About this study

Official title: Prospective One-arm Cohort Study of Dydrogesterone in the Treatment of Endometrial Polyps

This study is intended to observe the therapeutic effect of dydrogesterone on endometrial polyps and provide a reference for clinical treatment.

Read the detailed description

Endometrial polyps are a common female endometrial lesion.The long-term unrestrained exposure of estrogen to local tissue is one of the causes of polyp formation.Studies suggested that the progesterone can accelerate the regression rate of endometrial polyps due to its antiestrogenic effects.Based on this, investigators intended to observe the therapeutic effect of dydrogesterone on endometrial polyps and provide a reference for clinical treatment.

Being tested
Dydrogesterone

What participants receive

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

  • DydrogesteroneDrug

    Also called Duphaston

    The investigators give participants oral dydrogesterone(as described in arm description).After 3 cycles of treatment, the investigators evaluate the treatment effects.

Study groups in NCT03790215
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
cohort for treatmentExperimentalParticipants enrolled are given dydrogesterone tablet of 10mg twice a day, from day 15 to day 24 of the menstrual cycle over a period of 3 months.
Receives: Drug: Dydrogesterone

What is being measured

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

  1. Regression rate of endometrial polyps

    No evidence of polyps or the maximum dimensions of polyps are reduced by 1/3 or more under pelvic ultrasound

    Measured: three months after the starting of treatment

  2. Relapse rate of endometrial polyps

    Evidence of polyps or the maximum dimensions of polyps are larger during the follow-up of the regression group after treatment

    Measured: six months after the starting of treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Side effects

    Any side effects during the treatment

    Measured: three months after the starting of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dydrogesterone in people with Endometrial Polyp, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 22 Jan 2020. 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 China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Regression rate of endometrial polyps (time frame: three months after the starting of treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Jan 2020.
