A Phase three randomized, double-blinded, study to asses the efficacy and safety of oxytocin gel in postmenopausal women with vaginal atrophy due to Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause GSM.
A Phase three randomized, double-blinded, placebo- controlled study to asses the efficacy and safety of oxytocin gel in postmenopausal women with vaginal atrophy due to Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause GSM. This study shall include 242 subjects. After screening , subject who meet eligibility criterial will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive wither study intervention or placebo to be applied once daily for sixty days and followed up extra fifteen days. objectives is to evaluate the efficacy and effectiveness of topical oxytocin gel compared with placebo in improving postmenopausal vaginal atrophy symptoms in women with GSM , also assessing the safety and tolerability of topical oxytocin gel.

| MenOxy | Active Comparator | The investigational product will contain a Plastic tube containing 36 g of study product (gel) and a Vaginal calibrated plastic applicator for dose (1 ml) administration. The active constituent is oxytocin 600 IU/ml dissolved in a gel based on Hypromellose with a pH of 3.8. |
|
| Placebo | Placebo Comparator | The placebo gel will match the IP gel (Hypromellose) with a pH of 3.8, without oxytocin. |

| The mean change from the baseline to Day 60 of the severity of the Most Bothersome Symptom (MBS) self-assessment. | MBS is a moderate to severe symptom identified as the most bothersome by the subject at baseline, recorded as none, mild, moderate, or severe was analyzed using the score values of 0, 1, 2, or 3, respectively. Symptoms include vaginal dryness, vaginal/vulvar irritation/itching, dysuria, vaginal pain (dyspareunia), or bleeding associated with sexual activity. | 60 days |
| The mean change from the baseline to Day 60 of the vaginal pH | Vaginal pH as measured by a pH strip applied directly to the lateral wall of the vagina, recording the pH value (to one decimal) according to the comparison to the color chart. | 60 days |
| The mean change from the baseline to Day 60 of the Vaginal Maturation Index (VMI) | VMI is calculated using the Meisels'(Meisels, 1967) formula: (0 * Parabasal Cells) + (0.5 * Intermediate Cells) + (1 * Superficial Cells). | 60 days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The mean changes in MBS severity, pH, and VMI from the baseline to Days 30 and 75 | Days 30 and 75 | |
| The percentage of subjects identified as Responders on days 60 and 75. | A responder is a subject meeting all the following criteria: at least 1 point improvement (decrease) in the severity of the MBS, at least a 0.5-point decrease in the vaginal pH, and at least 20% improvement in the VMI. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The mean change in weight from baseline to days 60 and 75, and BMI from baseline to day 75. | Days 60 and 75 | |
| The number of subjects reporting changes in appetite (satiety/hunger) on days 30, 60, and 75. | Days 30, 60 and 75 |
