Trial Outcomes & Findings for LIBERTY 1: Efficacy & Safety Study of Relugolix in Women With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding Associated With Uterine Fibroids (NCT NCT03049735)

NCT ID: NCT03049735

Last Updated: 2022-04-19

Results Overview

A responder was a participant who had MBL volume of \< 80 mL and at least a 50% reduction from baseline MBL volume over the last 35 days of treatment (up to Week 24). All returned feminine products collected at each clinical visit were analyzed by the alkaline hematin method to obtain the MBL volume. MBL volume was measured over the Week 24/early termination feminine product collection interval (up to 35 days prior to the last dose of treatment). The percentage of participants who were responders are presented. As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified primary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with placebo. Therefore, only relugolix plus E2/NETA and placebo arms are presented.

Participant Flow

A total of 80 study centers globally were initiated in this study, including centers in the United States, Brazil, Italy, Poland, South Africa, and the United Kingdom.

A total of 388 premenopausal women aged 18 to 50 years with heavy menstrual bleeding (≥ 80 milliliters \[mL\] per cycle for 2 cycles or ≥ 160 mL during 1 cycle documented by the alkaline hematin method) associated with uterine fibroids were randomized. One placebo participant was randomized and not treated due to a serious adverse event.

Amenorrhea was defined as meeting 1 of the following criteria for 2 consecutive visits: 1. No feminine product returned due to reported amenorrhea; 2. No feminine product returned due to reports of spotting/negligible bleeding coupled with electronic diary (eDiary) data indicating infrequent non-cyclic bleeding/spotting; 3. Feminine product collection with a negligible observed MBL volume coupled with eDiary data indicating infrequent non-cyclic bleeding/spotting. As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified secondary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with placebo. Therefore, only relugolix plus E2/NETA and placebo arms are presented.

Timeframe: From Baseline up to Week 24

Population: All participants who were randomized to treatment and who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had analyzable data for uterine fibroid-associated pain at the specified timepoints.

Uterine fibroid-associated pain was assessed by a pain numerical rating scale (NRS). The pain NRS is a validated, single-item, self-reported measure, which asks respondents to rank their pain on an 11-point scale as follows: 0 (no pain), 1 to 3 (mild pain), 4 to 6 (moderate pain), and 7 to 10 (severe pain). Participants were asked to document, in an e-Diary, the worst pain associated with their uterine fibroids that they experienced during the last 24 hours, every day until the end of study drug administration. Pain evaluable participants, defined as those who had maximum NRS score ≥ 4 at Baseline and had at least 28 days (80% of the last 35 days of treatment) of pain scores recorded in the e-Diary, were analyzed. As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified secondary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with placebo. Therefore, only relugolix plus E2/NETA and placebo arms are presented.

Population: All participants who were randomized to treatment and who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had analyzable data for UFS-QoL BPD scores at the specified timepoints.

The Uterine Fibroid Symptom and Health-Related Quality of Life (UFS-QoL) Bleeding and Pelvic Discomfort (BPD) Scale has been derived from the UFS-QoL Symptoms Scale. The scale consists of the following 3 symptoms proximal to uterine fibroids: Heavy bleeding during your menstrual period (Question \[Q\] 1), passing blood clots during your menstrual period (Q2), and feeling tightness or pressure in your pelvic area (Q5). raw scores were transformed to a normalized score: Transformed Score = \[(Actual raw score - lowest possible raw score)/(Possible raw score range)\] \* 100 Transformed score ranges from 0 to 100 based on Likert scale (None of time, a little of time, some of the time, most of the time and all of the time). Lower score indicates minimal symptom severity and higher score indicates maximum symptom severity. As per the study objective, the pre-specified secondary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with placebo. Therefore, only these two arms are presented.

Population: All participants who were randomized to treatment and who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had analyzable data for BMD at lumbar spine (L1 to L4) at the specified timepoints.

Bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the lumbar spine (L1, L2, L3, and L4) at Baseline and at Week 12. The scans were read by the central radiology laboratory in accordance with the imaging charter. The same DXA machine was used at the local imaging center at each site and operated in the same scan mode for all images procured for an individual participant. All images were submitted for central reading. The central radiology laboratory collected and evaluated all DXA scans for acceptability and measured BMD. As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified secondary analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with relugolix plus delayed E2/NETA at Week 12 and are presented below.

Population: All participants who were randomized to treatment and who received at least 1 dose of study drug.

An adverse event was defined as an unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not related to the medicinal product. The preferred terms of hyperhidrosis, feeling hot, hot flush, night sweats, and flushing were combined to describe vasomotor symptoms. Participants with multiple events for a given preferred term were counted only once for each preferred term. Reported CI based on exact binomial 95% CI (Clopper-Pearson). As per the objective of the study, this secondary analysis compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with relugolix plus delayed E2/NETA at Week 12 and are presented below.

Number Of Participants Who Achieved A Maximum NRS Score ≤ 1 For Uterine Fibroid-associated Pain Over The Last 35 Days Of Treatment Who Had Maximum Pain Scores ≥ 4 During The 35 Days Prior To Randomization
33 Participants
11 Participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 24

Population: All participants who were randomized to treatment and who received at least 1 dose of study drug who had a maximum NRS score ≥ 4 at baseline and had at least 28 days (80% of the last 35 days of treatment) of pain scores recorded in the e-Diary.

Uterine fibroid-associated pain was assessed by a pain NRS. The pain NRS is a validated, single-item, self-reported measure, which asks respondents to rank their pain on an 11-point scale as follows: 0 (no pain), 1 to 3 (mild pain), 4 to 6 (moderate pain), and 7 to 10 (severe pain). As per the objective of the study, the pre-specified secondary efficacy analyses compared relugolix plus E2/NETA with placebo. Therefore, only relugolix plus E2/NETA and placebo arms are presented.
