    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Time to Any Delivery (Vaginal or Cesarean) During the First Hospital Admission [Interval from study drug administration to neonate delivery (average 24 hours)]

    2. Time to Active Labor During the First Hospital Admission [Interval from study drug administration to active labor (average 12 hours)]

      Active labor was defined as progressive cervical dilatation to 4 cm with any frequency of contractions OR rhythmic, firm, adequate quality uterine contractions causing progressive cervical change occurring at a frequency of 3 or more in 10 minutes and lasting 45 seconds or more.

    3. Incidence of Pre-delivery Oxytocin During the First Hospital Admission [At least 30 minutes after study drug removal]

      Percentage of participants in receipt of Oxytocin for induction after study drug removal.

    4. Incidence of Vaginal Delivery Within 12 Hours [Interval from study drug administration to vaginal delivery within 12 hours]

    5. Incidence of Any Delivery Within 24 Hours [Interval from study drug administration to delivery of neonate within 24 hours]

    6. Incidence of Any Delivery Within 12 Hours [Interval from study drug administration to delivery of neonate within 12 hours]

    7. Incidence of Vaginal Delivery Within 24 Hours [Interval from study drug administration to vaginal delivery within 24 hours]

    8. Incidence of Vaginal Delivery [Interval from study drug administration to vaginal delivery (average 24 hours)]

    9. Rate of Adverse Events [From study drug administration to hospital discharge (approximately 48-72 hours)]

      All adverse events were rated by the Investigator as mild, moderate or severe and classified as having no relationship, possible relationship or a probable relationship to the study drug.

    Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection MVI 200, Dinoprostone Vaginal Insert (DVI)
    Comments The analysis of the cesarean delivery rates during the first hospitalization was based on a between-treatment-group difference. If the upper limit of the asymptotic two-sided 95% confidence interval of the difference in event rates (MVI minus DVI) was less than the calculated non-inferiority margin (10% relative to the DVI rate, i.e., 0.1 times DVI rate), then MVI 200 would be considered non-inferior to DVI.
    Type of Statistical Test Non-Inferiority or Equivalence
    Comments A sample size of 675 subjects per group will provide a sufficient number of subjects to assess non-inferiority of MVI 200 with respect to rate of cesarean delivery, based on an alpha level of 5% and 80% power for a two-sided approach using a 10% non-inferiority limit (relative to the DVI rate), assuming a 30% rate of cesarean delivery in the DVI group compared to a 26% rate in the MVI 200 group.

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame All adverse events were followed until resolution or at least 30 days after discontinuation of the study drug, whichever occurred first.
    Adverse Event Reporting Description All adverse events occurring to the maternal-fetal unit (pre-delivery/ intrapartum), the mother (postpartum) or the neonate were recorded. Adverse events that resulted in a cesarean delivery were reported as serious adverse events as they were medically significant events that routinely prolonged the duration of hospitalization.
