Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of PC-1005 gel when used as a rectal microbicide in HIV-uninfected men and women (cis or transgender) with a history of consensual receptive anal intercourse.

- At Screening, history of consensual receptive anal intercourse (RAI) at least once in their lifetime per participant report
- Willing to not take part in other research studies involving drugs, medical devices, genital or rectal products, or vaccines for the duration of study participation (including the time between Screening and Enrollment)
- Willing to follow abstinence requirements for the duration of study participation (See the protocol for additional information)
- For participants of childbearing potential: a negative pregnancy test at Screening and Enrollment
- For participants of childbearing potential: Per participant report at Enrollment, using an effective method of contraception and intending to use an effective method for the duration of study participation; these include:

- * As per the Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events Corrected Version 2.1, July 2017
- Note: Otherwise eligible participants with an exclusionary test result can be re-tested during the screening process. If a participant is re-tested and a non-exclusionary result is documented within 45 days of providing informed consent for screening, the participant may be enrolled.
- Known adverse reaction to latex or polyurethane (ever)
- Anticipated use of and/or unwillingness to abstain from the following medications during study participation:
- Anticoagulant medications
- Rectally-administered medications
- Known adverse reaction to any of the components of the study product
- Use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention within 1 month prior to Enrollment, and/or anticipated use and/or unwillingness to abstain from PrEP during trial participation
- Use of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for potential HIV exposure within the 3 months prior to Enrollment
- Condomless RAI and/or penile-vaginal intercourse with a partner who is known to be HIV-positive or whose status is unknown in the 6 months prior to Enrollment

- Participation in research studies involving drugs, medical devices, genital or rectal products, or vaccines within 30 days of the Enrollment Visit
- Gynecologic, genital, or rectal procedure (e.g., tubal ligation, dilation and curettage, piercing, hemorrhoidal resection, polyp removal) 60 days or less prior to Enrollment, or rectal biopsy, 7 days or less prior to Enrollment. Note: Colposcopy and cervical biopsies for evaluation of an abnormal Pap test as well as IUD insertion/removal are not
