Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Amenorrhea [The last 28 days of treatment period 1]

    Amenorrhea was defined as menstrual blood loss (MBL) < 2 mL during the last 28 days of treatment. The evaluation of MBL was based on the Alkaline hematin (AH) method.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB) Response [The last 28 days of treatment period 1 and treatment period 2]

    HMB was defined as MBL <80.00 mL during the last 28 days of treatment and >50% reduction compared to baseline (assessed by the AH method).

  2. Time to Onset of Amenorrhea [In treatment period 1 (12 weeks) and in treatment period 2 (12 weeks)]

    Onset of amenorrhea was defined by the first day for which the MBL for all subsequent 28-day periods up to the end of a treatment period was <2 mL (amenorrhea defined similar to primary endpoint and assessed by the AH method).

  3. Time to Onset of Controlled Bleeding [In treatment period 1 (12 weeks) and in treatment period 2 (12 weeks)]

    Onset of controlled bleeding was defined by the first day for which the MBL for all subsequent 28-day periods up to the end of a treatment period was <80.00 mL (assessed by the AH method).

  4. Number of Participants With Absence of Bleeding (Spotting Allowed) [The last 28 days of treatment period 1 and treatment period 2]

    Absence of bleeding was defined as no scheduled or unscheduled bleeding (spotting allowed) during the last 28 days of a treatment period based on subjects' daily responses to the UF-DBD (Uterine Fibroid Daily Bleeding Diary).

  5. Number of Participants by Endometrial Biopsy Main Results (Majority Read, Main Diagnosis) [Up to 36 weeks]

    Number of participants with endometrial histology findings, e.g. benign endometrium, malignant neoplasm, hyperplasia without atypia, hyperplasia with atypia and endometrial polyps.

  6. Change From Baseline of Endometrial Thickness [In treatment period 1 (12 weeks) and in treatment period 2 (12 weeks)]

    Ultrasound examinations were performed. Endometrial thickness was measured in the medio-sagittal section as double-layer in millimeters. Summary statistics for change from baseline in endometrial thickness was provided in below table.

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details The study was conducted at 87 study centers in USA, Japan, Czech Republic, Russia, and Ukraine between 24-Jan-2018 (first participant first visit) and 30-Jun-2021 (last participant last visit).
Pre-assignment Detail Overall, 481 participants were screened, of them, 378 (78.6%) participants were not randomized to treatment. The majority of these (n=286) were screen failures. Of the 103 participants who were randomized, 91 participants received study treatment. Full analysis set (FAS) consisted of all randomized subjects, excluding randomized subjects who did not start treatment period 1 (never received study drug) due to the study being closed prematurely (7 [6.8%]), and included 96 (93.2%) subjects.
