About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Asoprisnil (J867) in Patients With Uterine Leiomyomata.

This study was designed to determine the safety and effectiveness of 3 asoprisnil doses compared to placebo, taken for 12 weeks by women with uterine fibroids.

Read the detailed description

No medical therapy is currently available for the long-term treatment of uterine fibroids. The objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of asoprisnil 5 mg, 10 mg and 25 mg, compared to placebo, taken daily for 12 weeks by women with one or more uterine fibroids, confirmed by ultrasound. Upon completion, subjects at participating sites will be allowed to enter an open-label extension study

    Measured: Treatment weeks 4, 8, 12 and Post-treatment months 3 and 6.

  2. Duration of amenorrhea

    Measured: Day 1 to 1st post treatment menses

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change from baseline in uterine size in gestational weeks.

    Measured: Treatment weeks 4, 8, 12 and Post-treatment months 3 and 6

  2. Number of Subjects in each treatment group achieving> or = to 20% reduction in uterine volume.

    Measured: Week 12 and final visit

  3. Percentage of days with bleeding.

    Measured: Day 1 through end of 1st post-treatment menses

  4. Changes in hematologic and iron parameters.

    Measured: Baseline to each visit

  5. Uterine fibroid symptom improvement.

    Measured: Baseline to each visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Asoprisnil in people with Leiomyoma, run by Abbott.

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 6 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 29 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Percent change from baseline in uterine volume and volume of the largest fibroid. (time frame: Treatment weeks 4, 8, 12 and Post-treatment months 3 and 6.). The study lists 2 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 NCT00160459, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 May 2008.
