Overview

The purpose of this actual use trial (AUT) is to evaluate if participants can appropriately select and use the study product [Cialis over the counter (OTC)] using the labeling and the mandatory health survey assessment (HSA) for duration of 4-months.

Description

This will be an open-label 4-month AUT of tadalafil 5 mg tablet in men who are interested in an OTC treatment for erectile dysfunction. The open-label study will enroll approximately 2,250 participants who qualify for treatment based on the data they enter into the HSA of which an estimated 1000 participants will ultimately proceed to the use phase.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Participants will be included in Part II (enrolment phase) if they are:

  1. Male or female, 16 years of age or older
  2. Living in the US (Since this study will be conducted remotely, it is important to assure that all participants reside in this country.)

Participants will be included in Part III (use phase) if they:

  1. Are male (sex assigned at birth)
  2. Are at least 18 years of age
  3. Complete the HSA with a purchase code for Cialis OTC
  4. Purchase the study product

Exclusion Criteria:

Below participants will be excluded from Part II:

  1. Participant lives in the state of Massachusetts (Massachusetts state law requires an application to the State Board of Pharmacy in order to get authorization to distribute the study product to participants who live there.)
  2. Participant 18 years of age or older is unable or unwilling to show a current government-issued identification (ID) in order to verify identity and age
  3. Participant cannot read, speak, and understand English
  4. Participant has participated in another health-related market research study, product label study, or clinical trial in the past 12 months
  5. Participant has ever participated in a research study about a medicine for erectile dysfunction

  7. Participant, or someone else in the household is a healthcare professional, works as a part of a health care practice, or has been trained as a healthcare professional
  8. Participant, or someone else in the household is employed by a market research or advertising company

  10. Participants will be told that if they need corrective lenses to read, they must have them when the remote Enrollment Interview is conducted (Part II). If they do not, they will not be allowed to participate. This exclusion will be implemented during the remote Subgroup Identification Interview (SGI) Interview where the participants will be re-screened.
  11. Participants who are considered minors, according to the law in the state where they reside, who do not have a parent or guardian present and willing to electronically sign permission to allow the minor to participate in the SGI and Enrollment Interviews. A participant is considered a minor in all states if they are 16-17 years of age. Additionally, participants 18 years of age in Alabama or Nebraska, and participants 18-20 years of age in Mississippi are also considered minors.
  12. Participant is not willing or able to attend/participate in the Enrollment Interview remotely
  13. Participant, or someone else in the household, has participated in this study (only one member of each household will be allowed to participate)
  14. Participant does not provide verbal permission to video record study interviews
  15. If necessary to obtain approximately 30% low health literacy (LHL), participants who are not LHL will be screened out

Below participants will be excluded from Part III:

  1. Participants who were not excluded for DNU conditions in the HSA, but were determined in the Medical Assessment to have any of the DNU conditions listed on the DFL
  2. Participants who do not sign the Informed Consent Document (ICD) or if the parent or guardian of a minor does not sign the ICD. (Parent/guardian refusal applies to males who are 18 years of age or older but considered minors in the state where they reside.)
