Filter by:This study will test the hypothesis that the molecular changes present in ectopic endometriosis lesions correlate with progesterone-resistant disease (using the criteria defined in this study) and are present in matched eutopic endometrium.
This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, proof-of-mechanism phase 2 trial investigating the effect of quinagolide extended-release vaginal ring on reduction of lesions assessed by high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging in women with endometrioma, deep infiltrating endometriosis, and/or adenomyosis.
To test the hypothesis that estrogen suppression impairs endothelial dysfunction in endometriosis.
Fertility Preservation is now considered as crucial for the well-being of women battling cancer. However, others indications have more recently emerged. Women with endometriosis may represent a suitable group since they are at risk for compromise ovarian reserve. Data on FP in endometriosis patients are rare: only small retrospective study, case-reports and opinion publications .Nowadays, there is no available data concerning real indications for PF on endometriosis patients (endometriomas, risk of surgery, deep endometriosis?), criteria for eligibility (ovarian reserve parameters, age), quality of oocytes and number of oocytes necessary to give at least one live birth. We propose a monocentric observational cohort study, evaluating the efficacy of oocytes cryopreservation as fertility preservation procedure, in young adult female subjects with endometriosis, to finally define the criteria of eligibility for PF procedures in case of endometriosis.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the longitudinal bone mineral density (BMD) in premenopausal women with uterine fibroids or endometriosis.
Endometriosis can affect quality of life, including physical, psychological and social aspects. It is important to include quality of life measures in evaluating disease severity and response to any given treatment. The 30-item Endometriosis Health Profile (EHP-30) from in-depth interviews with patients with endometriosis is currently the most reliable questionnaire for the measurement of health-related quality of life in women with endometriosis. It includes specific questions addressing the problems faced by patients with endometriosis. The aim of the present study is to validate the Turkish version of EPH 30, a self reported questionnaiere already used internationally, in order to determine the quality of life in women with endometriosis, assess their psychological health and the effectiveness of therapies.
Multicentric retrospective study about the comparison of two different techniques of vaginal breach suturing after eradication surgery for deep infiltrating endometriosis and the surgical approaches (laparoscopic or vaginal) in terms of surgical, clinical and functional outcomes.
This study aims to analyze the multi-omics results between eutopic endometrium, adenomyosis and endometriosis of patients diagnosed of adenomyosis with and without endometriosis. The multi-omics profiles include whole exome sequencing, analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics. A comprehensive multi-omics will reveal the pathogenesis of adenomyosis.
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic disease, characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue, glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. Although endometriosis is classified in four stage (minimal, mild, moderate, severe), from the clinical point of view it is possible to subdivide among peritoneal superficial lesions, ovarian endometriomas and Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis (DIE). According to the European Society for Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) Guideline on the management of women with endometriosis, it is recommended to clinicians that in infertile women with endometrioma larger than 3 cm, cystectomy should be considered prior to Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) to improve endometriosis-associated pain or the accessibility of follicles. They further recommend that clinicians counsel women with endometrioma regarding the risks of reduced ovarian function after surgery, the possible loss of the ovary, and consider that the decision to proceed with surgery should be taken carefully if the woman has had previous ovarian surgery. In addition, this Guideline suggests that clinicians can prescribe prolonged (3-6 months) pituitary downregulation with Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone-agonists (GnRH-a) prior to ART, in order to increase live birth rate by four-fold. Despite these recommendations, to date there is not robust evidence to choose between the two strategies prior to ART in order to improve reproductive outcomes. For this reason, the aim of the current study will be to compare reproductive outcomes in infertile women affected by ovarian endometrioma, undergoing laparoscopic enucleation or prolonged pituitary downregulation with GnRH-a, prior to ART.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I/Ib study which will assess the safety, tolerability, food effect, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of FOR-6219, a hydroxysteroid (17B) dehydrogenase (HSD17B1) inhibitor. The study will be performed in three parts: (I) Single ascending doses (SAD) in healthy post-menopausal women; (II) multiple ascending doses (MAD) in post-menopausal women; (III) multiple ascending doses in healthy pre-menopausal women.
