About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center Randomized Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Oral Encochleated Amphotericin B (CAMB/MAT2203) Compared With Oral Fluconazole in the Treatment of Moderate to Severe Vulvovaginal Candidiasis (VVC)

This is a multi-center, randomized study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 200 mg CAMB and 400 mg CAMB compared with a single 150 mg dose of fluconazole in the treatment of moderate to severe VVC.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, randomized study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of 200 mg CAMB and 400 mg CAMB compared with a single 150 mg dose of fluconazole in the treatment of moderate to severe VVC.

Approximately 75 women with moderate to severe VVC will be randomized to 1 of 3 treatment groups (200 mg CAMB, 400 mg CAMB, or fluconazole) to achieve approximately 25 subjects in each group. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of 200 mg and 400 mg doses of oral CAMB for 5 days compared with a single 150 mg dose of oral fluconazole in subjects with moderate to severe VVC. The secondary efficacy objectives of this study included the clinical cure rate, mycology eradication and responder outcome. Tertiary objectives include pharmacokinetics.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Outcome Assessed at Test of Cure Visit

    Number of patients determined to be a Clinical Cure (resolution of the VVC signs and symptoms that were present at baseline without further antifungal treatment); Clinical Failure (incomplete resolution of signs and symptoms of VVC that were present at baseline or new signs and symptoms have developed and require the initiation of non-study antifungal drugs); or Clinical indeterminate (insufficient data are available to determine if the subject is a cure or failure)

    Measured: 12 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Mycological Outcome Assessed at Test of Cure

    Number of patients with mycological eradication (vaginal swab culture negative for growth of baseline Candida species); mycological persistence (vaginal swab culture positive for growth of baseline Candida species); or mycological indeterminate (vaginal swab culture not available or the culture cannot be interpreted or is considered contaminated)

    Measured: 12 days

  2. Overall Response

    Number of patients with overall response at Day 12 (Test of cure visit) of composite signs and symptoms defined as overall success (achievement of both a clinical cure and microbiological eradication); overall failure (clinical failure or microbiological persistence) or overall indeterminate (insufficient data are available to determine if the patient is an overall success or failure).

    Measured: 12 Days

  3. Change in Composite Clinical Cure Score

    The percent change from baseline to Day 12 (Test of Cure Visit) of the composite clinical cure score of signs (erythema, edema or excoriation) and symptoms (itching, burning or irritation) on a scale of 0 to 3 for each sign and symptom where 0 = none (complete absence of any sign or symptom); 1 = mild (slight); 2 = moderate (definitely present) or 3 = severe (marked/intense). The maximum score at baseline = 18 (score of 3 for each sign and symptom). The minimum score at baseline = 4 (score of 2 for at least 2 signs or symptoms). A lower score at Day 12 represents a better outcome.

    The mean percent change from baseline score to Day 12 score is presented for each arm as a negative number and represents a decrease in severity of signs and symptoms. A bigger decrease represents a better outcome.

    Measured: Between randomization visit (Baseline) and Day 12 visit (Test of Cure)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Oral Encochleated Amphotericin B (CAMB) and Fluconazole in people with Vulvovaginitis and Yeast Infection, run by Matinas BioPharma Nanotechnologies, Inc. at 23 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 4 inclusion and 9 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 2 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Clinical Outcome Assessed at Test of Cure Visit (time frame: 12 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 2 Nov 2018.
