Brief summary

Evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of WC2031 200 mg tablets taken orally once a day for 7 days versus Vibramycin (doxycycline) 100 mg capsules taken orally twice a day for 7 days, for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis infection. Primary efficacy endpoint is microbiological cure at Day 28. Safety assessments are adverse events, changes in vital signs and laboratory test results.

Interventions

DRUGDoxycyline Hyclate tablet

200 mg tablet, once daily for 7 days

DRUGVibramycin (doxycyline hyclate) capsule

Outcome results

Primary

Microbiological Cure Rate

Percentage of Subjects in mITT Population with Microbiological Cure defined as a negative result for C. trachomatis as determined by GP AC2 NAAT (Gen-Probe Aptima Combo 2 Nucleic Acid Amplification Test) at Day 28

Time frame: Day 28

Population: mITT Population - all randomized subjects who had positive NAAT for C. trachomatis at Baseline and took at least one dose of study drug.

ArmMeasureValue (NUMBER)
Doxycycline HyclateMicrobiological Cure Rate94.9 percentage of participants cured
VibramycinMicrobiological Cure Rate94.6 percentage of participants cured
Comparison: The planned sample size of 480 randomized subjects ensured that approximately 200 subjects per group were included in the primary efficacy analyses. The 20% rate of exclusion was to account for subjects who had a negative test for urogenital C. trachomatis at the Baseline visit.95% CI: [-4.6, 5.1]
