简要总结
Participants will have a 28-day pre-ring baseline assessment period (Stage 1) followed by randomization to order with 5 participants per study arm. All participants will sequentially receive both study products for 28-days with at least a 2-week washout period between products. Arm 1 will receive the TDF-FTC pod-IVR for Stage 2 followed by the placebo pod-IVR during Stage 3. Arm 2 will receive the placebo pod-IVR for Stage 2 followed by the TDF-FTC pod-IVR during Stage 3. During Stages 2 & 3 participants will also complete brief phone surveys (<3 min), computer-assisted self-interviews (CASIs), and in-depth interviews (IDIs) regarding perceptibility and acceptability. If willing, participants' male sexual partners will be invited to complete IDIs as well.

- •History of significant gastrointestinal bleeding in the opinion of the investigator
- •Abnormalities of the cervical, vaginal, or colorectal mucosa, or significant symptom(s), which in the opinion of the clinician represents a contraindication to protocol-required biopsies (including but not limited to presence of any unresolved injury, infectious or inflammatory condition of the local mucosa, and presence of symptomatic external hemorrhoids). Erythema is not exclusionary.
- •Includes any clinically apparent Grade 2 or higher pelvic examination finding (observed by study staff) at Screening or Enrollment, as per the Female Genital Grading Table for Use in Microbicide Studies [Addendum 1, Dated November 2007]

- •1) Female partner did not utilize study product
