Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether dapivirine gel 4789 is safe for daily use by healthy women in South Africa.
Detailed Description: To reduce the influence of adherence as a factor in the interpretation of efficacy results, IPM is considering using a DOT (Directly Observed Therapy) based method for vaginal microbicide gel delivery in a future Phase III study. IPM has denoted this DOT based method as Daily Monitored Adherence (DMA). IPM014B is a Phase I/II study designed: (1) to assess and compare the safety of a once daily application of Dapivirine Gel 4789, 0.05% 2.5g and a matching vehicle placebo gel; (2) to assess the acceptability of a once daily application of Dapivirine gel 4789, 0.05% 2.5g and a matching vehicle placebo gel; and (3) to assess the feasibility of utilizing the DMA method for a large-scale phase III efficacy study.
