General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study was to compare oromucosal nicotine spray (ONS), two sprays of 1 milligram (mg) nicotine, and one Tabex tablet of 1.5 mg cytisine after 12 hours of overnight abstinence with respect to reduction of urges to smoke during the first 5 minutes after start of treatment and to compare the two treatments with respect to the urges-to-smoke scores at 30, 45, and 60 seconds, 3 and 5 minutes versus baseline.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Safety was evaluated by monitoring of adverse events (AEs) throughout study and, vital signs measurements, physical and other observational examinations was evaluated during screening phase.

Average Change in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Craving Score Compared to Baseline | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Urges to smoke was scored on a 100 millimeter (mm) VAS before treatment and then repeatedly during 2 hours. Baseline urges to smoke was also rated using a 4- grade scale. On the scale, 0 corresponds to “no urge to smoke” and 100 mm corresponds to “extreme urge to smoke”. Full analysis set population included all randomized subjects with any efficacy assessments.

Statistical analysis description |
Analysis was done for average change in VAS craving score compared to baseline up to 30 seconds. Treatment comparison was based on a mixed linear model including sequence, treatment and period as fixed effects and subject, nested within sequence, as random effect. Additionally, the baseline urges-to-smoke score at time zero, was calculated as an average of the three pretreatment urge assessments, was included as a co-varying fixed effect.

Analysis was done for change in VAS craving score compared to baseline at 1 minute. Treatment comparison was based on a mixed linear model including sequence, treatment and period as fixed effects and subject, nested within sequence, as random effect. Additionally, the baseline urges-to-smoke score at time zero, was calculated as an average of the three pretreatment urge assessments, was included as a co-varying fixed effect.

End point description |
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Treatment-emergent were events between administration of study drug and up to end of visit 2 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. All subjects who received at least one dose of treatment were included in the safety analysis
