Trial Outcomes & Findings for Dose-finding Study for the Ultralow-dose Levonorgestrel Intrauterine Contraceptive System (LCS) (NCT NCT00185380)
NCT ID: NCT00185380
Last Updated: 2015-06-10
Results Overview
The Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 woman years. The 3-year PI was obtained by dividing the number of pregnancies that occurred during the first three years of treatment by the time (in 100 women years) that the women were under risk of getting pregnant.

Participant Flow
Parous or nulliparous women in good general health and in need of contraception were recruited from medical clinics between April and Nov 2005.
Most screening failures were in-/exclusion criteria not met and over-screening. Randomized: 742 women, Treated: 738 women. Full analysis set (FAS), safety analysis set (SAF) and per protocol analysis set (PPS) were identical (738 subjects).

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Up to 3 yearsPopulation: All randomized women with a successful insertion were analyzed according to the treatment actually received and were included in the FAS, which was the set used for all safety and efficacy analyses. The PPS was identical to the FAS.
The Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 woman years. The 3-year PI was obtained by dividing the number of pregnancies that occurred during the first three years of treatment by the time (in 100 women years) that the women were under risk of getting pregnant.
