Who may be able to join

  • Healthy women, inclusive of ages 18-35* years at the enrollment visit

Who cannot join

  • Known hypersensitivity to estrogens or progestins

  • Undiagnosed abnormal vaginal bleeding
  • Undiagnosed vaginal discharge, vaginal lesions or abnormalities. Subjects diagnosed at screening with a Chlamydia or gonococcus infection may be included in the trial following treatment; partner treatment is also recommended. Investigators should make a determination if subjects are at high risk for reinfection, e.g., multiple sex partners, untreated partner, and whether such subjects can be included
  • History of pelvic inflammatory disease since the subject's last pregnancy
Show all 34Show fewer

  • Known or suspected carcinoma of the breast
  • Carcinoma of the endometrium or other known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia

  • Benign or malignant liver tumors; active liver disease
  • Diastolic blood pressure (BP) >85 mm Hg and/or systolic BP >135 mm Hg after 5-10 minutes rest (at screening)
  • Known or suspected alcoholism or drug abuse within their lifetime
  • Elevated serum fasting clinical chemistry values or complete blood count (CBC) values designated clinically significant by the investigator and/or medically qualified sub-investigator
  • Screening hemoglobin levels less than 12.5 g/dL or hematocrit less than 38%.
  • Participation in another clinical trial involving an investigational drug within the last 30 days (prior to screening)
  • BMI >29
  • Use of liver enzyme inducers on a regular basis

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CVR treatment cycleExperimentalWomen who meet all inclusion and no exclusion criteria will be randomized to the first treatment cycle with the CVR alone followed by the second treatment cycle with the CVR and miconazole (one of three dosing regimens) or the first treatment cycle with the CVR and miconazole followed by the second treatment cycle with the CVR alone.
Receives: Drug: NES/EE CVR

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NES/EE CVR in people with Antifungal Drug Adverse Reaction, run by Population Council at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 34 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Drug Drug Interaction of NES/EE CVR and topical anti-fungal medication (time frame: Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02215395, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Aug 2017.
