About this study

Official title: Characterization and Treatment Pathways of Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB)

This is an observational study in which patient data from the past of females with heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is studied.

  • HMB describes menstrual periods with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding. Women concerned may not be able to maintain their usual activities during their period. Thus, HMB can reduce the quality of life and may lead to other medical problems. It is described that up to 30 of 100 women ask doctors for help concerning HMB during their fertile years. HMB is often not recognized and treated timely. In addition, there is little information about characteristics of women with HMB and real-world data on available treatments are missing.
Read more

Despite the availability of non-invasive therapeutic options, for some women with severe HMB, surgical treatments (also called invasive) may be needed that can lead to infertility.

  • In this study researchers want to learn more about:
  • the percentage of women diagnosed with HMB
  • characteristics of these women like age at diagnosis or medical problems
  • treatment pathways of women with HMB in usual care

Regarding treatment pathways, the researchers are especially interested in:

  • the percentage of women who use different therapeutic options over time
  • the percentage of women receiving invasive treatment for HMB after they received treatment as recommended by guidelines versus those not treated as recommended
  • To do this, researchers will collect information from five observational healthcare databases. Data will be from the year 2000 up to 2020.
  • Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are planned in this study.
  • In future, this information shall help to identify women with HMB and to learn what information may predict if invasive treatment will be needed later on.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence rates of women diagnosed with HMB per year

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  2. Incidence rates of women diagnosed with HMB over the entire study period

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  3. Proportion of women receiving a diagnosis of HMB over the entire study period

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  4. Patient characteristics of women with a diagnosis of HMB

    Characterize demographics, co-morbidities, co-medications, procedures.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  5. Comorbidities of women with a diagnosis of HMB

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  6. Treatment pathways of multiple therapeutic options

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  7. Frequency of guideline-compliant treatment for HMB

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  8. Patient characteristics

    Characterise women with guideline-compliant versus non-guideline compliant treatment.

    Measured: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020

  9. Frequency/incidence of future invasive treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heavy Menstrual Bleeding, run by Bayer at 1 site in Germany.

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 19 inclusion and 1 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 27 Jul 2023. 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 Germany. 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?

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?

Incidence rates of women diagnosed with HMB per year (time frame: Retrospective analysis from 2000 to 2020). The study lists 9 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 27 Jul 2023.
