About this study
Official title: A Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled, and Open-label, Active-controlled, Parallel-group Comparative Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of an Extended Flexible Regimen of BAY 86-5300 [0.02 mg Ethinylestradiol (β-CDC) and 3 mg Drospirenone] in the Patients With Endometriosis
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study (24-week treatment-comparison phase) with an open-label reference arm of active comparator (dienogest) followed by 28-week long-term treatment phase.
The primary objective of this study is to confirm the superiority of BAY86-5300 when administered with an extended flexible regimen for the treatment of endometriosis-associated pelvic pain in comparison to placebo in Japanese endometriosis patients within 24 weeks.
The secondary objective is to investigate the long-term safety of BAY86-5300 in patients treated with an extended flexible regimen for one year, and the bleeding pattern of BAY86-5300 when administered with an extended flexible regimen compared to dienogest.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change of pelvic pain from baseline period (8 weeks before start of treatment) to period of treatment (weeks 17-24)
The pelvic pain is measured as the severest pain marked by the participant on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Measured: Baseline period (8 weeks before start of treatment) and period of treatment (weeks 17-24)
Secondary outcomes (7)
Pelvic pain during menstrual or withdrawal bleeding period (except for dyspareunia and defecation pain)
Pelvic pain is the worst pain on a 0-10 scale rated by the participant.
Measured: Weeks 17-24 of treatment period
Pelvic pain during non-menstrual period and non-withdrawal bleeding period (except for dyspareunia and defecation pain)
Pelvic pain is the worst pain on a 0-10 scale rated by the participant.
Measured: Weeks 17-24 of treatment period
Dyspareunia
In case having sexual intercourse, dyspareunia pain is the worst pain on a 0-10 scale rated by the participant in the last 24 hours.
Measured: Weeks 17-24 of treatment period
Average of pain
The average of pain is the mean value of the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) value during the time frame calculated for each patient based on daily record of Patient Diary.
Measured: Weeks 17-24 of treatment period
Size of chocolate cyst
In case chocolate cyst is detected, size of chocolate cyst is a mean length (mm) of the longest axis and the short axis (crossing) of the largest chocolate cyst determined by transvaginal ultrasonography.
Measured: 24 weeks after taking the initial study medication
Endometrial thickness
Endometrial thickness is the thickest value (mm) of endometrium determined by transvaginal ultrasonography.
Measured: 24 weeks after taking the initial study medication
Number of days with spotting/bleeding
Number of days with spotting/bleeding is determined based on daily record of Patient Diary.
Measured: Up to 52 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing EE20/DRSP(BAY86-5300) and Dienogest in people with Endometriosis, run by Bayer at 32 sites in Japan.
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 4 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 18 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 32 sites in Japan. 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.
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?
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?
Change of pelvic pain from baseline period (8 weeks before start of treatment) to period of treatment (weeks 17-24) (time frame: Baseline period (8 weeks before start of treatment) and period of treatment (weeks 17-24)). 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 NCT01697111, 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 18 Feb 2016.
