Official title
A Randomized Open Label Crossover Trial to Assess Performance Attributes and Acceptability of Non-medicated Intravaginal Rings Among Sexually Active Women in Atlanta, GA
Overview
A randomized open label crossover trial to assess performance attributes and acceptability of non-medicated intravaginal rings among sexually active women in Atlanta, GA
Interventions
- Device Pro-type IVR
Women will test three non-medicated IVRs on two one-day clinic visits (two on the first day, one on the second day) by manipulating them, vaginally inserting each ring and then performing a controlled set of tasks simulating routine daily activities with the ring in the vagina.
Primary outcome measures
- Mean Acceptability Score per IVR [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at approximately 13 weeks]
Eligibility criteria

5\. Positive chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trichomoniasis test at screening. 6. Symptomatic vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis (BV), or urinary tract infection (UTI) at screening. (Participants who are symptomatic at initial screening will be referred for testing and treatment and may be reconsidered for eligibility after completing treatment and/or if no longer symptomatic).
7\. Presence of genital abnormalities on visual exam with speculum that would contraindicate IVR use.
