Primary outcome measure(s)
Percentage Of Participants Who Achieved A Menstrual Blood Loss (MBL) Volume Of < 80 mL And ≥ 50% Reduction From Baseline MBL Volume — From Baseline up to the last 35 days of the double-blind treatment period A responder was a participant who had MBL volume of \< 80 mL and at least a 50% reduction from baseline MBL volume over the last 35 days of the double-blind treatment period. All returned feminine products collected at each clinical visit were analyzed by the alkaline hematin method to obtain the MBL volume. MBL volume was measured over the Week 12/early termination feminine product collection interval (up to 35 days prior to the last dose of double-blind treatment). The percentage of participants who were responders are presented.
As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified primary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus megestrol acetate 1 mg and medroxyprogesterone acetate 2 mg with placebo. Therefore, only relugolix plus megestrol acetate 1 mg and medroxyprogesterone acetate 2 mg and placebo arms are presented.
