GLADEA Phase II, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Multicenter Study to Investigate the Safety and Exploratory Efficacy of a Subdermal Implant-bioabsorbable Gestrinone Pellet for Pelvic Pain Secondary to Endometriosis Treatment

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of of subdermal implant-bioabsorbable gestrinone pellet use in women with pelvic pain secondary to endometriosis. The exploratory aim is to compare the use of a gestrinone pellet with a placebo pellet in the results of participant satisfaction, change in pelvic pain intensity, use of rescue pain medication, quality of life, sexual function, and work activity. PK profile of the gestrinone pellet will be monitored. One hundred patients will be randomized in a 1: 1 ratio. Initially, all the patients will undergo insertion of an intrauterine system of levonorgestrel release (Kyleena) as a contraceptive method. On the same day, after randomization, the subdermal implantation of the gestrinone (85 mg) or placebo pellet will be performed. Visits will occur after 3 and 6 months of the pellet insertion. Primary endpoint is a combination of serious adverse events (SAEs) accumulated within 6 months of pellet insertion and collected through spontaneous reporting and/or clinical findings.
