Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Safety Study of Two Dapivirine (TMC120) Vaginal Gels in the United States (NCT NCT00799058)

NCT ID: NCT00799058

Last Updated: 2022-10-25

Results Overview

A composite endpoint was defined as the percentage of participants with any post-baseline abnormal finding from pelvic/speculum examination, colposcopy finding, STI diagnoses, laboratory test of DAIDS grade 3 or higher and any product-related AE. DAIDS severity grades are defined as follows: Grade 1 = mild Grade 2 = moderate Grade 3 = severe Grade 4 = potentially life-threatening Grade 5 = death

Participant Flow

Approximately 180 women (35-50 per RC) were scheduled to be enrolled at 5 research centers in the USA. However, following IPM's decision to give priority to development of the dapivirine vaginal ring above that of dapivirine vaginal gel, the Sponsor decided to stop enrollment into IPM 020 trial after 128 participants were randomized. It was determined that the number of participants already enrolled were sufficient to allow for meaningful analysis of the data. Total trial duration was 18 months.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 16 weeks

Population: All participants who were assigned to a treatment group were analyzed as members of the group to which they were randomized, regardless of adherence to the planned course of treatment. Results are reported for participants who provided vaginal samples.

Cervicovaginal fluid specimens will be obtained to determine vaginal flora before first gel application and at Visits 3, 5, and 6. Appropriate statistical analyses incorporating repeated measures will be used to assess the changes in the vaginal flora in women using Dapivirine Gel 4759, 0.05% 2.5g, Dapivirine Gel 4789, 0.05% 2.5g or the vaginal HEC-based universal placebo gel, 2.5g. Nugent scores were used to assess changes in vaginal flora, and were categorized into three levels: (1) negative for BV (score: 0-3); (2) altered vaginal flora (score: 4-6); and (3) BV (score: 7-10).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks

Population: The PK analysis population included all participants who received at least one dose of the active IP and for whom at least one plasma, vaginal fluid or cervical tissue sample was taken. Results are provided for participants for whom samples were available.

Dapivirine levels observed in plasma will be summarized using simple descriptive statistics.

Population: The PK analysis population included all participants who received at least one dose of the active IP and for whom at least one plasma, vaginal fluid or cervical tissue sample was taken. Results are provided for participants for whom samples were available.

The distribution of dapivirine levels observed in each type of sample will be summarized using simple descriptive statistics. In addition, the proportion of women with detectable dapivirine concentrations will be calculated for each type of sample at each collection time point. Exploratory analyses of dapivirine concentration data will also be performed to take into account information reported in a diary regarding menses and tampon use throughout the trial.
