About this study

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, dose-ranging study of female subjects with moderate to severe Acute Vulvovaginal Candidiasis. Subjects will be randomized to either the investigational arm (SCY-078) with 5 different dose regiments ranging from 1 to 3 days of treatment or to the active-control arm (fluconazole) for 1 day of treatment. After randomization subjects may be seen on study Day 3 (on site visit for PK subjects) , Day 10 (±2,) and Day 25 (+4).
