Active clinical trials for "Leiomyoma"

Phase III, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, long-term study investigating the efficacy and safety of the 5mg and 10mg doses of PGL4001 for the treatment of uterine myoma.

The ULTRA study is a single-arm trial of 100 premenopausal women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who undergo treatment with the Acessa device. The Acessa device is a new FDA approved minimally invasive treatment for uterine fibroids that uses radiofrequency energy to destroy fibroid tissue. The fibroids then shrink and symptoms are significantly improved. The radiofrequency energy is delivered to the fibroids during an outpatient surgical procedure. There is minimal blood loss and pain and women return to the usual activities 5-9 days after the Acessa procedure. The investigators will evaluate changes in fibroid-related symptoms from before the Acessa treatment to 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months after Acessa treatment. The investigators will also assess operative outcomes including procedure duration, complications, blood loss, post-operative pain, and the time to return to usual activities. The investigators will determine long-term efficacy of Acessa by evaluating the rate of re-treatment for symptomatic fibroids after the Acessa procedure. Study participants will be recruited at 5 sites within the UC Fibroid Network: UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Los Angeles, UC San Diego, and UC San Francisco. UC San Francisco will serve as the Coordinating Center for the trial with oversight of all scientific and administrative aspects of the study. All study data will be stored securely in a HIPAA compliant, secure database monitored by the UC San Francisco Coordinating Center. A data safety and monitoring board will oversee participant safety and protection.

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.

On the basis of empirical evidence and clinical practice, the investigators have developed a formula called Tumor-shrinking Decoction (TSD) used in the treatment of uterine fibroids (UFs). The investigators preliminary clinical observation has demonstrated the benefits of TSD in improving UFs. TSD is composed of 15 individual Chinese medicines: Astragalus Membranaceus, Semen Coicis, Poria, Curcuma longa L, and Fritillaria Thunbergii Miq, Cassia twig, Pollen typhae, Resina draconis, Lithospermum erythrorhizon, Halloysitum Rubrum, Rhizoma Corydalis processed with vinegar, Hirudo, Calcined corrugated sub , Oyster Shell and Laminaria Japonica Aresch. It is hypothesized that TSD can effectively reduce the fibroid size and improve the symptoms associated with UFs and the greater anti-tumor potency of TSD is associated with higher therapeutic doses. To test this hypothesis, one 16-week, double-blind, randomized, two-dose trial will be conducted in patients with symptomatic UFs to determine whether the high dose (217 g/day) of TSD could produce significantly greater effects in reducing the fibroid size and improving its related symptoms and biochemical profiles compared to the lower dose (69 g/day).

Local anesthetics (LA) are increasingly used for postoperative pain management. Speicifically, several studies have found benefit of LA injected intra-abdominally following abdominal hysterectomy. However, it remains unclear whether the pain relief seen is due to local anesthetic mechanisms within the abdominal cavity or through systemic absorption. The aim of this study is to assess whether lidocaine administered intravenously has similar analgesic efficacy as the same dose administered intra-abdominally in patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy. All patients would have rescue analgesia using the patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pump with morphine in order to achieve adequate pain management during 24 h.

This is a multicentre, Phase III, efficacy and safety open-label study with PGL4001 10mg once daily for 3 months, blinded towards the administration of progestin or placebo after end of PGL4001 treatment.

This is the long-term extension of a phase III, efficacy and safety open-label (protocol PGL09-026) with PGL4001 10mg tablets once daily for three months, blinded towards the administration of progestin or placebo tablets after end of PGL4001 treatment. This extension study consists of three periods of 3 months open-label PGL4001 treatment, each followed by ten days of double-blind treatment with progestin or placebo and then a period without treatment.

A study of 3 doses of Progenta versus placebo versus Lucron Depot for treatment of leiomyomata.

Two (2) dose levels of Proellex or placebo will be administered once-daily for up to 91 days. Following screening and a pre-treatment endometrial biopsy, subjects will be followed monthly for the three month treatment phase.

The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacodynamics of leuprorelin gelatin free formulation (GF) to leuprorelin gelatin containing formulation (GC) in female subjects with uterine fibroids.
