Comparative Safety Study of Two Vaginal Applicators With Tenofovir
Comparative Safety Study of Pre-Filled Plastic and User-Filled Paper Vaginal Applicators With Candidate Microbicide, Tenofovir
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of two vaginal applicators, delivering the candidate microbicide Tenofovir, on symptoms and signs of irritation of the external genitalia, cervix and vagina as seen on colposcopy after seven days of twice daily use.
The secondary objectives are to:
- Evaluate and compare the dosing accuracy and precision of the user-filled applicator and pre-filled applicator with the candidate microbicide, Tenofovir.
- Compare the acceptability of the user-filled applicator with the pre-filled applicator.

Filled Volume
Ramy czasowe: 3 dose delivery measurements during 1 week of product use
|
At each dose delivery visit, the applicator was weighed, prior to vaginal insertion.
For the user-filled applicator, the participant handed the applicator to the investigator after filling with gel from the multidose tube.
The applicator was then weighed and returned to the participant for insertion.
For the prefilled applicator, the participant inserted the plunger into the barrel, and then handed the applicator to the investigator for weighing.

3 dose delivery measurements during 1 week of product use
|
Filling Precision (5% Range)
Ramy czasowe: 3 dose delivery measurements during 1 week of product use
|
A 5% range was calculated around the average filled volumes to determine how many applicators were filled within this range (+/-5% of average volume)
|
3 dose delivery measurements during 1 week of product use
|
