EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF OVA AND LAVAGE MEDICAL DEVICES IN THE TREATMENT OF NON-SPECIFIC VULVOVAGINITIS...

VaginosisBacterial

To evaluate and compare the efficacy, activity and tolerability of a vaginal ova formulation containing tindalised cultures (Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus thermophilus) (LOGUSGYN/CANDIDEP OVULES) and in vaginal lavage (LOGUSGYN/CANDIDEP LAVENDER) in patients with nonspecific vulvovaginitis compared to sterile saline-based vaginal irrigation (AELAV PURLING). The primary efficacy endpoint is based on the percentage of patients with therapeutic success, defined as resolution of signs and symptoms of vaginitis (total symptom score <4) at the end of treatment. For the overall assessment of clinical outcomes (resolution, improvement or failure): outcomes at the end of treatment will be considered. The treatment outcome will be measured after 5 days (V2) and after 10 days of treatment (V3) for groups A, B and C Also for group D (later, with a second randomisation, divided into groups E and F) the primary endpoint will be the same as for groups A, B, C at the visit after 30 days of treatment (V4) The treatment outcome will be measured after 5 days (V2) (after 10 days (V3) of treatment the SPT result will be re-evaluated and will be included in the secondary endpoints). The evolution of signs and symptoms of vaginitis is defined as the percentage of patients with resolution (overall score 4), improvement (decrease in overall score from baseline of 50%) or failure (decrease in overall score <50%). Ninety-one adult female subjects (aged 18-65 years) with a diagnosis of vulvovaginitis and the presence of at least two subjective symptoms and two objective signs (at least moderate) of vaginal inflammation were recruited. The study was planned with a randomised, controlled, parallel-group sequential design to test a vaginal ova formulation containing tindalised cultures (Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, Streptococcus thermophilus) (LOGUSGYN/CANDIDEP OVULES) and vaginal douches (LOGUSGYN/CANDIDEP LAVENDER) in patients with non-specific vulvovaginitis to control treatment (AELAV PURLING- vaginal irrigation with sterile saline). The sequential design involves a first phase with randomisation into 4 groups (A, B, C, D) followed by a second randomisation of group D (patients with vulvovaginitis and positive for HPV at PAP test) into two subgroups (E and F). The primary efficacy endpoint is based on the resolution of vulvovaginitis signs and symptoms (total SPT symptom score at the end of the first Phase I treatment period (after 5 days of treatment) for groups A, B, C and D). For the overall assessment of clinical outcomes (resolution, improvement or failure): results at the end of treatment after 10 days (V3) will be considered as secondary endpoints. Phase II will always have the resolution of vulvovaginitis signs and symptoms (total SPT symptom score f4 at the end of treatment at 30 days (V4)) as the primary endpoint, compared to Phase I results in group D. The protocol involves 4 visits per patient over 10 days for the groups. For groups E and F only the visit at V4 after 30 days of treatment. At visit 1 (0 days, baseline visit), patients will have to sign a written informed consent before performing any procedure. Subjects will be screened for study eligibility, verifying that all inclusion criteria and no exclusion criteria are met. At V1, the investigator will collect demographic and anamnestic data and perform a vaginal swab; in case of specific growth of pathogenic organisms, patients will be treated after the 5-day follow-up visit with antibiotics or antimycotics according to the result of the antibiogram. Delivery of the information note to the GP and the study and treatment information sheet to the patient. The investigator will then assess subjective symptomatology (burning, pain, itching, vaginal dryness, dyspareunia and dysuria) Objective symptomatology (leucorrhoea, vulvar erythema, vulvar oedema and presence of abrasion/erosion) Vaginal PH PAP test. Patients will report their degree of satisfaction with the treatment using a 5-point semiquantitative scale. Patients will be interviewed to monitor adherence to the study protocol and symptom trends during the 10-day study period (groups A, B, C and D) and at 30 days (groups E, F) The safety and tolerability of the treatments will be assessed by reporting any local and anticipated adverse events

Suppression Of Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) [SUBVert]

Bacterial Vaginosis

A Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study screening approximately 600 adult females, aged 18-55, with a goal to enroll approximately 250 participants to achieve 200 evaluable participants at the test of cure (TOC) visit. The study is designed to determine the clinical efficacy of an investigational product (IP), TOL-463 Insert, in suppressing Recurrent Bacterial Vaginosis (RBV) when administered to women who have a history of RBV and have been successfully cleared of their current Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) infection administering 500 mg of oral metronidazole, twice a day for 7 days or another CDC-recommended BV treatment. Patient participation will be approximately 100 days while the study is conducted at 4 sites within the United States. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of a twice-weekly application of TOL-463 vaginal insert in suppression of BV in women with a history of RBV following successful induction with oral metronidazole or a CDC-recommended BV treatment.

Vitamin D and Sexual Health

Bacterial Vaginosis

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) develops when the concentration of healthy Lactobacillus species in the vagina declines and is replaced by other bacterial species. BV is the most common vaginal infection worldwide, but the etiology of this complex condition is not clear. BV is associated with a 60% increased risk of HIV acquisition as well as numerous other detrimental reproductive outcomes. A profound racial disparity exists in BV prevalence in women in the United States (US): 23% of white women versus. 52% of black women have BV. The investigators hypothesize that inadequate vitamin D contributes to BV development and/or recurrence. Vitamin D is essential to immune function, serving both to stimulate mechanisms associated with pathogen elimination and to regulate immune response. According to nationally-representative data, 90% of US blacks have insufficient vitamin D levels. In two recent analyses, low vitamin D was associated with higher BV prevalence in pregnant African-Americans; a third replicated this finding in pregnant African-American and white women. The investigators wish to conduct a small, pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the effect of vitamin D supplementation among non-pregnant, BV-positive women at a public sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinic. This small (n=150), two-arm, placebo-controlled, masked, 24-week RCT of high-dose vitamin D supplementation will inform the development of future large-scale RCT design and implementation.

BASIC (Boric Acid, Alternate Solution for Intravaginal Colonization) Study

Bacterial Vaginosis

Bacterial vaginosis (BV), the world's most common vaginal infection, continues to cost patients time, energy, comfort and money. BV is associated with increased incidence of sexually transmitted infections (including HIV), spontaneous abortion, pre-term labour, post-surgical infections, and endometritis. Current treatment for those women symptomatic for BV includes both oral and intravaginal antibiotics, such as metronidazole, which have success rates of 70-80 % at 1 month after treatment. These treatments also have high recurrence rates (49-66 % at one year after treatment) and side effects (10-20 % of women) that include secondary vaginal infection with candida. Intravaginal boric acid has been used for >100 years for the treatment of vaginal infections and is quite commonly prescribed today as a treatment for BV. It is cheap, easily accessible, easy to use, and is an effective treatment of other vaginal infections, such as candida. To date, there are no clinical trials studying the effectiveness of boric acid in the treatment of BV. The objective of this study was to determine whether intravaginal BA is comparable to standard treatment, metronidazole, for the cure of BV in symptomatic women. Our research question is: Among women 16-50 years old symptomatic with BV is intravaginal treatment with BA non-inferior to metronidazole to achieve a Nugent score <7 (cure) by day 17. Hypothesis: H0: BA proportion of women cured < metronidazole proportion of women cured - 10%.
