Key information

About this study

No medical therapy is currently available for the long-term treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in women and many women must resort to surgery for relief. The objective of this study is to determine the long-term safety of asoprisnil 10 and 25 mg administered daily for 18 months to subjects with symptomatic uterine leiomyomata who completed the 6 month Study C02-037. The safety endpoints for this study will be based on assessments of the endometrium, ovarian cysts, lipid profiles, adverse events and clinical laboratory evaluations.

Some subjects receiving asoprisnil developed endometrial changes. As a result, dosing was prematurely discontinued for all subjects. To ensure safety, subjects will remain on study and will undergo scheduled study procedures. In most subjects, endometrial changes reversed after asoprisnil discontinuation.
