1. Institutional Review Board (IRB)-/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)-approved written informed consent and privacy language as per national regulations must be obtained from the subject prior to any study-related procedures (including withdrawal of prohibited medication, if applicable).
2. Subject is female and at least 18 years of age.
3. The subject’s signs, symptoms and diagnostic work-up are in accordance with the ESSIC definition for BPS/IC: pelvic pain, pressure or discomfort perceived to be related to the urinary bladder accompanied by at least 1 other urinary symptom such as persistent urge to void or frequency, for at least 6 months in absence of urinary infection or other obvious pathology or identifiable causes. There is documented proof of the diagnosis BPS/IC that has been entered into the subject’s records at least 2 months prior to Visit 1/Screening.
4. Subject has a score of = 4 and = 9 for pain as assessed by scoring the average pain of the week preceding Visit 1/Screening, using an 11-point NRS (0-10).
5. Subject has an estimated voiding frequency of = 8 and = 30 voids per 24 hours.
6. Subject has a score of = 7 on the ICSI questionnaire.
7. The subject must either:
Be of nonchildbearing potential:
- Postmenopausal (defined as at least 1 year without any menses for which there is no other obvious pathological or physiological cause) prior to screening, or
- Documented surgically sterile
Or, if of childbearing potential,
- Agree not to try to become pregnant during the study and for 5 half-lives after the final study drug administration at Visit 5/Week 8, and
- Have a negative urine pregnancy test at Visit 1/Screening, and
- If heterosexually active, agree to consistently use 1 form of highly effective birth control starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 5 half-lives after the final study drug administration at Visit 5/Week 8. Highly effective birth control methods include established use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception, OR placement of an intrauterine device or intrauterine system.
8. Subjects must agree not to breastfeed starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for 5 half-lives after the final study drug administration at Visit 5/Week 8.
9. Subject must agree not to donate ova starting at screening and throughout the study period, and for 5 half-lives after the final study drug administration at Visit 5/Week 8.
10. Subject must be willing and able to comply with study requirements.
11. Subject agrees not to participate in another interventional study while participating in the present study.
12. The subject has undergone at least two different therapies for BPS/IC with unsatisfactory results, prior to study entry.
At randomization:
13. Subject has at least moderate pain as reflected by an average MDP of = 4.0 and = 9.0. The average MDP is the average of daily assessments of MDP in the week prior to the visit with at least 5 recordings. Additionally, the MDP recordings must not differ over 4 points between consecutive days.
14. Subject has a mean voiding frequency of = 8.0 and = 30.0 per 24 hours as assessed with the 3 day electronic micturition diary in the week prior to the visit.
15. Subject is confirmed to be willing to comply and has shown to be compliant with all study requirements during the run-in period.

-subject has received any intravesical pharmacological treatment for BPS/IC (including but not limited to heparin or dimethyl sulfoxide) within 4 weeks prior to the screening visit
-subject had an initiation, discontinuation, or variation in the dose and/or frequency of antimuscarinics, mirabegron, antidepressants (including amitriptyline), anticonvulsants, benzodiazepines, skeletal muscle relaxants, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, non opioid analgesics, pentosan polysulphate sodium, homeopathic medication and/or herbal therapies during the last 4 weeks prior to the screening visit.
