Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Healthy female between 18 and 65 years of age
  • Subject must be able to understand, read and sign the study specific informed consent forms after the nature of the study has been fully explained to her
  • Subject is indicated for myomectomy or polypectomy
  • Subject exhibits intrauterine polyps and/or submucous myomas which meet one of the following criteria. In cases of subjects with multiple intrauterine pathology, classification is based as follows:
  • All polyps
  • All Type 0, Type 1 or Type 2 myomas ≤ 6 cm in diameter
  • Polyps plus Type 0, Type 1 or Type 2 myomas ≤6 cm in diameter

Who cannot join

  • Subject is pregnant
  • Subject has an Intrauterine Device (IUD) at the time of the procedure. A subject may be enrolled in the study if the IUD is removed prior to the treatment procedure
  • Subject is taking an anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication other than low dose aspirin
  • Active pelvic inflammatory disease or pelvic/vaginal infection
  • Subject has a known or suspected coagulopathy or bleeding disorder
  • Subject has a history of disease which increases the risk for fluid overload (i.e. significant cardiac, hepatic, or renal dysfunction)
  • Subject has other co-morbid condition(s) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could limit the subject's ability to participate in the study or impact the scientific integrity of the study

About this study

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of community gynecologist initiated treatment of intra-uterine polyps and submucosal fibroids with the MyoSure Hysteroscopic Tissue Removal System in a significantly sized patient population.

Read the detailed description

Between 500 and 600 subjects will be enrolled in a prospective, multi-center registry study. Approximately 100 of these cases will be completed in an office setting, with the remaining 400-500 cases completed in a hospital outpatient or ambulatory surgery center. Subjects will undergo a hysteroscopic tissue removal procedure to remove intrauterine polyps and submucosal fibroids.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MyoSure Tissue Removal SystemDevice

    Also called Myomectomy procedure

    The MyoSure Tissue Removal Device consists of a hand-held tissue removal device comprising a mechanical drive assembly connected to a drive cable and associated control box on one end, and a 3 mm shaft on the other end of the device. The shaft is approximately 12 cm long and equipped with an open channel that houses an oscillating blade. When the side channel is exposed to target tissue and the motor is activated, the oscillating blade will cut the tissue within the channel. Once cut, the tissue travels down the center of the 3mm shaft via suction coupled to the proximal end of the tissue removal device, and is trapped in a vacutainer bottle.

Intrauterine pathology, myomectomyExperimentalSubjects with intrauterine fibroids and/or polyps will undergo intrauterine pathology removal using the MyoSure Tissue Removal System; myomectomy procedure.
Receives: Device: MyoSure Tissue Removal System

What is being measured

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

  1. Procedure Efficacy

    Mean percent of pathology removed, based on hysteroscopic assessment immediately following completion of the treatment procedure

    Measured: 1 hour post treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Subjects That Achieve 100% Removal of Target Pathology

    Percentage of subjects that achieve 100% removal of target pathology, as determined by hysteroscopic exam following the treatment procedures.

    Measured: 1 hour post treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MyoSure Tissue Removal System in people with Uterine Fibroids and Polyps, run by Hologic, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 7 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 13 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 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?

Procedure Efficacy (time frame: 1 hour post treatment). 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 13 Sep 2017.
