View clinical trials related to Fibroid Uterus.
Filter by:Myoma of the uterus or uterine fibroids are benign tumors that appears in the myometrium or the muscular layer of the uterus. It is one of the most common diseases in pre-climax women, reaching 12-25% of all gynecological diseases. There is an opinion that the true prevalence of myoma is much larger and reaches up to 80%, i.e., practically every second woman has it, often without knowing about. For the treatment of MM, surgical removal of the nodes or removal of the uterus is used. In addition, GnRH-agonist therapy is practiced, as well as embolization to block blood flow in the tumor. We propose to evaluate the immunotherapy approach in an open label Phase II study in 20 women with myoma, for whom no alternative therapy is available.
The study aims to study the effect of simvastatin on the size of uterine fibroids.
Fibroid is a frequent pathology of infertile women. Its deleterious effect on the infertility would be due to the mechanical way. The interest of the resection of intramural fibroids is discussed. It is necessary to measure the indication of a myomectomy, whatever the surgical procedure. On the one hand, it may cause important potential complications, and on the other hand, the surgery does not improve the parameters of the fertility. Thus, it is a major stake to avoid the surgical operation. A decrease of the size of these fibroids by medical treatment is then a good option. When the surgical treatment is necessary, a medical pre-surgical treatment is often proposed in order to decrease the symptomatology and to reduce the size of the fibroid to facilitate the surgery. Acetate Ulipristal (UPA) has been marketed in this indication. Following the Pearl I-II studies, the first indication in France was a pre-surgical treatment for 3 months at a dose of 5 mg per day. The Pearl III and IV studies evaluated the Esmya® administration as a long-term intermittent repeated treatment, giving to it a prominent position for the long-term management of symptomatic fibroids. Furthermore, cases of pregnancy before surgery are frequently described in women with fibroids treated by UPA for a pre-IVF surgery. 5 to 10 % of women who are managed for infertility have fibroids and only 2% to 3% have this unique cause of infertility. Then, some of patients followed in ART centers have been treated by UPA to reduce the fibroids size and/or to decrease the associate symptoms. The aim of this study is to evaluate in the different French ART centers, the impact on fertilization of UPA administration for infertile women with fibroids and to describe the modalities of its prescriptions and to collect information regarding safety tolerance profile of Esmya® in this patient population.
This study evaluates whether use of intraoperative ultrasound during laparoscopic or robotic myomectomy impacts quality of life. Half of participants will undergo laparoscopic or robotic myomectomy with use of the intraoperative ultrasound and half will undergo traditional laparoscopic or robotic myomectomy.
This is a retrospective, case-control study of 75 patients having undergone a robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy were compared to patients having undergone myomectomy via laparotomy. Both groups had 3 or fewer fibroids confirmed by pre-operative MRI or on final pathology report. Charts were reviewed for surgical and post-operative variables
The objective of this study is to determine the long-term safety of asoprisnil in women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who completed the 6 month Study C02-037.
The objective of this study is to determine the long-term safety of asoprisnil in women with abnormal uterine bleeding associated with uterine fibroids.
The objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy effects of two doses of asoprisnil (10 mg and 25 mg) compared with placebo when administered daily for 6 months to premenopausal subjects with symptomatic uterine leiomyomata.
