- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Participants With Endometrial Hyperplasia at Month 12: Main Study Month 12 Endometrial hyperplasia was assessed by endometrial biopsies. All endometrial biopsies were read centrally by 2 primary pathologists. If both the pathologists disagreed on the presence of hyperplasia, a third pathologist was consulted. Results were summarized for two definitions of hyperplasia (simple hyperplasia with or without atypia or complex hyperplasia with or without atypia); definition 1: participants were considered to have a diagnosis of hyperplasia when the 3 pathologists disagreed but at least 1 pathologist determined hyperplasia; definition 2: participants were considered to have a diagnosis of hyperplasia if at least 2 of the 3 pathologists agreed on the diagnosis.
Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) of Lumbar Spine at Month 12: Osteoporosis Sub-Study Baseline, Month 12 BMD measurements of the anteroposterior lumbar spine were acquired by using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans, twice at Month 12 for a subset of participants who entered the osteoporosis substudy. The second scan was to be performed on the same day as the first; however, the participant was to be removed completely from the table after the first scan and repositioned for the second scan. Mean percentage change from baseline of the 2 readings were reported.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) of Lumbar Spine at Month 6: Osteoporosis Sub-Study Baseline, Month 6 BMD measurements of the anteroposterior lumbar spine were acquired by using DXA scans, twice at Month 6 for a subset of participants who entered the osteoporosis substudy. The second scan was to be performed on the same day as the first; however, the participant was to be removed completely from the table after the first scan and repositioned for the second scan. Mean percentage change from baseline of the 2 readings were reported.
Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) of Total Hip at Month 6, 12: Osteoporosis Sub-Study Baseline, Month 6, Month 12 BMD measurements of the total hip were acquired by using DXA scans, twice at Month 6 and 12 for a subset of participants who entered the osteoporosis substudy. The second scan was to be performed on the same day as the first; however, the participant was to be removed completely from the table after the first scan and repositioned for the second scan. Mean percentage change from baseline of the 2 readings were reported.
Percentage of Participants With Cumulative Amenorrhea: Main Study Day 1 up to Day 364 Cumulative amenorrhea was defined as the absence of any bleeding or spotting for cumulative 4-week periods throughout 1-year study.
Percent Change From Baseline in Breast Density at Month 12: Breast Density Sub-Study Baseline, Month 12 Breast density was assessed by digitalized mammograms which were centrally read by a single radiologist using specifically-developed software. Breast density was assessed for subset of participants who entered the breast density sub-study
Percent Change From Baseline in Bone Turnover Markers (BTMs) at Month 6 and Month 12: Osteoporosis Sub-Study Baseline, Month 6, 12 Bone turnover is the removal of old bone from the body and its replacement by new bone. Bone turnover markers included serum osteocalcin, C-telopeptide, and procollagen type 1 N-propeptide (P1NP), were measured at Month 6 and Month 12 for a subset of participants who entered the osteoporosis substudy. Blood samples were collected to evaluate bone turnover markers levels.
Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) Sleep Scale at Baseline: Sleep Sub-Study Baseline Participant-rated questionnaire to assess sleep quality and quantity. Consists of 12-item questionnaires answered on a range of 1 to 6 for questions (Q) 3 to 12, 1 to 5 for Q1 (some questions are reversed so that a high score reflects more of the attributes); and Q2 answered on 0 to 24. Scores are transformed (actual raw score minus lowest possible score divided by possible raw score range\* 100); total score range: 0 to 100; higher score = greater intensity of attribute. The items contribute to each scale and are averaged to create the 7 scale scores and a sleep quantity scale. Scales with at least one item answered was used to generate a scale score. Scales include; sleep disturbance (SD), snoring, awaken short of breath (ASoB) or with a headache (H), somnolence, sleep adequacy (SA), sleep problem index (SPI) I and II (range: 0-100) and sleep quantity (SQ \[range 0 to 24\]). Except for sleep quantity, higher scores=greater impairment.
Change From Baseline in Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) Sleep Scale at Month 3: Sleep Sub-Study Baseline, Month 3 Participant-rated questionnaire to assess sleep quality and quantity. Consists of 12-item questionnaires answered on a range of 1 to 6 for questions (Q) 3 to 12, 1 to 5 for Q1 (some questions are reversed so that a high score reflects more of the attributes); and Q2 answered on 0 to 24. Scores are transformed (actual raw score minus lowest possible score divided by possible raw score range\* 100); total score range: 0 to 100; higher score = greater intensity of attribute. The items contribute to each scale and are averaged to create the 7 scale scores and a sleep quantity scale. Scales with at least one item answered was used to generate a scale score. Scales include; sleep disturbance (SD), snoring, awaken short of breath (ASoB) or with a headache (H), somnolence, sleep adequacy (SA), sleep problem index (SPI) I and II (range: 0-100) and sleep quantity (SQ \[range 0 to 24\]). Except for sleep quantity, higher scores=greater impairment.
Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) Score at Baseline: Sleep Sub-Study Baseline MENQOL questionnaire assessed how bothered participants were due to menopause. It consists of 29 items divided into 4 domains: vasomotor function (3 items), psychosocial function (7 items), physical function (16 items), and sexual function (3 items). Each item scores a range from 1 to 8, with 1 indicating that the participant did not experience the symptom or problem, 8 indicating that the participant was extremely bothered by the symptom or problem. The total score for each domain is the average of item scores and ranged from 1 to 8 with higher score indicating worsening of symptoms. The MENQOL total score is the mean of these 4 domain scores and ranged from 1 to 8 with higher score indicating worsening of symptoms.
Change From Baseline in Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) Score at Month 3: Sleep Sub-Study Baseline, Month 3 MENQOL questionnaire assessed how bothered participants were due to menopause. It consists of 29 items divided into 4 domains: vasomotor function (3 items), psychosocial function (7 items), physical function (16 items), and sexual function (3 items). Each item scores a range from 1 to 8, with 1 indicating that the participant did not experience the symptom or problem, 8 indicating that the participant was extremely bothered by the symptom or problem. The total score for each domain is the average of item scores and ranged from 1 to 8 with higher score indicating worsening of symptoms. The MENQOL total score is the mean of these 4 domain scores and ranged from 1 to 8 with higher score indicating worsening of symptoms.
Percentage of Participants With Uterine Bleeding Week 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, 13-16, 17-20, 21-24, 25-28, 29-32, 33-36, 37-40, 41-44, 45-48, 49-52 Percentage of participants with uterine bleeding were calculated for each 4-week period for 1-year on therapy.
