Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Postmenopausal

Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) Score Compared to Baseline

    The change in FSFI from the baseline event and at 4-weeks post baseline. The FSFI is a 19-item self-report questionnaire to measure sexual functioning in women. The questionnaire assesses six domains of sexual function (sexual desire, sexual arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain) and provides a total score for sexual function. For individual domain scores, add the scores of the individual questions that comprise the domain and multiply the sum by the domain factor. Add the six domain scores to obtain the total FSFI score. The range of total score is 2.0-36.0. Higher value represents a higher level of sexual function. This measure is the change in total FSFI score between baseline and end of treatment phase (4 weeks).

    Time frame: 4 weeks after baseline

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) Individual Domain Scores

    Change from baseline in the FSFI individual domain scores (desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain) at 4-weeks post baseline For individual FSFI domain scores, add the scores of the individual questions that comprise the domain and multiply the sum by the domain factor. The range of each score is: Desire 1.2-6.0, Arousal 0-6.0, Lubrication 0-6.0, Orgasm 0-6.0, Satisfaction 0.8-6.0 and Pain 0-6.0. Higher value represents a higher level of individual sexual function. This measure is the change in individual FSFI score between baseline and end of treatment phase (4 weeks).

    Time frame: 4 weeks after baseline

  2. Subject Perception of the Personal Lubricants Through Subject Perceived Questions

    Subjects' perception of each of the two personal lubricants will be determined through Subject Perceived Questions. Participants ranked a statement (strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, strongly disagree) that best described the experience. Answering options "agree/strongly agree" were combined to the category 'agreement'.

    Time frame: Initial application (within 24 hours of intercourse) and after 4 weeks

  3. The Evaluation of Product Effectiveness, Tolerability and Usability (Subjective Opinion)

    Participants rated their evaluation of Product Effectiveness, Tolerability and Usability after IP use using the following scale: Very Satisfied, Somewhat Satisfied, Neither Satisfied nor Dissatisfied, Somewhat Dissatisfied, Very Dissatisfied.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after baseline

  4. The Impression of Change in the Sexual Intimacy (Subjective Opinion)

    Subjects' evaluation of improvement in sexual intimacy will be determined through the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) questionnaire which is presented in a form of the visual analogue scale: -3 (much worse), -2, -1, 0 (no change), 1, 2, 3 (much better)

    Time frame: 4 weeks after baseline

  5. The Assessment of the Vaginal Epithelial Tolerability (VET)

    The gynaecologist made an assessment of the VET based on the vaginal dermal tissue for signs and symptoms of erythema, oedema, vulvar membrane dryness, leucorrhoea by using the 5-point scale: 1 (none), 2 (slight), 3 (minimal), 4 (moderate), 5 (severe)

    Time frame: Baseline, 2 and 24 hours post single application

  6. Tolerability as Assessed by Subject Perceived Questions

    Tolerability of the two personal lubricants was determined through Subject Perceived Questions. Participants ranked a statement (strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, strongly disagree) that best described the experience. Answering options "agree/strongly agree" were combined to the category 'agreement'.

    Time frame: 24 hours post single application

  7. The Assessment of Overall Tolerance for Each Participant

    The gynaecologist and dermatologist made an assessment of tolerance of each subject for each IP based on measured parameters, any clinical signs of irritancy observed and subject's perception of vulvovaginal and oral mucosal tolerance by using the 5-point scale: very good, good, acceptable, poor, very poor.

    Time frame: 24 hours post single application

  8. The Assessment of Oral Mucosal Tolerance

    The dermatologist made an assessment of oral mucosal tolerance based on the signs and symptoms of erythema, erosions, oedema and any other signs of clinical irritancy by using the 5-point scale: 1 (none), 2 (slight), 3 (minimal), 4 (moderate), 5 (severe).

    Time frame: Baseline, 30 minutes, 2 hours and 24 hours post application

  9. Overall Proportion of Participants With Adverse Events/Adverse Device Effects (AEs/ADEs)

    Overall proportion of participants with Adverse Events/Adverse Device Effects (AEs/ADEs) i.e. the occurrence of one of more AE/ADE per participant.

    Time frame: 10 weeks

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Feb 2023 to primary completion in May 2023, 2 months.

Results were first posted in Feb 2025, 1 year 9 months after primary completion.

Of 59 interventional studies with no phase under Dyspareunia, half reached primary completion within 33 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 38. This study's 2 months is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Feb 11, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
