Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Efficacy in increasing arousal

Evaluation of the efficacy of BZ371A in increasing arousal using Female Sexual Encounter Profile (FSEP) questionnaire. The study will evaluate number of "yes" answers to question 3 in the Female Sexual Encounter Profile (FSEP) questionnaire, divided by the number of valid attempts (question 7 of the FSEP). The study will evaluate the increase in the FSEP score based on the baseline FSEP value, obtained before using the BZ371A. Thus, the higher the number of yes answers, the better the efficacy of the drug.

Time frame
Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Efficacy in increasing desire, lubrification, orgasm and arousal

Evaluation of the success rate for desire, lubrification, orgasm and for arousal using Female Sexual Encounter Profile (FSEP). The number of successes for desire will be assessed using FSEP Question 2 / FSEP Question 7, for lubrication FSEP Question 4 / FSEP Question 7, for orgasm FSEP Question 5 / FSEP Question 7 and for the degree of arousal FSEP Question 6 / FSEP Question 7. For each question, the number of "yes" answers will be counted as success. Therefore, for each "no" answer the value will be 0 and for each "yes" answer the value will be 1.

Time frame
Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks
2

Evaluation of the quality of female sexual encounters

Evaluation based on the total score of the Female Sexual Encounter Profile (FSEP) questionnaire. The score ranges from 0 to 9. Therefore, the higher the score, the better the participant's sexual encounter.

Time frame
Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks
3

Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)

Evaluation of the score for each domain (Desire, Arousal, Lubrication, Orgasm, Satisfaction, Pain) using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. The score ranges from 2 to 36. Thus, the higher the score, the better the participant's sexual satisfaction.

Time frame
Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks
4

Assessment of treatment satisfaction

Response rate to the Global Assessment Question (GAQ), by the number of "yes" answers to the question about arousal and sexual pleasure.

Time frame
Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks
