Evaluating the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of PC-1005 Administered Rectally to HIV-1 Seronegative Adults
A Phase 1 Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of PC-1005 (MIV-150/Zinc Acetate/Carrageenan Gel) Administered Rectally to HIV-1 Seronegative Adults
Study Overview
Detailed Description
PC-1005 is a multipurpose prevention technology (MPT) microbicide in development that is active against HIV, HPV, and HSV-2. This study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of PC-1005 gel when administered rectally.
The study will enroll HIV-uninfected men and women (cis or transgender) with a history of consensual receptive anal intercourse. All participants will receive 3 single escalating doses of rectally administered PC-1005: 4 mL, 16 mL and 32 mL.
The study includes a total of 9 clinic visits and 1 follow-up contact by phone or in person. Participants will receive doses of PC-1005 at Visits 3, 5, and 7. A 2-to-6 week washout period will follow each dosing visit. If no adverse events that preclude continuation to the next dose are identified during this period, participants will receive the next scheduled dose of PC-1005. Participation in this study will last approximately 3 to 5 months.
Study visits will include physical examinations, throat swabs, behavioral assessments and interviews, and collection of blood, urine, rectal tissue, and cervical, vaginal, and rectal fluid.

- History of inflammatory bowel disease by participant report
- * As per the Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events Corrected Version 2.1, July 2017
- Note: Otherwise eligible participants with an exclusionary test result can be re-tested during the screening process. If a participant is re-tested and a non-exclusionary result is documented within 45 days of providing informed consent for screening, the participant may be enrolled.
- Known adverse reaction to latex or polyurethane (ever)
Anticipated use of and/or unwillingness to abstain from the following medications during study participation:
- Anticoagulant medications
- Rectally-administered medications
- Known adverse reaction to any of the components of the study product

- Non-therapeutic injection drug use in the 12 months prior to Enrollment
- Participation in research studies involving drugs, medical devices, genital or rectal products, or vaccines within 30 days of the Enrollment Visit
- Gynecologic, genital, or rectal procedure (e.g., tubal ligation, dilation and curettage, piercing, hemorrhoidal resection, polyp removal) 60 days or less prior to Enrollment, or rectal biopsy, 7 days or less prior to Enrollment. Note: Colposcopy and cervical biopsies for evaluation of an abnormal Pap test as well as IUD insertion/removal are not exclusionary. Anoscopy and endoscopy without rectal biopsies are not exclusionary
Per participant report, medical records, clinical diagnosis and/or diagnostic testing at either Screening or Enrollment:
- Diagnosis or treatment of any anogenital sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the past 3 months (including window between Screening and Enrollment)
- Symptoms, clinical or laboratory diagnosis of active pharyngeal, anorectal infection or reproductive tract infection (RTI) requiring treatment per current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines (http://www.cdc.gov/std/treatment)
- Current symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI)
- Infections requiring treatment include Neisseria gonorrhea (GC), Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) infection, syphilis, active herpes simplex virus (HSV) lesions, anogenital sores or ulcers, or symptomatic genital warts, chancroid, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), symptomatic bacterial vaginosis (BV), symptomatic vaginal candidiasis, other vaginitis, and trichomoniasis.
- Note: Otherwise eligible participants with an exclusionary UTI, BV and/or candida finding may be re-tested during the screening process.
- Note: HSV-1 or HSV-2 seropositive diagnosis with no active lesions is permitted since treatment is not required.
Participants who meet any of the following additional criteria will be excluded from the study:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding at either Screening or Enrollment or planning to become pregnant or begin breastfeeding during study participation. Note: A documented negative pregnancy test performed by study staff is required for inclusion; however, a self-reported pregnancy is adequate for exclusion from screening/enrollment into the study.
- Last pregnancy outcome 90 days or less prior to Screening
- Has any other condition that, in the opinion of the IoR/designee, would preclude informed consent, make study participation unsafe, complicate interpretation of study outcome data, or otherwise interfere with achieving study objectives.
