A Study to Compare 3 Doses of a Hormonal Intra-uterine Device Containing Levonorgestrel and Indomethacin With a Hormonal Intra-uterine Device Containing Only Levonorgestrel to Assess the Effect and Safety of the Combined Components (INDessa)

August 9, 2019 updated by: Bayer

Multi-center, Randomized, Comparator-controlled, Single-blind, Parallel-Group Study to Investigate the Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics and Safety of an Intrauterine System (BAY987443) With Three Different Release Rates of Indomethacin and One Release Rate of Levonorgestrel, as Compared With Jaydess, in a Combined Proof-of-concept and Dose Finding Study in Healthy Pre-menopausal Women Treated for 90 Days

This study is the first study investigating the combined intrauterine administration of LNG (levonorgestrel) and IND (indomethacin). It is a combined proof-of-concept (PoC) and dose finding (DF) study in pre-menopausal women. It is designed to investigate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of BAY 987443 (i.e. IUS (intrauterine system) releasing LNG and IND), as well as pharmacokinetics (PK) of both active substances, safety and tolerability. In this study, Jaydess, as an LNG-only IUS, will be used as a comparator.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 41 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Agreement to use an acceptable non-hormonal method of contraception (i.e. male or female condom with or without spermicide; cap, diaphragm or sponge with spermicide) when sexually active. This applies during the pre-treatment cycle and directly following the treatment period until the end of the follow-up period. This is not required if safe contraception is achieved by a permanent method, such as bilateral fallopian tube blockage of the subject or vasectomy of the partner(s).
  • Age at screening: 18-45 years inclusive
  • Body mass index (BMI) at screening: ≥ 18 and ≤ 32 kg/m²
  • No clinically relevant abnormal findings in the pre-treatment endometrial biopsy
  • Adequate venous access (for frequent blood sampling)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Menstrual disorders with unknown reason (not e.g. oligomenorrhea, hypomenorrhea amenorrhea due to hormonal treatment; not irregularities occurring during menarche). In case it is suspected that the woman is peri-menopausal, she should be excluded.
  • Use of short-acting hormonal contraceptives/preparations containing sex hormones (oral, transdermal, intravaginal, IUS) during the pretreatment cycle
  • Use of long-acting preparations containing sex hormones within the 40 weeks before the first screening examination (any long-acting injectable or implant)
  • History of known or presence of suspected or known malignant tumors, especially any breast cancer, cervical carcinoma in situ or other progestin-sensitive cancer
  • History of skin reactions, or other allergic-type reactions or known hypersensitivity reactions after taking aspirin, IND or other NSAIDs or to LNG, or any excipients of the IUSs
  • Regular use of corticosteroids, irrespective of route of administration
  • Known asthma bronchiale and aspirin-sensitive asthma
  • Current or recurrent pelvic inflammatory disease
  • Abnormal cervical smear within the last 6 month prior to screening
  • Acute genital infection
  • Known current thyroid disorders which require treatment (subjects with an euthyroid struma who do not need any treatment can participate)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
