NCT05916911

Brief Summary

HPV infection can lead to cancer, especially when precancerous lesions have developed and high-risk HPV is present. Glizigen is an oral and intravaginal treatment based on activated glycyrrhizinic acid that has shown potential benefit in patients with HPV. In order to improve the existing evidence, the present study consists of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-compared clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of combined treatment with Glizigen Oral Solution and Glizigen Vaginal Gel for the resolution of biopsy-confirmed grade 1 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN-1) in patients with high-risk HPV.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of resolution of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN-1) caused by High Risk Human Papillomavirus (HR-HPV).

    To assess whether nutritional supplementation with Glizigen® oral solution in combination with topical intravaginal use of Glizigen® vaginal gel promotes resolution of grade 1 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN-1) caused by High-Risk Human Papillomavirus (HR-HPV) compared to placebo after two months of treatment and 4 months after the end of treatment. It will be measured by biopsy.

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Antiviral effectiveness of glizigen against high-risk HPV infection.

    2 and 6 months

  • Antiviral effectiveness of glizigen against multi high-risk HPV infection.

    2 and 6 months

  • Control of progression of Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia from CIN-1 to HSIL/CIN-2/3.

    2 and 6 months

  • Grade of safety control

    2 and 6 months

  • To Assess patient Tolerance of the study product.

    2 and 6 months

Study Arms (2)

Glizigen Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive combined treatment with Glizigen® oral solution and Glizigen® vaginal gel for 2 months.

Dietary Supplement: Glizigen

Placebo Group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients will receive combined treatment with Placebo oral solution and Placebo vaginal gel for 2 months.

Other: Placebo

Interventions

GlizigenDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Treatment initiation: Treatment should be started simultaneously with the appropriate oral and intravaginal formulation after the last menstrual period or immediately in menopausal patients. A total of 60 single doses of intravaginal use and 60 doses of oral solution should be given to each patient. The intravaginal gel should be applied every night before going to sleep by inserting the cannula completely into the vagina and pressing the tube until the entire contents of the tube are poured into the vagina, then removing the cannula from the vagina while continuing to press the tube to avoid retrograde aspiration of the product. Application of the intravaginal gel should be discontinued during days of menstrual bleeding. The oral solution should be administered by drinking 1 vial every morning without interruption for 60 days from the start of treatment. It can be taken either on an empty stomach or with food.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Women between 30 and 65 years of age.
  • Diagnosed with infection with at least one high-risk HPV strain (16, 18, 26, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 53, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68, 73 and 82) by PCR test and positive cytology with confirmation of LSIL/CIN-1 by colposcopy and biopsy.
  • Adequate cultural level and understanding of the clinical study.
  • Agree to participate voluntarily in the study and give written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient receiving any other product aimed at favouring the resolution of HPV infection.
  • Women with polymenorrhoea or frequent bleeding that makes vaginal administration of the preparation impossible.
  • Patient with immunosuppressive treatment or with other infectious processes in the genitals (e.g. herpes, candida, etc.).
  • Pregnant patients.
  • Participation in a concomitant trial that conflicts with this study.
  • Women with HIV infection.
  • Patients allergic to any component of the investigational product.
  • Patients who have been vaccinated against HPV before or after the start of the study are eligible to participate in the study, and this should be correctly reflected in the Data Collection Notebook.
