About this study

Official title: A Single-arm, Open-label, Multicenter Phase 3 Study of the Contraceptive Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of the AG200-15 Transdermal Contraceptive Delivery System (TCDS)

Study of the efficacy of a contraceptive patch in 2100 healthy women for up to one year.

Read the detailed description

AG200-15 is used in a 4-week (28-day) treatment cycle: a patch is applied and replaced every 7 days for 3 consecutive weeks, followed by a 1-week "patch-free" period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age Regardless of BMI, Intent-to-treat (ITT) Dataset.

    The Pearl Index will serve as the primary contraceptive efficacy endpoint for evaluation of pregnancy rates for the study. Pearl Index is the number of on-therapy pregnancies times 1300 divided by the number of 28-day on-therapy cycles and is an estimate of the number of pregnancies per 100 woman-years of product use.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age With BMI < 25 kg/m2, ITT Dataset

    Contraception efficacy of AG200-15 by Pearl Index in subjects ≤ 35 years of age with BMI < 25 kg/m2, ITT dataset. Pearl Index is the number of on-therapy pregnancies times 1300 divided by the number of 28-day on-therapy cycles and is an estimate of the number of pregnancies per 100 woman-years of product use.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age With BMI ≥ 25 and < 30 kg/m2, ITT Dataset

    Contraception efficacy of AG200-15 by Pearl Index in subjects ≤ 35 years of age with BMI ≥ 25 and < 30 kg/m2, ITT dataset. Pearl Index is the number of on-therapy pregnancies times 1300 divided by the number of 28-day on-therapy cycles and is an estimate of the number of pregnancies per 100 woman-years of product use.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age With BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2, ITT Dataset

    Contraception efficacy of AG200-15 by Pearl Index in subjects ≤ 35 years of age with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2, ITT dataset. Pearl Index is the number of on-therapy pregnancies times 1300 divided by the number of 28-day on-therapy cycles and is an estimate of the number of pregnancies per 100 woman-years of product use.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing AG200-15 in people with Healthy, run by Agile Therapeutics.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 6 May 2020. 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. 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 25 Sep 2017). 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?

Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age Regardless of BMI, Intent-to-treat (ITT) Dataset. (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT02158572, 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 6 May 2020.
