About this study

Official title: A Phase II Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of J867 Administered in Patients With Endometriosis

The objective of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of three doses of asoprisnil, compared to placebo, in the treatment of women with endometriosis.

Read the detailed description

Endometriosis, the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, is a progressive, estrogen-dependent disease that occurs in menstruating women of reproductive age. Although all major endometriosis therapies are effective for the treatment of pain, no single treatment is superior to others in terms of efficacy. The major drawbacks of the current medical therapies are severe side effects such as hot flushes and osteoporosis. The objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of asoprisnil 5, 10, and 25 mg tablets, compared to placebo, administered daily for 12 weeks to women with endometriosis, by assessing whether asoprisnil administration diminishes the pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, excessive bleeding, and analgesic use associated with this disease and lessens the subjects' perceived pain symptoms. Otherwise healthy women with surgically confirmed endometriosis will be enrolled.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Asoprisnil in people with Endometriosis, 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 9 inclusion and 5 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?

Pain (dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, pelvic pain) measured by daily diary (time frame: Mean change from baseline to Months 1, 2, 3). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.
