Study groups in NCT02855346
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
200 mg of DPVExperimentalEach participant will receive a VR containing either 200 mg DPV or 200 mg DPV + 320 mg LNG. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio. The VR should be worn for approximately 14 consecutive days +/-1 day. The ring will be removed by the participant (or clinician/designee, if necessary) at the Product Use End Visit (PUEV)/Early Termination Visit. The participant will be followed for approximately 2 days following VR removal

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dapivirine and levonorgestrel concentrations in blood and Vaginal fluid

    To characterize the local and systemic pharmacokinetics of one dapivirine vaginal ring formulation and one dapivirine-levonorgestrel vaginal ring formulations used continuously for 14 days

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Grade 2 or higher Genitourinary adverse event and Grade 3 or higher adverse event as defined by DAIDS

    To evaluate the safety of one dapivirine vaginal ring formulation and one dapivirine-levonorgestrel vaginal ring formulations used continuously for 14 days

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 200 mg of DPV + 320 mg LNG and 200 mg of DPV in people with HIV Prevention, run by International Partnership for Microbicides, Inc. at 2 sites 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 22 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Dapivirine and levonorgestrel concentrations in blood and Vaginal fluid (time frame: 14 days). 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 NCT02855346, 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 22 May 2018.
