Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The goal of this Phase I clinical trial is to generate proof-of-concept data to demonstrate that a cervical cup in combination with vacuum application will create negative pressure on uterine cervical tissue, thereby creating immediate cervical stiffness in order to prevent cervical ripening that is associated with spontaneous preterm birth. Aim #1: Conduct a Phase I clinical study. 1A: Evaluate the ability of a cervical cup to improve cervical tissue physiology of uterine cervices in vivo for nonpregnant women. 1B: Evaluate the ability of a cervical cup to be safely placed and removed on uterine cervices in vivo for nonpregnant women.
