC(0-inf) = AUC0-t + (Clast/kel), where, AUC0-t= area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to time t; Clast= last observed/measured plasma concentration and kel= elimination rate constant. A linear mixed-effects model was fit to the natural log (ln)-transformed PK variable (AUC\[0-inf\]), as the dependent variable, and treatment, period, and sequence as fixed effects. Participant nested within sequence was a random effect. The treatment difference and its 90% CI were exponentiated to obtain the GMR between the test and reference products and its 90% CI. Geometric Coefficient of variation was provided as percentage.
Blood samples were collected at designated timepoints. Bioequivalence of prototype mini lozenges with nicorette mini lozenge was assessed by measuring Cmax that was taken directly from bioanalytical data. Geometric Coefficient of variation was provided as percentage. A linear mixed-effects model was fit to the natural log (ln)-transformed PK variable (Cmax) as the dependent variable, and treatment, period, and sequence as fixed effects. Participant nested within sequence was a random effect. The treatment difference and its 90% CI were exponentiated to obtain the GMR between the test and reference products and its 90% CI. Geometric Coefficient of variation was provided as percentage.
| Arm | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Test Product | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants will receive a single Nicotine Prototype Mini lozenge (2mg) by oral/buccal route of administration. |
| Reference Product | ACTIVE_COMPARATOR | Participants will receive a single Nicorette Mini lozenge (2 mg) by oral/buccal route of administration. |
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Nicotine Prototype Mini lozenge | DRUG | A single dose of a prototype nicotine 2mg lozenge will be placed in participants mouth, occasionally moving it side to side. Allowing it to slowly dissolve and try to minimize swallowing. Participants will be instructed not to chew lozenge. The lozenge should be completely dissolved. |
| Nicorette Mini Lozenge | DRUG | A single dose of a 2 mg nicotine polacrilex mini lozenge (Nicorette Minis) will be placed in participants mouth, occasionally moving it side to side. Allowing it to slowly dissolve and try to minimize swallowing. Participants will be instructed not to chew lozenge. The lozenge should be completely dissolved. |
