Condom use is currently the only effective way of preventing the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). However, women, who have a greater risk of getting HIV, are often unable to convince their partner to use a condom. Therefore, it is important to develop methods that prevent the spread of HIV and that are controlled by the woman, such as medicines used in the vagina. BufferGel is known to kill the organisms that cause STDs, including HIV. BufferGel may do this without causing genital irritation and sores as other medicines do. More studies are needed to see if this is true.", "detailedDescription"=>"Heterosexual transmission of HIV presently accounts for the vast majority of new HIV infections worldwide. Currently the condom is the only method available that has been shown to be effective against HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). However, women who are at the greatest risk for acquiring HIV are often unable to negotiate condom use. Therefore, it is important that effective female-controlled barrier methods, such as topical microbicides, be made available to women. BufferGel has sufficient buffer capacity to acidify twice its own volume in human semen, which inactivates STD pathogens, including HIV. Unlike most other topical microbicides, BufferGel is non-detergent so it should not cause genital irritation and lesions. The safety and acceptability of BufferGel still need to be studied more carefully.\n\nParticipants are divided into two cohorts. Cohort IA consists of sexually abstinent women and cohort IB consists of sexually active women. Within each U.S. cohort, participants are assigned to apply BufferGel either once or twice daily. Within each international cohort, all participants apply BufferGel twice daily. Participants apply BufferGel for 14 days. Pelvic examinations are performed at Days 7 and 14."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"FEMALE", "stdAges"=>["ADULT"], "maximumAge"=>"45 years", "minimumAge"=>"18 years", "healthyVolunteers"=>true, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria\n\nAll participants must have:\n\n* HIV-negativity by licensed EIA.\n* Willingness and ability to complete a study diary.\n* A regular menstrual cycle with a minimum of 18 days between menses.\n* Ability to insert BufferGel daily as required by the protocol.\n\nCohort IA participants must:\n\n* Agree to abstain from sexual intercourse for the duration of the study.\n\nCohort IB participants must:\n\n* Agree to have vaginal intercourse at least 2 times per week and use non-lubricated condoms for each act of intercourse.\n* Have currently (for 3 months or longer) a single sexual partner who is at low-risk for HIV infection.\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\nCo-existing Condition:\n\nParticipants with the following conditions or symptoms are excluded:\n\n* A Grade 3 or higher liver, renal, or hematology abnormality.\n* Menopausal.\n* Breakthrough menstrual bleeding.\n* Any STD or symptoms, as seen on pelvic exam, consistent with an STD or other genital tract infection or trauma including vaginitis, cervicitis, edema, erythema, ecchymosis, petechial hemorrhage, vulvar or cervicovaginal lesions or abrasions, subepithelial hemorrhage, or signs of genital tract infection (other than asymptomatic bacterial vaginosis) from laboratory evaluations.\n\nConcurrent Medication:\n\nExcluded:\n\n* Any vaginal product other than BufferGel, including lubricants and feminine hygiene products.\n* Vaginal drying agents.\n* Douche.\n* Participation in any other microbicide or contraceptive study.\n* Treatment for any STD.\n\nParticipants with the following prior conditions are excluded:\n\n* IUD, abnormal PAP smear, pregnancy, abortion, or gynecologic surgery in the last 3 months.\n* Any of the following side effects related to Depo-provera use in the past 2 months:\n* headaches, dizziness, abdominal pain, fatigue, or nervousness.\n\nPrior Medication:\n\nExcluded:\n\n* A course of antibiotic therapy (other than treatment for malaria) in the last 14 days.\n* Any spermicide within the past month.\n* Initiation of Depo-provera for contraceptive purposes in the last 6 months.\n\nRisk Behavior:\n\nExcluded:\n\n* Use of intravenous drugs currently or within the past year."}, "identificationModule"=>{"nctId"=>"NCT00000927", "briefTitle"=>"A Study of BufferGel in Women", "organization"=>{"class"=>"NIH", "fullName"=>"National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)"}, "officialTitle"=>"Phase I Vaginal Microbicide Study of BufferGel", "orgStudyIdInfo"=>{"id"=>"HIVNET 009"}}, "armsInterventionsModule"=>{"interventions"=>[{"name"=>"BufferGel", "type"=>"DRUG"}]}, "contactsLocationsModule"=>{"locations"=>[{"zip"=>"02860", "city"=>"Pawtucket", "state"=>"Rhode Island", "country"=>"United States", "facility"=>"Mem Hosp of Rhode Island", "geoPoint"=>{"lat"=>41.87871, "lon"=>-71.38256}}], "overallOfficials"=>[{"name"=>"Kenneth Mayer", "role"=>"STUDY_CHAIR"}, {"name"=>"Kenrad Nelson", "role"=>"STUDY_CHAIR"}]}, "sponsorCollaboratorsModule"=>{"leadSponsor"=>{"name"=>"National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)", "class"=>"NIH"}}}}
