Summary

Evaluate if the ad libitum use of the THS 2.2 Menthol (mTHS), a candidate Modified Risk Tobacco Product, for 5 days in confinement, and after 86 days in an ambulatory setting, by apparently adult healthy smokers results in a reduction in the levels of biomarkers of exposure (BoExp) to selected harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs).
