What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical Cure (Defined as a Complete Resolution of Signs and Symptoms) After 14 Days of Treatment at the Test of Cure Visit (Day 17-Day 22) Using Murray Scoring Scale

    Murray scoring scale range: extent of oral lesions (signs) 0 (none) to 3 (extensive or confluent), ordinal; symptoms (soreness/burning) 0 (absent) to 3 (severe), ordinal. Clinical cure was defined as a complete resolution of signs and symptoms (extent of oral lesions score = 0, symptoms score = 0). Clinical failure was defined as any patient who failed to be clinically cured by the treatment.

    Measured: 17 to 22 days

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Clinical Cure at Day 7 (Using Murray Scoring Scale)

    Murray scoring scale range: extent of oral lesions (signs) 0 (none) to 3 (extensive or confluent), ordinal; symptoms (soreness/burning) 0 (absent) to 3 (severe), ordinal. Clinical cure was defined as a complete resolution of signs and symptoms (extent of oral lesions score = 0, symptoms score = 0). Clinical failure was defined as any patient who failed to be clinically cured by the treatment.

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Clinical Success at Test-of-cure Visit (Day 17-22) (Using Murray Scoring Scale)

    Murray scoring scale range: extent of oral lesions (signs) 0 (none) to 3 (extensive or confluent), ordinal; symptoms (soreness/burning) 0 (absent) to 3 (severe), ordinal. Clinical success was defined as clinical cure or clinical improvement. Clinical cure was defined as a complete resolution of signs and symptoms (extent of oral lesions score = 0, symptoms score = 0). Clinical improvement was defined as having no visible lesion (extent of lesions score = 0) and minimal symptoms (soreness/burning score <2). Clinical failure was defined as any patient who failed to be clinically cured by the treatment.

    Measured: 17 to 22 days

  3. Clinical Success at Day 7 (Using Murray Scoring Scale)

    Murray scoring scale range: extent of oral lesions (signs) 0 (none) to 3 (extensive or confluent), ordinal; symptoms (soreness/burning) 0 (absent) to 3 (severe), ordinal. Clinical success was defined as clinical cure or clinical improvement. Clinical cure was defined as a complete resolution of signs and symptoms (extent of oral lesions score = 0, symptoms score = 0). Clinical improvement was defined as having no visible lesion (extent of lesions score = 0) and minimal symptoms (soreness/burning score <2). Clinical failure was defined as any patient who failed to be clinically cured by the treatment.

    Measured: 7 days

  4. Partial Response at Test of Cure Visit (Days 17-22) Using Murray Scoring Scale

    Murray scoring scale range: extent of oral lesions (signs) 0 (none) to 3 (extensive or confluent), ordinal; symptoms (soreness/burning) 0 (absent) to 3 (severe), ordinal. Clinical success was defined as clinical cure or clinical improvement. Partial response is having decrease in Murray extent of oral lesions score by at least 1 level and a stable Murray symptoms score, with partial symptom response defined as having a decrease in the Murray symptoms (soreness/burning) score by at least 1 level and a stable Murray extent of oral lesions score, and partial clinical/symptom response defined as decrease in Murray extent of oral lesions score by at least 1 level and a decrease in the Murray symptoms (soreness/burning) score by at least 1 level

    Measured: 17 to 22 days

  5. Mycological Cure at the Test of Cure Visit (Day 17-22)

    Mycological cure was defined as a patient who had "no yeast isolated" when oral specimens were cultured for fungi.

    Measured: 17 to 22 days

  6. Relapse at the Late Post-Therapy Visit (Day 35-38)

    "Number of patients" represents the number of participants who completed visit 6 (the late post-therapy visit on Days 35-38) and had been a clinical success at test-of-cure visit (visit 5). For this subset of participants, relapse was defined as a patient who responded to treatment by clinical cure or improvement (i.e., "clinical success") on Days 17-22 at the test-of-cure visit (visit 5) and subsequently had an increase in the extent of oral lesions or symptoms, as assessed at the late post-therapy visit on Days 35-38 (visit 6). No relapse indicates participants who were considered a "clinical success" at visit 5 and did not have a subsequent increase in the extent of oral lesions or symptoms, as assessed at the late post-therapy visit (visit 6). The remaining number of participants in the Intent-to-Treat population who did not meet the criteria for relapse assessment at visit 6 is listed under "Not Analyzed-ITT".

    Measured: 35 to 38 days

  7. Oral Discomfort Using Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Visual analog scale was used by the patient in the patient diary. The scale ranged from 0 (no oral discomfort) to 10 (maximum oral discomfort)

    Measured: 14 days

  8. General and Local Tolerability and Oral Discomfort

    Overall local adverse reactions, including gingival inflammation, gum pain, alterations in taste of food when eating, alterations in taste when not eating, and dry mouth. Visit 4 occurred on Day 14.

    Measured: 14 days

  9. Duration of Adhesion of Miconazole Lauriad 50 mg Mucoadhesive Buccal Tablet

    The mean durations of adhesion from initiation of treatment to Day 14 of miconazole Lauriad 50 mg mucoadhesive buccal tablet (or, in the case of the Clotrimazole troches treatment arm, the placebo mucoadhesive buccal tablet) were rounded to the nearest hour

    Measured: 14 days

  10. Systemic Exposure of Miconazole Lauriad 50 mg Bioadhesive Buccal Tablet

    Number of patients with detectable plasma concentration at Visit 3 (day 7)

    Measured: 7 days

  11. Susceptibility of Candida Species by Microdilution Test

    minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in nonresponders at test-of-cure visit

    Measured: Initiation of treatment to Day 17 to 22

  12. Treatment Compliance

    Number of patients who were 100% compliant with the treatment regimen

    Measured: Initiation of treatment to Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing miconazole Lauriad and Clotrimazole in people with HIV Infections, run by Valerio Therapeutics at 27 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Aug 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical Cure (Defined as a Complete Resolution of Signs and Symptoms) After 14 Days of Treatment at the Test of Cure Visit (Day 17-Day 22) Using Murray Scoring Scale (time frame: 17 to 22 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Sep 2013.
