Brief Summary

PREG2 is a randomized controlled trial that aims to evaluate efficacy in preventing intrauterine adhesion recurrence after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis of a novel intrauterine barrier film named Womed Leaf

Detailed Description

PREG2 is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled, two arm clinical study. The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of Womed Leaf in preventing intrauterine adhesion recurrence after adhesiolysis compared to adhesiolysis alone.

The study will be performed on women with moderate or severe adhesions (AFS score \>=5) scheduled for adhesiolysis. Indeed, the risk of intrauterine adhesion is very high (up to 60%) in this population of patients.

A follow-up diagnostic hysteroscopy will be performed 6-8 weeks after the adhesiolysis procedure to determine the presence and severity of IUAs according to the American Fertility Society and European Society of Gynecologic Endoscopy classification systems of adhesions. Fertility-related outcome will include live pregnancy at 1 year, 2 years and 3 years and will be reported as secondary endpoints. 154 women are planned to be included in the PREG2 study.

  • Subjects who are willing to provide a written informed consent.
  • Subjects who can comply with the study follow-up (second look hysteroscopy) and other study requirements
  • Subjects who agree to refrain from intercourse or use a reliable form of barrier contraception to prevent unintended pregnancy until the follow-up hysteroscopy.
  • Subjects who agree to avoid all intrauterine devices (IUDs) until the follow-up hysteroscopy.
Exclusion Criteria

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Efficacy - IUA SeverityAt second look hysteroscopy between 4 and 8 weeks

Change of AFS score between pre-adhesiolysis and second-look hysteroscopy (AFS) score

The scale used to assess the severity of intrauterine adhesions is the American Fertility Society score. It is a 12 points composite score that adds-up 3 subcomponents: - Extend of adhesions (1 = less than 1/3 of the uterine cavity involved with adhesions to 4 = more than 2/3 of the uterine cavity involved with adhesions),

* Type of adhesions (1 = Filmy adhesions to 4 = dense adhesions)

* Menstrual pattern (0= normal to 4 = amenorrhea).

The final score allows the following prognostic classification:

1-4 = mild disease, 5-8 = moderate disease 9-12 = severe disease

Safety - Adverse EventsAt second look hysteroscopy between 4 and 8 weeks

Adverse events up to second look hysteroscopy.
