March 4, 2010 updated by: Biomedical Development Corporation
The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of an investigational oral rinse in reducing uropathogens and treating uncomplicated urinary tract infections.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

A 7-day treatment with a 28-day follow up has been designed as a "before and after" assessment of the clinical signs and symptoms of an uncomplicated urinary tract infection and the reduction/eradication of urinary pathogens. Enrollment is targeted to achieving 20 evaluable subjects by the end of the study. After enrolling in the trial at Day 0 (first day of dosing), participants will report back to the study site at Days 3, 7, and 28. At Day 3 or any time thereafter, worsening of symptoms and/or increases in quantitative bacteria counts will result in removal from the trial and prescription of a rescue medication, which will be selected based on microbial susceptibility testing.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Non-pregnant adult females;
  2. 18 years of age or older;
  3. Clinical signs with one or more symptoms of a UTI (e.g., dysuria, frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain) with onset of symptoms < 72 hours prior to study entry;
  4. One positive dipstick urine test positive either for leukocyte esterase or nitrates or have a urinalysis with > 5 wbc/hpf.
  5. A pre-treatment clean-catch midstream urine culture with ≥ 104 CFU/mL of a bacterial organism

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Males;
  2. Women who are pregnant, nursing, or not using a medically accepted, effective method of birth control;
  3. Three or more episodes of acute uncomplicated UTI in the past 12 months;
  4. Known structural abnormality that would predispose the participant to reflux or urinary retention;
  5. Patients with evidence of factors predisposing to the development of urinary tract infections, including calculi, stricture, primary renal disease (e.g., polycystic renal disease), or neurogenic bladder;
  6. Patients with significant impaired immunity secondary to chemotherapy, oral corticosteroids, or HIV;
  7. Patients with onset of symptoms > 72 hours prior to entry;
  8. Patients with a temperature ≥ 100°F, flank pain, chills, or any other manifestations suggestive of upper urinary tract infection;
  9. Patients with purported hypersensitivity to iodine;
  10. Patients with history of thyroid disease;
  11. Patients who received treatment with other antimicrobials within 48 hours prior to entry;
  12. Any significant medical or psychiatric condition that would render examination difficult or invalid or prevent the subject from active study participation; inability to use an oral rinse;
  13. Use of concomitant medication that, in the opinion of the Study Directors, might interfere with the outcome of the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The primary efficacy endpoint is the reduction of the baseline pathogen at the Days 7 to 10 "Test of Cure" visit.
Time Frame: 7 to 10 Days
7 to 10 Days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The secondary efficacy endpoint of microbiological evaluation classified into four categories (i.e., Eradication, Persistence, Superinfection, and New Infection)
Time Frame: 28-35 Days
28-35 Days
