Active clinical trials for "Leiomyoma"

The Emmy trial is set up to evaluate the safety and efficacy of uterine artery embolization (UAE) in comparison to hysterectomy for the treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids. UAE was considered equivalent to hysterectomy when at least 75% of patients had normalization of heavy menstrual blood loss after treatment.

The objective of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of asoprisnil in symptomatic women with abnormal uterine bleeding associated with uterine fibroids.

This research is being done to test new MRI methods called Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting and Q-space Trajectory Imaging in gynecological abnormalities. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if these new MRI methods can give additional information in characterizing gynecological tumors compared with conventional MRI.

The main objective of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of elagolix compared to placebo in reducing heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women. The primary hypothesis is that elagolix, compared to placebo, reduces HMB associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women.

Evaluation of diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound in uterine fibroid characterization compared with MRI using FIGO classification

Polyps, intracavitary myomas and retained products of conception (RPOC) are common benign intracavitary lesions of the uterus and frequently cause abnormal uterine bleeding or pain. In general, intracavitary lesions are treated by operative hysteroscopy with bipolar resectoscopic removal under general anaesthesia, performed in the theatre (OR). Potential problems with this approach are thermal damage and impairment of visibility due to loose tissue fragments necessitating multiple entries for tissue removal. Recently, lesion morcellation by hysteroscopy has been introduced as an alternative technique. Compared to the resectoscopic approach, morcellation is reportedly associated with a shorter total procedure time, smaller fluid deficit and number of insertions. A few trials also registered a higher success rate in completeness of resection. No significant differences in odds of surgical complications have been reported. Most hysteroscopic morcellators have diameters up to 8 mm, for which cervical dilation under general anaesthesia is usually needed. Recently, companies have developed hysteroscopic morcellators with smaller diameters, e.g. 6.3 mm for the 19 Fr. intrauterine BIGATTI Shaver (IBS®). This means less need for cervical dilation, and potential use without anesthesia. At this moment, there are no prospective studies available on feasibility of the 19 Fr. intrauterine BIGATTI Shaver (IBS®). Before implementing hysteroscopic morcellation in our department, we need a feasibility study assessing the method in standard conditions in the operation room or in ambulatory setting under sedation. Trial objectives: Assessment of the feasibility of hysteroscopic morcellation of benign uterine intracavitary lesions. The primary objective is to assess the completeness of hysteroscopic resection in patients undergoing the procedure under general anesthesia or sedation. Secondary objectives are to assess perioperative parameters as operation time, need for cervical dilation, adverse events, pain, operator satisfaction; to assess quality of tissue for histological examination; to assess postoperative complications and pain.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the superior efficacy versus placebo of OBE2109 alone and in combination with add-back therapy for the reduction of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women.

The purpose of this study is to determine the benefit of relugolix 40 milligrams (mg) once a day co-administered with estradiol (E2) 1 mg and norethindrone acetate (NETA) 0.5 mg compared with placebo for 24 weeks on heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids.

This is an extension study for women who have already received six months of treatment in the phase III clinical trial M12-815 (NCT02654054) or M12-817 (NCT02691494), and will evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of elagolix administered alone and in combination with estradiol/norethindrone acetate for an additional six months in the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids.

The purpose of this first multi-dose study in cancer patients is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase II dose (RP2D), characterize the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics profile. Once the MTD has been established and/or a RP2D chosen, the study will enroll patients into the expansion portion of the study.
