Clinical Trial Summary

This is a single-center, three-part, Phase 1 study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ENG, removability, safety, and tolerability of Casea S pellets inserted subdermally in healthy women of reproductive age. The goal is to select for further investigation a dose of Casea S that is both safe and has a PK profile consistent with contraceptive protection for at least 78 weeks.


Clinical Trial Description

In Part 1 of this study, four women will each have a single Casea S pellet (22.2 mg ENG) inserted into the inner aspect of the non-dominant upper arm after a negative urine pregnancy test. The insertion site and pellet location will be verified, marked, and photographed. ISRs and AEs will be assessed. In Part 2 of this study, eight women will each have two Casea S pellets (44.4 mg ENG) inserted into the inner aspect of the non-dominant upper arm. The insertion site and pellet location will be verified, marked, and photographed. ISRs and AEs will be assessed. Based on PK modeling from Parts 1 and 2, investigators will select one or more doses of Casea S for Part 3. In Part 3 of this study, approximately 18 women will each have Casea S pellets (range 1-3 pellets) inserted into the inner aspect of the non-dominant upper arm. The insertion site and pellet location will be verified, marked, and photographed. ISRs and AEs will be assessed. ;
