Brief Summary: Very little is known about the impact of combustion-free nicotine delivery systems C-F NDS on cardiovascular risk factors in T2DM patients who smoke Data from clinical studies to identify any potential reduction in individuals risk relative to the risk of continued smoking are needed

This study aims to test the hypothesis that avoiding exposure to cigarette smoke toxicants may translate to measurable improvement in cardiovascular risk factors and functional parameters when T2DM patients who smoke switch to using C-F NDS compared with T2DM patients who continue to smoke conventional tobacco products

The investigators propose a prospective 2-year multicenter randomized controlled trial RCT to evaluate changes in cardiovascular risk factors and functional parameters in diabetic smokers using C-F NDS and compared to those continuing cigarette smoking
Detailed Description: This is a multicenter controlled study utilizing a randomized switching design for cigarette smoking and C-F NDS use The study will take place in one site in each of five countries Three countries have so far agreed to participate UK Italy Poland An amendment will be submitted to the REC once the final two countries are signed up

A volunteer population of adult smokers with T2DM will be recruited Smokers will be randomized 12 ratio to either continue to smoke their own cigarette brand Study Arm A or use C-F NDS Study Arm B The intended minimum number of participants in each arm by the end of the study is 147

Before randomization all smokers will be reminded of the risks associated with smoking and will be offered a free smoking cessation program according to standard local guidelines and depending on the local availability of antismoking services Those who decline the invitation will be eligible for recruitment into the RCT

Smokers are free to voluntarily quit smokingC-F NDS andor withdraw from the study at any time

Duration

This will be a prospective 2-year study conducted in the ambulatory setting Participants will attend a total of 5 clinic visits at Screening Day 1 Visit 1 Day 90 -5 days Visit 2 Day 180 -7 days Visit 3 Day 360 -7 days Visit 4 and Day 720 -7 days Visit 5

Participants will undergo screening within 28 days prior to Day 1 Eligible participants will be enrolled and randomized on Day 1

Study Arms and Randomization Plan Participants who were eligible and consent to take part will be randomized to either continuing smoking their own cigarette brand Arm A or switching to using C-F NDS Arm B

The randomization sequence will be computer generated with an allocation ratio of 12 Arm A Arm B to compensate for an estimated 50 success rate defined as combined smoking abstinence rate 80 smoking reduction rate in the long term more details in the section about Sample Size Calculation The randomization scheme will be provided to clinical sites via a web-based application set up by the CRO The staff randomizing the participant will access the web-based application when the participant is with them entering their participant identification number date of birth and initials into the program The allocation will be immediately provided by the programsoftware

Product Use Smokers will continue to smoke their usual brand of cigarette until randomization on Day 1 After randomization participants in Arms A and B will be asked to use only their assigned products ad libitum for the whole duration of the study for more infodetails - see below

Participants in Arm A will continue smoking their own cigarette brand as usual Participants in Arm B will trial and familiarize with their allocated products to select the C-F NDS of their preference They will be trained and counseled on the chosen C-F NDS participants will also have the option to try and choose among a selection of either 3 e-liquids or 3 tobacco sticks depending on the C-F NDS they have chosen Participants wishing to use a heated tobacco device will receive one kit and a full 1 week supply of tobacco sticks of their choice they will receive a number of tobacco sticksday corresponding to the number of cigarettes smoked at baseline those wishing to use a vaping product will receive one vaping kit and a full 1 week supply of e-liquids of their choice they will receive 4 10 ml refill containers Free products will be supplied at each subsequent visit throughout the whole duration of the study

Product Monitoring and Compliance A prospective evaluation of cigarette consumption will be carried out throughout the study see below Cigarette use will be self-reported and recorded in the eCRF automated eDiary-SMS system APP tracker

Participants in Arm B will be instructed on the importance of using exclusively their C-F NDS and to abstain from smoking Participants will be asked to report any non-compliance via the automated eDiary-SMS system APP tracker and will be informed that compliance assessments will be conducted throughout the study Non-compliance will be documented

Justification for Study Design

Participants in this study will be a minimum of 23 years of age This is based on

The legal age to obtain tobacco products is 18 years
Participants will be required to have a smoking history of at least 5 years To investigate the effects of abstaining from smoking by switching in smokers with T2DM a population of patients who are intending to make the switch to N-C NDS will be recruited By the end of the study it is estimated that a high proportion approx 50 of patients randomized in the Arm B of the study will not be able to achieve success defined as either complete smoking abstinence or as at least 80 smoking reduction To account for this the C-F NDS population will be oversampled and a 12 randomization ratio scheme ie for every patient randomized in the continue-to-smoke population two will be randomized in the C-F NDS population will be adopted

Treatment blinding This is an unblinded study It will not be possible to blind participants to the intervention they will be receiving It will not be possible to blind trial staff when providing the interventions and collecting data

Unblinded data will be seen and analysed by the Trial Statistician for the purposes of the Data Monitoring and Ethics Committee DMEC meetings All other trial staff who has access to outcome data will remain blinded until prespecified data analyses will be completed Prespecified data analyses will be conducted blind to treatment allocation
