Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the abuse liability of cigarettes with altered composition (cigarettes differing in composition; e.g., tar levels, amount of sugar, casings) is reduced relative to standard composition cigarettes.

Conditions

  • Tobacco Use Disorder
  • Substance-Related Disorders

Interventions

OTHER

Altered composition cigarette

This double-blind study will systematically determine the abuse liability of altered composition cigarettes using a behavioral economics abuse-liability approach. Altered composition cigarettes (e.g., cigarettes differing in casings, sugars, tar levels, moisture) may result in decreased intake and decreased dependence, although critical questions remain regarding the abuse-liability of altered composition cigarettes, whether exposure to these cigarettes reduces use, and whether altered composition cigarettes will substitute for standard cigarettes. The addictive effects and abuse liability of altered composition cigarettes, therefore, are not well understood, and will be tested in this study.
