简要总结
In this open label study, 50 eligible women will be assigned to receive the investigational product (IZN-6NVS) - 2.5 g of cream/day for 14 days, followed by 3 applications per week for the next 4 weeks. Clinical assessment of the severity of vaginitis will be performed at baseline and after 2 and 6 weeks of treatment.
The study will evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of IZN-6NVS vaginal cream, in the treatment of atrophic vaginitis (AV) and desquamative inflammatory vaginitis (DIV).
详细描述
This will be a Phase IB study comprised of three study groups:
- Group 1: Women who are naturally or surgically menopausal and symptomatic for AV, but who decline treatment with topical or systemic estrogen.
- Group 2: Women rendered menopausal as a result of pharmacologic treatment (including, but not limited to, aromatase inhibitor treatment, selective estrogen receptor modifiers (SERMs), and GnRH analog treatment), who decline treatment with topical or systemic estrogen.
- Group 3: Pre-menopausal women diagnosed with DIV.
The study will evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of IZN-6NVS vaginal cream, in the treatment of atrophic vaginitis (AV) and desquamative inflammatory vaginitis (DIV).
20 eligible women of groups 1 and 2 and up to 10 eligible women of group 3 will be assigned to receive 2.5 g of cream/day for the first 14 days, followed by 3 applications per week for the next 4 weeks. Clinical assessment of the severity of vaginitis will be performed at baseline and after 2 and 6 weeks of treatment, which will be the end of the study. Patient reported symptom severity will be assessed by questionnaire at baseline and after 2 and 6 weeks of treatment, and at follow-up.

- •For group 3 (DIV): Clinical diagnosis of DIV in pre-menopausal women without estrogen deficiency.
- •For all groups:
- •I. Willing to comply with use of an intravaginal cream containing S. nigra, C. asiatica, and E. purpurea extracts.
- •II. Normal PAP smear within the last 3 years. III. Able to provide informed consent. -
排除标准
- •Subjects recruited in group 1 should not be actively treated for breast, uterine or ovarian cancer within the past year.
- •Vaginal bleeding of unknown cause within 60 days of enrollment
- •Vaginal infection requiring treatment within 30 days of enrollment
- •Any known allergy to the plant extracts in the study cream
- •Any serious disease; concomitant steroid use or sex hormone treatment
- •Endometrial thickness > 5 mm measured by ultrasound for women enrolled with diagnosis of atrophic vaginitis
- •Use of any vaginal moisturizer (e.g. Replens, Gynomonal) within 30 days of enrollment.
- •In groups 1 and 2, Use of any oral, transdermal, vaginal, or systemic estrogen or estrogen/progestin product within 30 days of enrollment.
