Study Summary

The objective of this study is to test the effect of a range of doses of a novel nicotine film on plasma nicotine levels, expired carbon monoxide and, via a questionnaire, subjective ratings of the film and side effects. The nicotine film is not part of standard of care and is not available in a non-investigational setting. The investigators hypothesize that plasma nicotine levels will be in keeping with those induced by other oral nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs) and by the smoking of a cigarette. Thus, the investigators predict that random delivery of nicotine via the oral film will be safe and well-tolerated by the human subjects.

Primary Outcome

In Phase 1, a trained nurse will implant an intravenous (IV) indwelling catheter in each participant. Participants will place a film containing zero, 2, or 4 mg of nicotine in their mouths and blood will be drawn every 10 minutes thereafter for the next 60 minutes, and then every 30 minutes for the next 2 hours (11 blood draws in all over 3 hours after using the nicotine film). In Phase 2, all 12 participants will receive an IV catheter and randomly allocated to consume 4 films over 12 hours in
