A Controlled Trial of Gabapentin in Vulvodynia: Biological Correlates of Response
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Placebo oral capsule and Gabapentin for Vulvodynia. Completed, enrolled 230 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
The Specific aims of this project are to (1) test the prediction that pain from tampon insertion (primary outcome measure) is lower in PVD patients when treated with gabapentin compared to when treated with placebo. Secondary outcome measures include intercourse pain and 24-hour pain and (2)perform a mechanism-based analysis of gabapentin effectiveness, and to gain insight into the underlying pathophysiology of subtypes of PVD that may lead to more specific treatment options.
