Group Intervention Description Placebo Placebo - CDB-2914 CDB-2914 (ulipristal acetate) -
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Inhibition of follicular rupture within 6 days after treatment intake Inhibition is calculated as the number of subjects exhibiting no dominant follicle rupture, divided by the total number of subjects having received treatment
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Appearance or absence of a corpus luteum during the 6 days following treatment intake Growth pattern of leading follicle number of cycles exhibiting atresia (diameter decrease ≥25%), or continued growth (diameter increase ≥25%), or interrupted growth (size remains within ±25% of the follicle size at the time of treatment)
Presence or absence of a surge of serum luteinizing hormone (LH) levels The onset of an LH surge is defined as the occurrence of the first single serum LH value whose level is at least 50% higher than the mean of the last two previous measurements, or higher than the last previous measurement if only one previous LH level is available.
Menstrual cycle length in comparison to the subject's reported baseline average cycle length and to her placebo-treated cycle length Incidence of intermenstrual bleeding and treatment-emergent adverse events Incidence of adverse events and occurrence of abnormal laboratory safety variables in comparison with baseline Incidence of ovarian cysts after CDB-2914 treatment
