GyneFix IUD Plus LNG-IUS for Adenomyosis (GYNEFIX-AM)

26 czerwca 2026 zaktualizowane przez: Peipei Li, Wenzhou People's Hospital

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Indomethacin-GyneFix IUD Combined With a Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine System in Patients With Adenomyosis and Different Uterine Cavity Depths

Adenomyosis is a common gynecological condition that can cause menstrual pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, anemia, and reduced quality of life. The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system is commonly used as a conservative treatment, but displacement or expulsion of the device may occur, especially in patients with an enlarged uterus or a deep uterine cavity.

This study evaluated whether combining an Indomethacin-GyneFix intrauterine device with a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system could improve device stability in patients with adenomyosis. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to receive GyneFix IUD plus LNG-IUS, ring IUD plus LNG-IUS, or LNG-IUS alone. Participants were followed for 6 months after device placement. The main outcome was device displacement or expulsion at 6 months. Other outcomes included menstrual pain, menstrual blood loss, uterine volume, hemoglobin, CA125, adverse events, and treatment acceptance.

Szczegółowy opis

This was a single-center, prospective, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial conducted at Wenzhou People's Hospital in patients with adenomyosis. The study was designed to compare three intrauterine treatment strategies for improving the stability of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system in patients with different uterine cavity depths.

Eligible patients were women diagnosed with adenomyosis who had no current desire for pregnancy, had no contraindications to intrauterine device placement, and were able to complete scheduled follow-up. After written informed consent was obtained, participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of three groups: GyneFix IUD plus LNG-IUS, ring IUD plus LNG-IUS, or LNG-IUS alone.

In the GyneFix IUD plus LNG-IUS group, the Indomethacin-GyneFix IUD was used as an anchoring device to stabilize the LNG-IUS. The anchoring knot of the GyneFix IUD was placed in the uterine fundal myometrium under ultrasound guidance, allowing the LNG-IUS to remain suspended and stabilized within the uterine cavity. In the ring IUD plus LNG-IUS group, a ring IUD was placed together with the LNG-IUS to provide passive mechanical support. In the LNG-IUS-alone group, the LNG-IUS was inserted according to the standard procedure.

All procedures were performed under real-time ultrasound guidance by experienced gynecologists. Participants were followed at approximately 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after device placement. Follow-up assessments included symptom evaluation, gynecological examination, ultrasound assessment of device position and uterine parameters, laboratory testing, adverse event monitoring, and treatment acceptance assessment.

The primary outcome was intrauterine device displacement or expulsion at 6 months. Secondary outcomes included changes in dysmenorrhea measured by visual analogue scale, menstrual blood loss measured by pictorial blood loss assessment chart, uterine volume, hemoglobin, serum CA125, adverse events, and patient acceptance. A subgroup analysis was planned according to uterine cavity depth.

The Indomethacin-GyneFix IUD was used as an anchoring device to stabilize the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system. The LNG-IUS was connected to the upper portion of the GyneFix IUD with non-absorbable surgical suture. Under real-time ultrasound guidance, the anchoring knot of the GyneFix IUD was implanted into the uterine fundal myometrium, allowing the LNG-IUS to remain suspended and stabilized within the uterine cavity.

Aktywny komparator: Ring IUD Plus LNG-IUS
Participants received a ring IUD combined with a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system. The ring IUD and LNG-IUS were sequentially inserted into the uterine cavity under ultrasound guidance. The ring IUD was positioned near the upper uterine cavity or fundal region to provide passive mechanical support for the LNG-IUS.
