Tolerability and Pharmacokinetic Study of Econazole Nitrate Plus Benzydamine HCl Vaginal Pessary
February 6, 2017 updated by: Aziende Chimiche Riunite Angelini Francesco S.p.A
A Phase I Study of a Novel Antimycotic Vaginal Pessary Formulation (Econazole Nitrate 150 mg + Benzydamine HCl 6 mg) Administered Once Daily for 3 Days to Healthy Women
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the local tolerability of the new Econazole/Benzydamine pessary, in comparison with Econazole and Benzydamine stand-alone products and placebo.
Pharmacokinetics of the study products after single and multiple applications o.d. for 3 days, overall local and general tolerability, safety and comfort of use will also be evaluated.

Genders Eligible for Study
Female
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Informed consent: signed written informed consent before inclusion in the study.
- Sex and age: healthy women, aged 18-55 years old inclusive.
- Body Mass Index (BMI): 18.5-30 kg/m2 inclusive.
- Vital signs: systolic blood pressure 100-139 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 50-89 mmHg, heart rate 50-90 bpm, measured after 5 min at rest (sitting position).
- Full comprehension: ability to comprehend the full nature and purpose of the study, including possible risks and side effects; ability to co-operate with the Investigator and to comply with the requirements of the entire study.
- Sexual abstinence: agreement to sexual abstinence during the study.
Contraception and fertility: women of child-bearing potential, even if sexually abstinent during the study as required by the study inclusion criteria, must be using at least one reliable method of contraception, as follows:
- hormonal oral, implantable, transdermal, or injectable contraceptives for at least 2 months before the screening visit;
- a non-hormonal intrauterine device [IUD] for at least 2 months before the screening visit;
- a male sexual partner who agrees to use a male condom;
- a vasectomised sexual partner. Female participants of non-child-bearing potential will be admitted. For all female subjects, pregnancy test result must be negative at screening and on day 1.
- PAP test: negative PAP test result (i.e. normal PAP test result without atypical cells) at screening.
Exclusion Criteria:
- ECG (12-leads, supine position): clinically significant abnormalities.
- Physical findings: clinically significant abnormal physical findings which could interfere with the objectives of the study as judged by the Investigator.
- Laboratory analyses: clinically significant abnormal laboratory values indicative of physical illness.
- Allergies: ascertained or presumptive hypersensitivity (including allergies) to the active ingredients (econazole nitrate and/or benzydamine HCl) and/or formulations' excipients or related drugs, e.g. other azoles; history of anaphylaxis to drugs or allergic reactions in general, which the Investigator considers may affect the outcome of the study.
- Diseases: relevant history of renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, cardiovascular, respiratory, skin, haematological, endocrine or neurological diseases that may interfere with the aim of the study or affect the subject's safety.
- Genitourinary diseases: presence of any specific genitourinary symptoms detected at visit 2 with the relevant questionnaire (genitourinary symptoms questionnaire).
- Infection history: history of bacterial urinary tract or bacterial or fungal vaginal infections for 3 weeks before the screening visit.
- Systemic and/or local infections: bacterial or fungal infections that may interfere with the aim of the study or affect the subject's safety. If the results of the microbiological analyses concerning Ureaplasma/Mycoplasma and Actinomyces are positive, the subject can be enrolled only if asymptomatic and without any clinical evidence (gynaecological visit, PAP test and vaginal pH measurement) of vaginal infections.
- Gynaecological findings: clinically significant abnormal findings at the gynaecological visit performed by the study Gynaecologist.
- Mucosa conditions: altered mucosa conditions affecting the site of insertion (e.g. open lesions or other).
- Habits: use of vaginal detergents, soaps and washes that, in the Investigator's opinion, may have an influence on vaginal pH and/or change the vaginal flora.
- Medications: any medication (topical or systemic), including over the counter, herbal medication, topical drugs on the application area, and anticoagulants, such as warfarin, acenocoumarol and rivaroxaban, for 2 weeks before the start of the study. Hormonal contraceptives and hormonal replacement therapies are allowed. Paracetamol will be allowed as a counter-measure for adverse events, on a case by case basis, if deemed appropriate by the Investigator.
- Investigative drug studies: participation in the evaluation of any drug for 3 months before this study, calculated from the first day of the month following the last visit of a previous study and the first day of the present study (date of the informed consent signature).
- Blood donation: blood donations for 3 months before this study.
- Drug, alcohol, caffeine, tobacco: history of drug, alcohol (> 1 drink/day, defined according to USDA Dietary Guidelines 2010), tobacco (≥ 10 cigarettes/day) or caffeine (> 5 cups coffee/tea/day) abuse.
- Diet: Abnormal diets (< 1600 or > 3500 kcal/day) or substantial changes in eating habits in the 4 weeks before this study; vegetarians.
- Pregnancy: positive or missing pregnancy test at screening or day 1, pregnant or lactating women or females of child-bearing potential not following adequate contraceptive procedures.
- Non-compliance: subjects suspected to have a high potential for non-compliance to the study procedures according to the Investigator's judgement, including non-compliance to sexual abstinence during the study.
- Drug test (cocaine, amphetamine, methamphetamine, cannabinoids, opiates and ecstasy): positive result at the drug test at screening.
- Alcohol test: positive alcohol breath test at day 1.
