Trial Outcomes & Findings for Pilot of Letrozole for Uterine Myomas (NCT NCT02470741)

NCT ID: NCT02470741

Last Updated: 2019-11-15

Results Overview

The Uterine Fibroid Sympton and Quality of Life (UFS-QoL) Symptom Severity score measures self-reported severity of fibroid-related symptoms. Symptoms include: fatigue, sleep, self-image, mood disturbances/psychologic distress, fear of embarrassment, interference with daily activities, relationships with family and friends, and sexual functioning. Scores range from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate greater symptom severity.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 2 Months

Population: The final analysis excludes one participant in the placebo/letrozole group who dropped out of the study after baseline but prior to starting study medication and the Month 2 visit.

The Uterine Fibroid Sympton and Quality of Life (UFS-QoL) Symptom Severity score measures self-reported severity of fibroid-related symptoms. Symptoms include: fatigue, sleep, self-image, mood disturbances/psychologic distress, fear of embarrassment, interference with daily activities, relationships with family and friends, and sexual functioning. Scores range from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate greater symptom severity.
