Overview
Brief Summary
Endometriosis is a chronic, progressive, estrogen-dependent disease of unknown aetiology, with a prevalence rate of up to 10% in women in reproductive age-group. Since there is no known cure for endometriosis, management is aimed at reducing pain, minimizing disease progression and preserving fertility. Dienogest is a progestin with both local and central effects in reducing endometriosis associated pelvic pain, with a good
safety profile. Based on the information from the clinical developmental program for Dienogest the Indian Health Authority (DCGI) has approved Dienogest for the management of pelvic pain associated with endometriosis and requested to carry out a phase IV post-approval study. The proposed regulatory postapproval Phase IV study is planned to assess the safety and effectiveness of Dienogest in patients in India with endometriosis associated pelvic pain, in real world clinical practice.
