What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Subjects With at Least One Adverse Event During the Study

    An adverse event is any untoward, undesired, unplanned clinical event in the form of signs. symptoms, disease, or laboratory or physiological observations occurring in a human being participating in a clinical study with a sponsor study drug, regardless of causal relationship.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  2. Number of Subjects With at Least One Possibly Treatment-Related Adverse Event During the Study

    The causal relation between an adverse event and the study drug was determined by the investigator on the basis of his or her clinical judgment. A possibly treatment-related adverse event is an event that may be explained by administration of the study drug or by the subjects's clinical state or other agents/therapies.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  3. Number of Subjects With at Least One Probably Treatment-Related Adverse Event During the Study

    The causal relation between an adverse event and the study drug was determined by the investigator on the basis of his or her clinical judgment. A probably treatment-related adverse event is an event most likely to be explained by administration of the study drug rather than the subjects's clinical state or other agents/therapies.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  4. Number of Subjects With at Least One Definitely Treatment-Related Adverse Event During the Study

    The causal relation between an adverse event and the study drug was determined by the investigator on the basis of his or her clinical judgment. A definitely treatment-related adverse event is an event that can be fully explained by administration of the study drug.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  5. Number of Subjects With at Least One Serious Adverse Event During the Study

    A serious adverse event (SAE) is any adverse event (AE) occurring at any dose that meets 1 or more of the following criteria: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization; results in a persistent or significant disability or incapacity; results in cancer; results in a congenital anomaly or birth defect. Important medical events not described above may be considered SAEs when based on appropriate medical judgment.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  6. Number of Subjects With at Least One Life-Threatening Adverse Event During the Study

    A life-threatening AE is any AE that places the subject at immediate risk of death from the event as it occurred.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  7. Number of Subjects With Adverse Events That Led to Discontinuation From the Study

    The total number of subjects who withdrew from the study due to an adverse event irrespective of the causal relation between the AE and the study drug as determined by the investigator

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  8. Number of Subjects With Any Thrombotic or Thromboembolic Adverse Event During the Study

    Examples include deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, cerebral thrombosis, acute renal cortical necrosis, central retinal artery and vein obstruction.

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

  9. Number of Subjects Who Died During the Study

    Number of subjects who died, for any reason, during the study

    Measured: Up to 27 menstrual cycles

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tranexamic acid tablets (XP12B) in people with Menorrhagia and Heavy Menstrual Bleeding, run by Ferring Pharmaceuticals at 59 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 59 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Jan 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Subjects With at Least One Adverse Event During the Study (time frame: Up to 27 menstrual cycles). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00113568, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jun 2010.
