About this study

Official title: Study Assessing the Effects on Endometrium and Breast of a Standardized Isoflavone Extract(Phytosoya) in Post Menopausal Women.

The main objective of this study is to determine the effects on the endometrium and breast of 70 mg daily dose of isoflavones.

Read the detailed description

This is an international multicentre open study, assessing the innocuity on breast and endometrium of a 70 mg daily dose of isoflavones standardized extract (Phytosoya).

This study follows the European guidelines :one-year treatment duration, biopsy and mammography performed at the beginning and at the end of the trial, recruitment of enough subjects in order to have 300 patients with an evaluable biopsy after one year of treatment.

After 3 weeks of screening phase, the patients will be taken Phytosoya during 52 weeks. At the end of the first year of treatment, an endometrial biopsy, an endovaginal ultrasonography, a mammography, breast ultrasounds, a clinical examination and a biological assessment will be performed.

In addition, it will be proposed to patients to continue treatment during 2 additional years. At the end of the third year,the same examinations will be performed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing soy isoflavone in people with Postmenopause, run by Laboratoires Arkopharma.

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 4 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Dec 2005. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

- Endometrial innocuity (endometrial biopsy result). 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 8 Dec 2005.
