- Pharmacokinetic measurements [ Time Frame: Baseline and during 10 hours after product administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Pharmacokinetic measurements including:
- the maximum observed nicotine concentration in plasma (Cmax)
- the area under the plasma concentration-vs.-time curve until the last measurable concentration (AUCt)
- the area under the plasma concentration-vs.-time curve until infinity (AUCinf)
- Tmax [ Time Frame: during 10 hours after start of product administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The time of occurrence of Cmax (tmax) following product administration
- λz [ Time Frame: during 10 hours after start of product administration ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The terminal nicotine elimination rate constant (λz)
- Residual Nicotine [ Time Frame: After 30 minutes of chewing ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The amount of nicotine released from Nicorette® gum 2 and 4 mg during 30 minutes' chewing.
- Dissolution Time [ Time Frame: From product administration until completely dissolved ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Actual time required for oral dissolution of new NRT products following product administration

Detailed Description:
This study compares a new oral Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) product containing 2 and 4 mg nicotine with Nicorette® gum 2 mg and 4 mg, after 12 hours of nicotine abstinence, with respect to nicotine pharmacokinetics, during 10 hours after start of administration. Single doses of each treatment are given once in the morning during four separate treatment visits scheduled in a crossover setting with randomized treatment sequences. The study will include 88 healthy smokers between 18-50 years, who have been smoking at least 10 cigarettes daily during at least one year preceding inclusion. Subjects and study personnel will be aware of which treatment is administered at a given visit.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 50 Years |
