The specific requirements of the TCA and the criteria for denying marketing authorization will be described as well as a brief discussion of FDA’s understanding of what it means to be “appropriate for the protection of public health.” Finally, the presentation will conclude with an explanation of the rationale for FDA’s decision regarding IQOS and how this may impact future Premarket Tobacco Applications and tobacco control.
