About this trial

The medical device It is indicated to promote the re-epithelialization processes of the vaginal mucosa, in the prevention of vaginal conditions of bacterial and fungal origin, and as an adjuvant in their treatment.

The primary efficacy endpoint is based on the VAS symptom score (abnormal vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain, dysuria, burning micturition, dyspareunia, vulvar irritation, and itching on a 10-point scale), specifically the percentage of patients with therapeutic success, defined as resolution of signs and symptoms of recurrent bacterial and fungal infections (total symptom score \<2) at the end of treatment.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age between 18 and 75 years

Signed written informed consent.

At least two subjective symptoms and two objective signs (at least moderate) of vaginal inflammation due to infection. Vaginal inflammation will be assessed based on six subjective symptoms (burning, pain, itching, irritation, dyspareunia, and dysuria) and four objective signs (swelling, vaginal discharge typical of the infection, pH, and presence of abrasion/erosion).

Confirmed recurrent bacterial vaginosis and candidiasis.

Disqualifiers

Patients who do not sign the informed consent form

Other gynecological diseases, immunosuppressive diseases (e.g., HIV infection), or who are immunocompromised for reasons such as corticosteroid therapy, chemotherapy, anti-angiogenic agents, or immunosuppressants, patients with diabetes

Patients receiving antibiotics, anti-inflammatory agents, analgesics, antineoplastic drugs, or immunosuppressants within 4 weeks prior to study inclusion

History of connective tissue diseases, e.g., systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, Sjogren's syndrome, or mixed connective tissue disease

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

efficacy endpoint: VAS score for symptoms

The primary efficacy endpoint is based on the VAS score for symptoms (abnormal vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain, dysuria, burning micturition, dyspareunia, vulvar irritation, and itching on a 10-point scale), specifically the percentage of patients with therapeutic success, defined as resolution of signs and symptoms of recurrent bacterial and fungal infections (total symptom score \<2) at the end of treatment reported below.

Time frame
"From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 days (evaluation after menstrual cycle)

Secondary outcomes

1

efficacy: evaluation of pH

evaluation of pH with instrument for pH

Time frame
"From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 days (after menstrual cycle)
2

efficacy: VAS evaluation

The change from the semi-quantitative baseline score, expressed both for individual signs and symptoms and for their sum (total symptom VAS)

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 days (after menstrual cycle)
3

safety endpoint

The safety and tolerability of the treatments will be evaluated by investigating local and expected adverse events, as a consequence of the application of the product and any other adverse events occurring during the study.

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 days (after menstrual cycle)
