Active clinical trials for "Menorrhagia"

This is a multi-center, single-arm, non-randomized, prospective clinical study. The clinical study is designed as a non-inferiority study to assess the effectiveness of the Aurora Endometrial Ablation System compared to an objective standard. Safety will be evaluated by determining the number and percentage of subjects who experience one or more of serious adverse events.

The primary objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of Test Product (Levosert) vs. Reference Product (Mirena® Bayer-Schering) based on the mean variation of menstrual blood loss volume in women with menorrhagia. The secondary objectives includes physical and gynaecological examinations, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests including hemoglobin and ferritin measurements, body weight and spontaneously reported adverse events were analysed and compared between Levosert and Mirena® treatment arms. Plasma levels of levonorgestrel (LNG) were also evaluated after various periods of time. The residual amounts of LNG in the devices were finally measured after withdrawal at completion of the study. Plasma levels of LNG and residual amounts of LNG were compared between the two treatment groups. Contraceptive effect of Levosert was estimated by Pearl Index.

Excessive menstrual loss (menorrhagia) is a common condition that affects women of reproductive age, and can result in anemia, chronic fatigue and lost wages from work. The traditional first line management involves treatment with oral contraceptives or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents. Many women ultimately undergo hysterectomy, a major operative procedure associated with increased costs, loss of feeling of womanhood, debilitating complications and on rare occasions, death. The newer global endometrial ablation (GEA) devices allow the destruction of the endometrial lining, without the removal of the uterus, in an ambulatory surgery setting. GEA offers a safe and effective alternative to hysterectomy with minimal risks and without unpleasant side-effects. Presently, global endometrial ablation is offered as an alternative to hysterectomy, after medical intervention has failed. This study will determine the role of global endometrial ablation in the initial management of menorrhagia. Women seeking treatment for menorrhagia will be randomized to either the medical treatment arm or the global endometrial ablation arm. This study will be the first to compare clinical efficacy and costs between oral contraceptive pills and global endometrial ablation in the initial management of menorrhagia and could potentially change the management of menorrhagia and impact millions of women who suffer from this condition.

This is a clinical study without a formal hypothesis. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the use of the Aurora Endometrial Ablation System in achieving a return to normal menstrual blood loss at 12 months post-treatment, in premenopausal women with menorrhagia due to benign causes for whom childbearing is complete or no longer wish to retain fertility.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the use of the Aurora Ablation System in reducing menstrual blood loss at 12 months post-treatment. The occurrence of adverse events will be assessed along with an assessment of the reduction of uterine bleeding as measured by a pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBLAC) or menstrual diary.

STOP-DUB is a multicenter randomized clinical trial that is assessing the efficacy and effectiveness of hysterectomy versus endometrial ablation (EA) for dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) in women for whom medical management has not provided relief.

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.

A randomised study including 236 women referred for essential menorrhagia to five university hospitals in Finland was conducted to compare the cost-effectiveness and the quality of life issues in the treatment of menorrhagia.Participants were randomly assigned to treatment with LNG-IUS (n=119), or hysterectomy (n=117), and were monitored for ten years. The primary outcome measures were health related quality of life (HRQoL), other measures of psychosocial well-being (anxiety, depression, sexual functioning), and costs.
