Detailed Description
This is a single-center, open-label, pilot study to evaluate the efficacy of 14 days of CAMB dosing in subjects with fluconazole-resistant vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC).
Approximately 16 women with fluconazole-resistant VVC will be randomized to either 200 mg or 400 mg oral CAMB for 14 days. The primary objectives of this study are to assess the clinical cure rate, mycology eradication and responder outcome. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of 200 mg and 400 mg doses of oral CAMB.
