New vaginal tablet could ease menopause discomfort

NCT ID NCT06197568

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a vaginal tablet called AZU-101 (lasofoxifene) in 90 postmenopausal women aged 45-60 who have vaginal atrophy, causing dryness and pain during sex. The tablet is given daily for 14 days to see if it is safe and can improve vaginal cell health and lower vaginal pH. Half the participants will get the active drug and half a placebo, and neither they nor the doctors will know which they received.
