Active clinical trials for "Menorrhagia"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of XP12B in women with heavy menstrual bleeding associated with menorrhagia.

This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the comparative effectiveness of Levonorgestrel Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS) to Tranexamic Acid (TA) for the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) in women with clinically-significant fibroids.

The purpose of this feasibility study is to find out if two clotting factor products, Eloctate [hemophilia A] and Alprolix [hemophilia B], can reduce the amount of menstrual bleeding in female hemophilia A and B carriers (14 years of age or older) who have severe or heavy bleeding. These products are FDA-approved for use in males with hemophilia A and B to prevent and treat bleeding. They are not approved specifically to reduce menstrual bleeding, but may be useful for this purpose. Both products have an "extended half life" which means they circulate in the body longer than other FVIII or FIX products. The study team will gather additional information about the safety of these drugs and how well they work. The results of this feasibility study will provide information for an upcoming larger study.

The goal of this multicenter prospective observational study and registry of U.S. adolescents and young adults with heritable bleeding disorders is to determine the bleeding outcomes, satisfaction, hemostatic parameter changes, and patient reported quality of life after 6 months of use of either of two commonly used hormonal treatments for menstrual suppression - levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) and norethindrone acetate (NETA). Under this application we will compare the two treatments and compare outcomes after LNG-IUD treatment results to a control group without a bleeding disorder, with the goal of determining the benefits and expected outcomes of these treatment options for this population.

In the present study, we test the ability of AMSS as a simple tool to identify women with HMB who have ID/ IDA. We will compare the AMSS score to patients' hemoglobin and serum ferritin in women with self-reported HMB and women with normal menstrual flow.

This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of elagolix alone and in combination with estradiol/norethindrone acetate for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women.

To compare the efficacy of a combined contraceptive vaginal ring (NuvaRing) and oral Norethisterone Acetate in treatment of Idiopathic heavy menstrual bleeding during fertile age

Menorrhagia, considered a public health challenge and reported by 5 to 10% of adult women, is encountered even more frequently in adolescents. Surveys of school students in the United States (US) and Europe reported menorrhagia in 37% to 55% of adolescent females. Medical management of adolescent menorrhagia includes various formulations of hormonal therapy and the antifibrinolytic agent epsilon aminocaproic acid. Oral tranexamic acid (TA), a more potent antifibrinolytic agent used as standard therapy for menorrhagia in adult women and in adolescent women in Europe and Canada, was not previously available in the US. Subsequent to US FDA approval in November 2009 of a novel oral TA formulation to treat cyclic heavy menstrual bleeding in adult women, this medication is currently included in the treatment armamentarium for adult menorrhagia. There is currently no preliminary data available in the US about the clinical use of oral TA in an exclusive adolescent population with menorrhagia. Oral contraceptive pills (OCP) are considered standard therapy in the management of menorrhagia in teen-aged women. Oral TA has been shown to be more efficacious than progesterone-only hormonal therapy for menorrhagia in adult women. However, there is no data available comparing the efficacy of oral TA and combined OCP (COCP) in adult women or in adolescents with menorrhagia. The study hypothesis is that, in adolescent menorrhagia, oral TA will have comparable efficacy in reducing menstrual blood loss (MBL) and improving quality of life (QOL) when compared to the commonly prescribed COCP. This hypothesis was tested by comparing the efficacy of these two medications, in a prospective randomized crossover trial in post-menarchal young girls with menorrhagia.

This is an interventional, non-randomized, controlled, pilot study that explores a new approach to treat, Abnormal uterine bleeding-menometrorrhagia in women, being candidates for hysterectomy, based on tea infusion consumption of a mixture of two plants.

The objective of this study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Sonata® System in the treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids.
