Study summary

The aim of this study is to assess whether IW-3300 is safe and works for the treatment of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). The main question the study aims to answer is whether IW-3300 helps bladder pain and other symptoms (for example, bladder burning, pressure and discomfort). Subjects will be assigned to receive either the study drug or placebo by chance.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-assignment, 12-week, adaptive design study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of IW-3300 in subjects with IC/BPS. Subjects will be randomized 1:1:1 to IW-3300 100 µg, IW-3300 300 µg, or matching placebo administered as a rectal foam. The study has 4 periods, which are the screening (up to 30 days), pretreatment (up to 21 days), study treatment (12 weeks), and follow-up periods (2 weeks) which consists of 7 onsite study visits and 1 follow-up phone call. Subjects will administer the study drug at home for 12 weeks.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline (CFB) in weekly average of daily bladder pain (which can include sensations like burning, pressure, and/or discomfort) at its worst at Week 12

    Subject assessment of bladder pain at its worst will be reported via a daily electronic Diary (eDiary)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. CFB in weekly average of a burning sensation in the bladder at its worst at Week 12

    Subject assessment of bladder burning sensation at its worst will be reported via an eDiary

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  2. CFB in weekly average of a pressure sensation in the bladder at its worst at Week 12

    Subject assessment of bladder pressure sensation at its worst will be reported via an eDiary

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  3. CFB in weekly average of discomfort in the bladder at its worst at Week 12

    Subject assessment of discomfort in the bladder at its worst will be reported via an eDiary

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  4. CFB in Genitourinary Pain Index (GUPI) Pain subscale score at Week 12

    The GUPI assesses the degree of symptoms in both men and women with genitourinary pain complaints over the last week, including experience of pain or discomfort in various areas, frequency of pain/discomfort, average pain/discomfort, frequency of urinary symptoms, and quality of life (QoL) impact

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  5. Frequency of Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurring in ≥2% of subjects

    Frequency of TEAEs occurring in ≥2% of subjects

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  6. Overall frequency of TEAEs by severity grade

    Overall frequency of TEAEs by severity grade

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12
