Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Disease Progression
Disease progression will be assessed by measuring Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1), post-bronchodilator
At month 36

Study Arms (3)
THS
ACTIVE COMPARATORSubjects who are not willing to quit smoking.
Cigarette
ACTIVE COMPARATORSubjects who are not willing to quit smoking.
Smoking Abstinence
ACTIVE COMPARATORSubjects who are willing to quit smoking.
Interventions
Subjects who are not willing to quit smoking during the study duration will switch from cigarettes to using THS
Subjects who are not willing to quit smoking during the study duration will continue smoking their own preferred brand of commercially available cigarettes.
Subjects who are willing to quit smoking may be prescribed an NRT to support them in remaining abstinent from use of any tobacco and nicotine containing products during the study. (Behavioral support will be provided to subjects to aid with abstinence.)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects have read, understood, and signed the written informed consent form (ICF)
- Diagnosis of COPD GOLD Stage 1 or 2 (FEV1/FVC \<0.70 \& FEV1 ≥60% predicted \[post-BD\])
- Current symptoms of chronic bronchitis (sputum and cough) based on CAT questionnaire scores for CAT1 (cough) item ≥ 3 and CAT2 (sputum) item ≥ 3
- Body mass index (BMI) 17.6-40.0 kg/m2 and body weight \> 50 kg (male) or 40 kg (female).
- Subject has a smoking history of at least 10 years.
- Subject has been smoking ≥ 10 commercially available cigarettes/day on average (no brand restriction) for at least 1 year prior to V1 (based on self-reporting).
- Subject has not used other tobacco and nicotine products apart from cigarettes on a daily basis over the past year prior to V1.
- For subjects not willing to quit smoking only: have been advised to quit smoking, informed of smoking risks and of cessation programs and is still not willing to quit during the study duration.
- Subjects willing to quit smoking only: willing to set a target quit date (TQD) within the next 28 days at V1 as assessed by self-reported questions.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects with any (mild, moderate or severe) COPD exacerbation that has not resolved at least four weeks prior to V1
- Subjects with active cancer or history of any cancer
- Subjects with pneumonia or other lower respiratory tract infections that have not resolved at least four weeks prior to V1
- Subjects with other active systemic infections that have not resolved at least 4 weeks prior to V1
- Subjects with other active respiratory disorders such as, but not limited to, tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, sarcoidosis, asthma2, pulmonary hypertension, interstitial lung diseases (e.g., idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis \[IPF\]). No new examination is required if the subject can present at V1, at a minimum, a Chest XRay (CXR) (or Computed Tomography (CT) of the chest, if available) not older than 6 months with anterior-posterior and left lateral views
- The subject is confirmed or suspected with active SARS-CoV-2 infection (as per site and per country recommendation)
- Clinically significant ECG alterations that will not allow subject to participate in the study, per Investigator's discretion
- Any concomitant disease that in the opinion of the investigator would interfere with the study procedures
- Subjects with diagnosed alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD)
- History of alcohol and/or drug abuse which as per judgment of the Investigator would jeopardize either the participation in an investigational study or safety of the subject
- Positive serology test (HIV 1/2, hepatitis B or C).
- Inability to cooperate with the study procedures
- Previous participation in this study, or participation in an investigational study (drug or medical device) within 4 weeks before V1 (participation in observational studies/registries allowed)
