Treatment and study plan

Data Collection

Other

This is a non-interventional (observational) national multicentre prospective study.

Treatment was administered according to the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC): maximum 6 injections administered every 28 days.

The decision to prescribe GnRH-a (Diphereline 3,75 mg) was made prior to and independently from the decision to enroll the patient into the study.

Primary outcomes

  1. Severity of disease symptom menorrhagia (none-mild-moderate-severe) in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian subject population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Change from baseline to up to 6 months after the last injection (up to month 11)

    A responder is defined as a subject with menorrhagia reduction at least by one level (i.e. from severe to moderate, from moderate to mild, from mild to none).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patients' age at study entry

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

  2. Age at the time of internal genital endometriosis diagnosis

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

  3. Gynaecological history

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

    Age of menarche, hereditary load in onco-gynaecology, sexually transmitted infections, gynaecological surgical procedures, number of pregnancies, medical abortions, miscarriages, normal deliveries, coexisting gynaecological diseases, somatic diseases, if any.

  4. Data on fertility: primary and secondary sterility

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

  5. Medical history

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

  6. Concomitant medications and non drug therapy for internal endometriosis treatment

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1)

  7. Severity of disease symptom dysmenorrhea (none-mild-moderate-severe) in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: On the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

    A full responder is defined as the person with a reduction of intensity of at least one level for all symptoms of at least mild intensity at baseline (i.e. from severe to moderate, from moderate to mild, from mild to none).

  8. Severity of disease symptom menorrhagia (none-mild-moderate-severe) in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: On the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

    A full responder is defined as the person with a reduction of intensity of at least one level for all symptoms of at least mild intensity at baseline (i.e. from severe to moderate, from moderate to mild, from mild to none).

  9. Severity of disease symptom metrorrhagia (none-mild-moderate-severe)

    Time frame: On the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

    A full responder is defined as the person with a reduction of intensity of at least one level for all symptoms of at least mild intensity at baseline (i.e. from severe to moderate, from moderate to mild, from mild to none).

  10. Severity of disease symptom pelvic pain (none-mild-moderate-severe) in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: On the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

    A full responder is defined as the person with a reduction of intensity of at least one level for all symptoms of at least mild intensity at baseline (i.e. from severe to moderate, from moderate to mild, from mild to none).

  11. Uterine volume in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and on the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

    Measured by ultrasound and calculated by the equation 0,523 x a x b x c, where a, b and c stand for uterine length, width and thickness, respectively

  12. Uterine shape (bimanual pelvic examination) in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and on the day of the last injection (up to Month 5)

  13. Internal genital endometriosis symptom metrorrhagia in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Change from baseline (Day 1) to 6 months after the last injection (up to Month 11)

  14. Internal genital endometriosis symptom dysmenorrhea in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Change from baseline (Day 1) to 6 months after the last injection (up to Month 11)

  15. Internal genital endometriosis symptom pelvic pain in different disease stages I, II, III in the Russian patient population scheduled for treatment with Diphereline 3.75 mg

    Time frame: Change from baseline (Day 1) to 6 months after the last injection (up to Month 11)

  16. Reproduction function will be assessed by the number of patients got pregnant 6 and 9 months after the end of treatment with Diphereline 3.75mg

    Time frame: 6 and 9 months after the end of treatment with Diphereline

  17. Reproduction function will be assessed by the number of patients who avoided hysterectomy/ did not receive a surgical treatment 6 and 9 months after the end of treatment with Diphereline 3.75mg

    Time frame: 6 and 9 months after the end of treatment with Diphereline

  18. Diphereline 3.75 mg treatment practice will be assessed by the number of scheduled/ performed injections with treatment schedule (each 28 days) in line with treatment administration approved in Russian Federation

    Time frame: Up to Month 5

  19. Diphereline 3.75 mg treatment practice will be assessed by patient compliance with treatment schedule (each 28 days) in line with treatment administration approved in Russian Federation
