Inclusion Criteria:
Age 21 through 45 years (inclusive) at Screening
Able and willing to provide written informed consent
Able and willing to comply with all study procedure requirements, including, clinical and laboratory assessments, vaginal and rectal examinations, urine and blood testing, as well as attendance at all scheduled study visits
In general good health at Screening and Enrollment as determined by the Investigator of Record (IoR)/ or designee
Negative pregnancy test at Screening and Enrollment
HIV-negative at Screening and Enrollment
Able and willing to provide adequate locator information
Willingness to use study-provided male condoms for the duration of study participation for penetrative intercourse
Per participant report at Screening, regular menstrual cycles with at least 21 days between menses (does not apply to participants who report using a progestin-only method of contraception at screening, e.g., Depo-Provera, progesterone-containing IUDs or extended use of oral contraceptives)
Per participant report at Enrollment, using an effective method of contraception and intending to use an effective method for the duration of study participation; effective methods include:
Per participant report at Screening, states a willingness to refrain from inserting any non-study vaginal or rectal products or objects into the vagina or rectum, including but not limited to, spermicides, female condoms, diaphragms, contraceptive vaginal rings, vaginal medications, menstrual cups, cervical caps (or any other vaginal barrier method), vaginal/rectal douches, enemas, non-study approved lubricants, sex toys (vibrators, dildos, etc.), and tampons for the duration of the study product use periods and for 24 hours prior to each scheduled study clinic visit.
Pap result consistent with Grade 0 according to the Female Genital Grading Table for Use in Microbicide Studies Addendum 1 to the Division of AIDS (DAIDS) Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events, Version 1.0, December 2004 (Clarification dated August 2009) or satisfactory evaluation of non-Grade 0 Pap result with no treatment required per clinical judgment of IoR or designee in the 12 calendar months prior to the Enrollment Visit
At Screening, participant agrees not to take part in other research studies involving drugs, medical devices, or vaginal/rectal products for the duration of study participation (including the time between the Screening and Enrollment visits)
Participants in the biopsy subset must also meet the following criteria at Screening to be eligible for inclusion:
Willing to abstain from inserting anything into the vagina or rectum for 72 hours prior to and following the collection of these samples, including vaginal and rectal intercourse
Willing to restrict the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), aspirin and/or other drugs that are associated with the increased likelihood of bleeding following mucosal biopsy collection for 72 hours prior to and following the collection biopsies
Exclusion Criteria:
Participant report of any of the following:
Laboratory abnormalities at Screening greater than or equal to a Grade 2*:
Urinary tract infection (UTI) at Screening and/or Enrollment Note: Otherwise eligible participants diagnosed with UTI during Screening will be offered treatment and may be enrolled after completing treatment and all symptoms have resolved. If treatment is completed and symptoms have resolved within 42 days of obtaining informed consent, the participant may be enrolled.
Pelvic inflammatory disease or an STI or RTI requiring treatment per current World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines at Screening and/or Enrollment
Clinically apparent Grade 2 or higher pelvic** and/or rectal*** examination finding (observed by study staff) at Screening and/or Enrollment Note: Cervical bleeding associated with speculum insertion and/or specimen collection judged to be within the range of normal according to the clinical judgment of the IoR/designee is considered expected non-menstrual bleeding and is not exclusionary.
Note: Otherwise eligible participants with exclusionary pelvic and/or rectal examination findings may be enrolled/randomized after the findings have improved to a non-exclusionary severity grading or resolved. If improvement to a non-exclusionary grade or resolution is documented within 42 days of providing informed consent, the participant may be enrolled.
Any other condition that, in the opinion of the IoR/designee, would preclude informed consent, make study participation unsafe, complicate interpretation of study outcome data, or otherwise interfere with achieving the study objectives
