About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Parallel-group, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Multi-center Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Different Doses of BAY1002670 in Subjects With Uterine Fibroids Over 3 Months
The study is performed to assess the efficacy and safety of different doses of BAY1002670 in subjects with uterine fibroids. The dose-response relationship will be evaluated. Further, the study aims to establish a population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship for BAY1002670 in subjects with uterine fibroids. To assess the efficacy of BAY1002670 the interchangeability of menstrual pictogram and alkaline hematin method for the judgement of menstrual blood loss will be assessed.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Subjects With Amenorrhea, Defined as no Scheduled or Unscheduled Bleeding/Spotting After the End of the Initial Bleeding Episode Until End of Treatment
Amenorrhea was defined as no scheduled or unscheduled bleeding/spotting after the end of the initial bleeding episode until end of treatment. Dose-response curve was estimated based on the primary endpoint. The 4 parameters characterizing the dose-response curve were reported in other pre-specified endpoints below.
Measured: After end of the initial bleeding episode until the end of treatment, up to 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
Change in Volume of Menstrual Blood Loss Per 28 Days From Baseline During Treatment by Reference Period (Assessed by Alkaline Hematin Method)
In the below table, "N" signifies subjects who were evaluable for the specific parameter at that timepoint for each arm, respectively.
Measured: From baseline to end of follow-up
Time to Onset of Controlled Bleeding
Onset of controlled bleeding was defined by the first day, for which the MBL (assessed by MP, Version 2014) for all subsequent 28-day periods up to the end of the treatment period was less than 80 mL. Kaplan-Meier estimated time to onset of controlled bleeding (days) was reported.
Measured: During treatment period
Change in Volume of Largest Fibroid Compared to Baseline Measured by MRI
Pelvic Magnetic resonance imagings (MRI), without contrast agents, were performed for volume measurements of the uterus and fibroids preferably using 1.5 Tesla scanners or higher. Images were sent to the imaging core laboratory for evaluation. Volume measurements of the uterus and fibroids were performed centrally by independent radiologist(s).
Measured: From baseline to end of follow-up period

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing BAY1002670 in people with Leiomyoma, run by Bayer at 105 sites in 13 countries.
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 8 inclusion and 6 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 8 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 105 sites in United States, Japan, Germany, Czechia, Spain and 8 more countries. 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. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Dec 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?
Percentage of Subjects With Amenorrhea, Defined as no Scheduled or Unscheduled Bleeding/Spotting After the End of the Initial Bleeding Episode Until End of Treatment (time frame: After end of the initial bleeding episode until the end of treatment, up to 12 weeks). 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 NCT02131662, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 2017.
