Detailed Description

:This was a Phase 2, multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effectivenessand safety of SYM-1219 in women with bacterial vaginosis. Patients determined to be eligible for the study were randomized to one of the following treatments: SYM-1219 1 gram orallyas a single dose;SYM-1219 2 grams orally as a single dose;or matching placebo. Patients determined to be eligible based on the clinical assessments at the Baseline visit (Day 1) were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio and received a singledose of the assigned study treatment on Day 1 under fasted conditions (i.e., no food 2 hours prior to or 1 hour after dosing). The centralized randomization was stratified by the number of reported episodes of BV in the past 12 months (including the current episode): 3 or fewer episodes versus 4 or more episodes. Patients were asked to complete a daily telephone questionnaire on Days1to7 and at the Test of Cure (TOC)/End of Study (EOS)visit. Patients were also contacted by telephone once on Day 8 to 10 to inquire about possible adverse events (AEs). A TOC visit was conducted between Day 21 and 30; or at EOSif the final visit was notconducted between Day 21and30

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:

  • Are females at least 18 years of age in good general health who are not menopausal.
  • Have a clinical diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis, defined as having all of the following criteria:
  • Off-white (milky or gray), thin, homogeneous vaginal discharge
  • Vaginal pH ≥ 4.7
  • Presence of clue cells of ≥ 20% of the total epithelial cells on microscopic examination of the vaginal saline wet mount
  • A positive 10% KOH Whiff test.
  • Have a Gram stain slide Nugent score ≥ 4 at the Baseline visit (Day 1)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Are pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant during the study.
  • Are suspected clinically (or confirmed diagnostically) of having alternative causes of vaginal symptoms including candidiasis, Chlamydia trachomatis, Trichomonas vaginalis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Herpes simplex.

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
Cure of Bacterial Vaginosis
Time Frame: Study Days 21-30
Clinical Cure is a composite endpoint determined by normalization of the vaginal discharge and a negative KOH "Whiff" test and Clue cells less than 20% of the total epithelial cells on microscopic examination of the vaginal wet mount. (Number of subjects with clinical cure at TOC/EOS)
Study Days 21-30

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
Cure of Bacterial Vaginosis
Time Frame: Study Days 21-30
Number of subjects with therapeutic cure at Test of Cure (TOC)/End of Study (EOS) (clinical cure + normalization of Nugent score)
Study Days 21-30
Number of Patients With Therapeutic Cure
Time Frame: Study Days 21-30
Clinical Cure and Normalization of the Nugent score. The Nugent score is based on a microscopic assessment of a Gram stain of the vaginal fluid.
Study Days 21-30
Number of Patients With a Normal Nugent Score
Time Frame: Study Days 21-30
The Nugent score is determined by a microscopic assessment of a Gram stain of vaginal fluid.
Study Days 21-30
