Brief Summary

A Phase I, Open-Label, Randomized, Crossover Trial to Investigate the Relative Bioavailability of the 25 mg Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-004 inserted every 30 days and 100 mg Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-008 inserted for 90 days in Healthy Female Participants

Conditions

HIV Infections

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• To determine the relative bioavailability of Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-008 compared to Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-004 by comparison of dapivirine plasma pharmacokinetic parameters.

  Dapivirine concentrations in plasma, measured at specified timepoints during each 90-day ring use period.

  during a 90 day use period

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• To further characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-008 compared to Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-004 in vaginal fluid

  during each 90 days ring use period

• To evaluate the incidence of Grade 1 or higher genitourinary treatment-emergent adverse events and the incidence of Grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse events of the two dapivirine vaginal ring formulations used continuously for 90 days

  during each 90 days ring use period

• To assess the effects on vaginal flora when using Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-004 and Dapivirine Vaginal Ring-008 formulations used continuously for 90 days

  during each 90 days ring use period

• To characterize the vaginal microenvironment over the course 90 days of ring use.

  during a 90 day use period
