Inclusion Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria (all inclusion criteria must have been met prior to randomization unless otherwise specified):
- Has voluntarily signed and dated the informed consent form prior to initiation of any screening or study-specific procedures
- Premenopausal female aged 18 years and older on the day of signing of the informed consent form
- Has a diagnosis of uterine fibroids that is confirmed by a pelvic ultrasound (transvaginal and/or transabdominal) performed during the screening period.
Has at least one or more of the following symptoms:
- Heavy menses defined as PBAC (Pictorial Bleeding Assessment Chart) score ≥ 120
- Pelvic pain during menses measured on NRS (Numeric Pain Rating Scale) ≥ 4 at baseline
- Moderately severe fibroid-related symptoms (a score ≥ 25 on the Uterine Fibroid UF quality of life symptoms severity subscale)
- Has a negative urine pregnancy test at the Screening, Baseline and interval clinic visits
Agrees to use two forms of non-hormonal contraception (dual contraception) consistently during the screening period and the randomized treatment period. These may include: Diaphragm, cervical cap, spermicides, male and female condoms, copper IUD ( intra uterine device) and sponge. Each one will be explained in detail for the participants. However, the patient is not required to use dual contraception if she:
- Has a sexual partner(s) who was vasectomized at least 6 months prior to the screening period.
- Had a bilateral tubal occlusion (including ligation and blockage methods such as Essure™), at least 4 months prior to the first screening visit (patients with Essure™ must have prior confirmation of tubal occlusion by hysterosalpingogram);
- Is not sexually active with men; periodic sexual relationship(s) with men requires the use of dual non-hormonal contraception as noted above; or
- Practices total abstinence from sexual intercourse as her preferred lifestyle; periodic abstinence is not acceptable.
- Has an endometrial (aspiration) biopsy, if clinically indicated, performed during the screening period, with results showing no clinically significant endometrial pathology (hyperplasia, endometritis, or endometrial cancer).

Note: Saline or gel contrast is not routinely required. Use of such contrast is required only when the endometrium cannot be evaluated or when there are ambiguous and potentially exclusionary findings on the transvaginal and/or transabdominal ultrasound (e.g., suspected intrauterine masses, equivocal endometrial findings, etc.)
- Has unexplained vaginal bleeding outside of the patient's regular menstrual cycle

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Study drug Myfembree
Participants will be asked to take a once-daily tablet of Myfembree ( relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1 mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg) for 24 months.
|
The study drug Myfembree will be taken orally with water, once daily, at approximately the same time, with or without food.
Each tablet of Myfembree contains Relugolix 40mg, estradiol 1mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg.
|
No Intervention: Standard of Care
The standard of care will depend on the participant's type of surgery, health history, and clinical symptoms.
It often includes pain management, bleeding management, physical exams, pelvic ultrasound, birth control, and Surgical reintervention.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Fibroid recurrence on ultrasound after myomectomy.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
Fibroid recurrence when compared to the post-myomectomy baseline pelvic ultrasound (transvaginal and/or transabdominal), defined as a new fibroid identified on ultrasound with a volume >1 cm3.
|
36 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Participants' quality of life assessed by the Quality of Life Questionnaire.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
The Quality of life questionnaire: UFS-QOL ( Uterine Fibroid symptoms & Health Related-Quality of Life) is a self-reported questionnaire used to measure symptoms and health-related quality of life in women with uterine fibroids.
The questionnaire contains 8 items concerning uterine fibroid symptoms and 29 items concerning health-related quality of life.
Each item has a score (1-5), and the scores are summed so that a higher score indicates a higher quality of life.
|
36 months
|
Work Productivity and Activity Impairment assessed by Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire( WPAI: SHP) is a self-reported questionnaire assessing the effects of a participant's problem on her ability to work and perform activities on a scale from 0 (problem had no effect on daily activities) to 10 ( problem completely prevent doing daily activities).
|
36 months
|
Female Sexual Function Impairment assessed by Female Sexual Function Index Questionnaire.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) is a self-reported questionnaire that assesses different domains of sexual function in addition to providing an overall score regarding sexual function.
The possible total score ranges from 2 to 36.
|
36 months
|
Heavy menses recurrence after myomectomy with score ≥ 120 on Pictorial Bleeding Assessment Chart (PBAC).
Time Frame: 36 months
|
The Pictorial Bleeding Assessment Chart is a visual scoring system where the participant can directly record the number of her used feminine items (tampons and pads) and the degree to which they are bloodstained.
|
36 months
|
Pelvic pain recurrence after myomectomy with Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) ≥ 4 at baseline.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
The Numerical Rating Scale is a subjective measure in which participants rate their pain on an eleven-point.
Possible scores range from 0(no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain).
|
36 months
|
The need for surgical/non-surgical reintervention for recurrent symptoms after myomectomy reported by the participant and based on her provider's decision.
Time Frame: 36 months
|
This will be measured based on the participant's reported symptoms and response to treatment.
The re-intervention may include repeat myomectomy, uterine fibroid embolization, radiofrequency ablation, or hysterectomy.
|
36 months
