Active clinical trials for "Vaginal Diseases"

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of the oral investigational new drug, SYM-1219, for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.

The primary objective of the study was to assess the long-term safety of 30- and 60-mg daily doses of ospemifene in the treatment of Vulvar and Vaginal Atrophy (VVA) in postmenopausal women with an intact uterus.

This study will add to the current knowledge and literature on the ability of an oral lactobacilli preparation to return the vaginal flora to a normal state in pregnant women. The results will potentially serve as the basis for a multi-centre Phase III randomized clinical trial to determine the efficacy of this treatment in preventing preterm birth.

The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate whether vaginal tablets containing 10 mg dequalinium chloride (Fluomizin) are comparable in clinical efficacy and safety to clindamycin vaginal cream (2%) in patients suffering from bacterial vaginosis.

This investigation assessed the effects of asymptomatic BV on daily genital tract shedding of HSV-2 by determining shedding frequency before and after treatment of asymptomatic BV.

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness Secnidazole to treat recurrent BV. Secnidazole is approved for one-time use in acute BV. In this study, the drug will be used for recurrent BV, and given weekly for 18 weeks.

The investigators are trying to determine if oral probiotics (Umeta-Miyue, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1 and Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14) (30 days)with metronidazole vaginal suppositories(7 days) is better than using metronidazole vaginal suppositories only in preventing the recurrence of bacterial vaginosis (BV).

The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of 1% SPL7013 Gel compared to placebo gel for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis (BV). After screening eligible participants will be randomized to receive either 1% SPL7013 Gel or hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) placebo gel at a dose of 5g administered vaginally at bedtime for 7 consecutive days. Participants will be assessed for BV (both by Amsel criteria and Nugent score) at screening/Baseline, after last application (End of Treatment, EOT, Day 9-12) and at the final study visit approximately 2-3 weeks after last dose (Test of Cure, TOC, Day 21-30).

Most studies demonstrate that untreated bacterial vaginosis increases the rate of preterm birth. Despite this, there is no evidence that screening and treatment of asymptomatic bacterial vaginosis nor interpregnancy treatment of endometritis decreases the subsequent rate of preterm birth. However, treatment of symptomatic bacterial vaginosis has been associated with a modest reduction in subsequent preterm birth. Potential mechanisms for this reduction include a decrease in peripheral maternal pro-inflammatory activation of the TH1 inflammatory cascade with treatment, however this direct pathway has not been elucidated. The approved treatment for bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy consists of Metronidazole 500mg BID for 7 days. A more complete understanding of the effect of Metronidazole on maternal inflammation would be useful in designing strategies to reduce the rates of preterm birth. This study proposes to determine the effect of standard treatment of BV carriage on maternal serum markers of inflammation. This will be accomplished by giving patients with asymptomatic BV either the standard treatment of metronidazole or a placebo for 7 days. Blood will be drawn to compare levels of Interleukins 1 and 6 as well as Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of ospemifene in postmenopausal women experiencing moderate to severe vaginal dryness and vaginal pain associated with sexual activity.
