About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Uterine Fibroids
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subject is able to provide informed consent and must sign the Institutional Review Board approved Informed Consent Form.
- Pre-menopausal women age 30-50 years at time of enrollment
- Have been selected forUterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) prior to entry to the study.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patient has a history of pelvic malignancy
- Patient has an abnormal Pap smear within 12 months of the planned Uterine Fibroid Embolization procedure
- Patient with coexisting condition that might explain abnormal bleeding (including endometrial hyperplasia and adenomyosis) or pelvic pain (including endometriosis and ovarian cysts).
- Is at substantial risk for the need of organ transplantation, such as renal insufficiency.
- Patient has evidence of current or recent pelvic inflammatory disease or uterine infection.
- Patient with a severe contrast allergy or renal insufficiency that would represent a contradiction to the administration of iodine-based contrast agents.
- Patients unable to comply with the follow-up requirements of the study.

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Primary Endpoint
The primary effectiveness endpoint for this clinical trial is the proportion of subjects who have success, defined as 50% menstrual blood loss (MBL) reduction or less than 80 ml of MBL per cycle, evaluated by the Alkaline Hematin (AH) method, at 12 months.
