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

Experimental: Convexity/Vitala
For all enrolled Subjects, STAGE 1 (Days 1 - 14 equals Convex Product Wear Period followed by, for those who successfully complete Stage I, weekly increases in wear time of the Vitala™ device beginning with 4 hours of daily wear per week (Days 15 to 21), followed by 8 hours of daily wear time per week (Day 22 to 28), followed by 12 hours of daily wear time (Days 29 to 43).
Device: Vitala
Vitala™ Continence Control Device

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessment of safety during 12 hours of Vitala™ device wear with convex products by measuring the frequency of adverse events relating to the stoma (including gastrointestinal, stomal and surrounding skin events), and stomal vascularity.
Time Frame: 29 Days
Assess safety during 12 hours of Vitala™ device wear with convex products by measuring the frequency of adverse events relating to the stoma (including gastrointestinal, stomal and surrounding skin events), and stomal vascularity.
29 Days
Assessment of the Efficacy in the Restoration of Continence (absence of fecal leakage around the device) for 29 days of Vitala™ daily wear according to the following parameters.
Time Frame: 29 Days

Restoration of Continence (absence of fecal leakage around the device) for 29 days of Vitala™ daily wear according to the following parameters:

  • Proportion of subjects with leakage over time.
  • Overall weighted leakage rate.
  • Proportion of subjects without leakage.
  • Self-rating of ability to restore continence.
29 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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessment of the Efficacy of Vitala™ device will also be evaluated for the following efficacy parameters.
Time Frame: 29 Days

Vitala™ device will also be evaluated for the following efficacy parameters:

  • Security of the device.
  • Flange to flange security.
  • Device wear time.
  • Subject comfort.
  • Control of odor.
  • Control of noise due to flatus release from the stoma.
  • Ease of use of the device during application and removal.
  • Subject acceptance of the device.
