Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of epelsiban compared with placebo in treatment of women with adenomyosis.

This is a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study with an interim futility analysis. Subjects will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive 75 milligrams (mg) of epelsiban three times daily (TID), 200 mg of epelsiban TID, or placebo TID. The study will be composed of three periods: screening, treatment, and follow-up and the total time a subject will be in the study will be approximately 6 months.
