This study will assess the bioequivalence of the test product (Nicotine Prototype Mini lozenge 2 milligrams [mg]) to a commercial reference product (nicotine polacrilex mini lozenge 2 mg) in healthy smokers under fasting conditions.

This study will be a single center, randomized, open label, single dose, two-way crossover in healthy smokers that smoke their first cigarette more than 30 minutes of waking. This study will consist of following Visits: Visit 1 (Screening), Visit 2 (Study Period 1), followed by a Washout period and Visit 3 (Study Period 2). Each participant will be treated with a single dose of the two study treatments (test and reference) in a randomized sequence. Participants will be confined in the study facility for approximately 60 hours during each study session (for 36 hours pre-dosing and for 24 hours post dosing) during which pharmacokinetic (PK) blood samples will be obtained. Participants are to abstain from smoking during the confinement periods and be subject to random measurements of expired carbon monoxide (CO) to confirm abstinence. The CO levels must be ≤10 parts per million (ppm) throughout the study session. There will be at least 5-day and not more than 7-day clinical furlough period between treatment periods. For each treatment period, the clinical confinement period with restriction of smoking is at least 36 hours prior to dosing.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the participant has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study before any assessment is performed.
• Participants who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
• Healthy participants which is defined as in general good physical health, as judged by the investigator and no clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, including blood pressure, respiratory rate, oral body temperature and pulse rate measurement, 12-lead ECG or clinical laboratory tests.
• Body Mass Index (BMI) of 19 to 27 Kilogram per meter square (kg/m2), inclusive; and a total body weight >50 kg (110 pounds [lbs]).
• Female participants of childbearing potential and at risk for pregnancy must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception throughout the study and for at least 5 days after the last dose of assigned treatment. Female participants who are not of childbearing potential must meet at least one of the following criteria: a) Achieved postmenopausal status, defined as follows: cessation of regular menses for at least 12 consecutive months with no alternative pathological or physiological cause; and have a serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level confirming the post-menopausal state. b) Have undergone a documented hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy.
• Participant admits to having smoked commercially available cigarettes daily for the preceding 12 months and to routinely smoking his or her first cigarette more than 30 minutes upon awakening. Brief periods of non-smoking (e.g. due to illness, trying to quit, participation in a study where smoking was prohibited) during that time will be permitted at the discretion of the PI (Principal Investigator).

• Participation in other studies involving investigational drug(s) within 30 days prior to first dose and during study participation.
• Acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the Participant inappropriate for entry into this study.
• Pregnant female Participants.
• Breastfeeding female Participants.
• Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to the study materials (or closely related compounds) or any of their stated ingredients.
• Unwilling or unable to comply with the Lifestyle guidelines described in this protocol.
• Participant has used any nicotine replacement therapy within 21 days prior to the first study session.
• Participant has used chewing tobacco, tobacco products or electronic cigarettes other than cigarettes within 21 days of Visit 1.
• Use of prescription or non-prescription drugs and dietary supplements within two weeks or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of investigational product until the end of the study. Allowed treatments are: Systemic contraceptives and hormone replacement therapy, as long as female Participant is on stable treatment for at least 3 months and continues treatment throughout the study. Evidence or history of clinically significant laboratory abnormality, hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or allergic disease within the last 5 years that may increase the risk associated with study participation.
• History of regular alcohol consumption exceeding 14 drinks/week (1 drink = 5 ounces (150 mL) of wine or 12 ounces (360 mL) of beer or 1.5 ounces (45 mL) of hard liquor) within 6 months of Screening.
• A positive urine drug screen for THC, amphetamine, cocaine, 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine (MDMA)/ecstasy, methamphetamine, or opiates; and urine alcohol testing during screening or baseline testing.
• Participant is unwilling to abstain from tobacco or nicotine-containing product use during each study session (from start of baseline to the completion of the last PK blood sampling). CO measurement immediately prior to randomization (first treatment session) and dosing (second treatment session) should be ≤ 10 parts per million (ppm) for the Participant to be dosed.
• Participant ingests more than 5 cups of coffee or tea a day (or equivalent xanthine consumption using other products).
• Treatment with an investigational drug within 30 days (or as determined by the local requirement) or 5 half-lives preceding the first dose of investigational product (whichever is longer).
• A medical history that, in the opinion of the investigator, might jeopardize the safety of the Participant, e.g., recent myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident (i.e., within 12 weeks prior to the first study session), severe cardiac arrhythmia, history of seizures, orthostatic hypotension, cardiovascular disease, stroke, or TIA.
• A medical history, which, in the opinion of the investigator, might impact the validity of the study results, may require treatment, or make the Participant unlikely to finish the study.
• Oral surgery within 4 weeks of dosing, dental work or extractions within 2 weeks of dosing, or presence of any clinically significant (as determined by the principal investigator or designee) oral pathology including lesions, sores or inflammation.
• Diagnosis of long QT syndrome or QTc > 460 msec for males and > 470 msec for females at screening.

Minor deviations of laboratory values from the normal range are permitted, if judged by the investigator to have no clinical relevance; iv) Ongoing hepatic disease or impaired hepatic function at screening. A candidate will be excluded if more than one of the following lab value deviations are found and are clinical ly relevant: aspartate aminotransferase/serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (AST/SGOT), Alanine Aminotransferase/ serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (ALT/SGPT), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γGGT), alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin or CK.

Safety population was defined as all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study medication.

From signing of the informed consent form until 5 days after last administration of study drug (up to Day 13)

Safety population: all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study medication. All adverse events (AEs) were summarized by system organ class and preferred term. All treatment emergent AEs and serious adverse events (SAEs) were collected and reported. A participant with multiple occurrences of AEs counted once in AE category. A participant with multiple AEs within a primary system organ class was counted once in system organ class.
