Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Actual Pregnancy Rate Compared to Expected Pregnancy Rate

    Conditional probabilities of pregnancy from the time of unprotected sex intercourse to treatment were estimated for up to 120 hours using Spline Cubic Estimation (Stone \& Koo, 1985) Pregnancy rate expected in the absence of emergency contraception is based on Trussell J, Rodriguez G, Ellertson C. New estimates of the effectiveness of the Yuzpe regimen of emergency contraception. Contraception. 1998;57(6):363-9.

    Measured: Within 120 hours of unprotected Intercourse

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.
