| NCT00358462 ↗ | Mycoplasma Genitalium Antibiotic Susceptibility and Treatment (MEGA) | Completed | National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) | Phase 3 | 2007-01-01 | The purpose of this study is to find out which of 2 different antibiotics, doxycycline or azithromycin, works best against germs that may cause nongonococcal urethritis. Study participants will include approximately 1200 men, 16 years of age or older, attending a sexually transmitted diseases clinic in Seattle, Washington with clinical signs of urethral inflammation (>=5PMNs/HPF on a Gram-stained slide prepared from urethral exudates and/or a visible urethral discharge upon examination). Urine specimens will be collected and tested for Mycoplasma genitalium and Ureaplasmas. Each participant will receive a blinded packet of study medication. Participants will answer an enrollment questionnaire and will also receive a log to complete between visits to record information about treatment adherence, side effects, symptoms, and sexual activity. All subjects will be asked to return for evaluation 3 weeks after the initial clinic visit. Subjects who test positive for M. genitalium and/or Ureaplasmas at the initial clinic visit will also be asked to return for a third study visit, 6 weeks following the initial clinic visit. During follow-up visits, participants will answer a follow-up questionnaire and will be re-evaluated for signs of urethritis. Those who were initially positive for M. genitalium and/or Ureaplasmas will be re-tested for these organisms. Study participants with signs and/or symptoms of urethritis or who test positive for M. genitalium or Ureaplasmas at the follow-up study visit will receive another blinded treatment packet containing the alternate medication. Those who require additional treatment at the 6-week visit will be asked to return for a fourth follow-up study visit at 9-10 weeks. Study participants who did not test positive for M. genitalium or Ureaplasmas at the initial clinic visit, but who continue to demonstrate signs and/or symptoms of infection at their single follow-up study visit will treated according to clinic standard of care (after the study clinician unblinds their randomly-assigned treatment regimen). |

| NCT00480532 ↗ | A Study of Continuous Oral Contraceptives and Doxycycline | Completed | Oregon Health and Science University | N/A | 2007-05-01 | The purpose of this study is to learn if the study drug, doxycycline, can decrease the amount of unplanned vaginal bleeding that women commonly experience when taking combined oral contraception (COC)- pills with estrogen and progestin - in a continuous fashion - no hormone-free week. The study drug, doxycycline, is an antibiotic used commonly for many conditions (i.e. acne, Chlamydia infections, pneumonia) and can be safely used on a daily basis. Doxycycline has been shown to decrease unplanned vaginal bleeding in progestin-only contraception but has not been studied in combined hormonal contraception. |
