Researchers are looking for a better way to treat women who have hot flashes after women have been through the menopause. Hot flashes are caused by the hormonal changes that happen when a woman's body has been through the menopause. Menopause is when women stop having a menstrual cycle, also called a period. During the menopause, the ovaries increasingly produce less sex hormones as a result of the natural ageing process and related hormonal adjustments. The decline in hormone production can lead to various symptoms which, in some cases, can have a very adverse effect on a menopausal woman's quality of life. The study treatment, elinzanetant, was developed to treat symptoms caused by hormonal changes. It works by blocking a protein called neurokinin from sending signals to other parts of the body, which is thought to play a role in starting hot flashes. There are treatments for hot flashes in women who have been through the menopause, but may cause medical problems for some people. In this study, the researchers will learn how well elinzanetant works compared to a placebo in women who have been through the menopause and have hot flashes. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. To compare these study treatments, the doctors will ask the participants to record information about the participants' hot flashes in an electronic diary. The researchers will study the number of hot flashes the participants have and how severe the hot flashes are. The researchers will look at the results from before treatment, after 4 weeks, and after 12 weeks of treatment. The participants in this study will take two capsules of either elinzanetant or the placebo once a day. The participants who take elinzanetant will take it for 26 weeks. The participants who take the placebo will take it for 12 weeks and then take elinzanetant for the next 14 weeks. During the study, the participants will visit the site approximately 9 times and perform 1 visit by phone. Each participant will be in the study for approximately 36 weeks. The treatment duration will be 26 weeks. During the study, the participants will: - record information about the participants' hot flashes in an electronic diary - answer questions about the participants' symptoms The doctors will: - check the participants' health - take blood samples - ask the participants questions about what medicines the participants are taking and if the participants are having adverse events An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if doctors do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments.
This trial studies how well EMBr Wave technology works in reducing hot flashes in women with a history of breast cancer. Hot flashes are a common symptom experienced by menopausal women. The standard treatment for hot flashes is hormone replacement therapy, however hormone replacement therapy cannot be used in women with a history of, or active, breast cancer. EMBr Wave is a personal heating and cooling device worn on the wrist. EMBr Wave may help reduce hot flash severity in women with a history of breast cancer.
Hot flashes are a common and debilitating symptom among prostate cancer patients undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Strong evidence from multiple rigorously designed studies indicated that venlafaxine provides partial relief, but the tolerability is poor when the dose is not tapered. Hence, an alternative therapy is needed. Previous studies reported that acupuncture may be helpful in the management of hot flashes. However, the insufficient randomized controlled trial limited the quality of evidence.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have vasomotor symptoms (VMS). VMS such as hot flashes are caused by hormonal changes occurring during menopausal transition when women may have also changes in their monthly cycles. The study treatment, elinzanetant (BAY3427080), was developed to work by blocking neurokinin receptors from working. These receptors can cause changes in the body which can affect hormone levels in men and women. Acid is created by the stomach to help break down and digest food. A type of treatment for overly production of acid by the stomach are called proton pump inhibitors which are currently available for people who have stomach and digestion problems. Proton pump inhibitors work by lowering the amount of acid created by the stomach. In this study, the researchers want to learn about elinzanetant oral bioavailability when taken with a proton pump inhibitor called esomeprazole. They want to learn if taking these drugs together affects the oral bioavailability. The researchers will study how esomeprazole affects the way elinzanetant moves into, through, and out of the body. To do this, the doctors and their team will take blood samples from the participants. These samples will be used to measure the levels of elinzanetant in the participants' blood when it is taken with and without esomeprazole. This study will include healthy adult participants. There will be 2 periods in this study. It is planned that all of the participants will take part in both periods. During Period 1, the participants will take elinzanetant 1 time as a capsule by mouth. The participants will also receive a very small amount of radioactive elinzanetant, also called a microtracer, given through needle in a vein. During Period 2, the participants will take esomeprazole once a day for 5 days as tablets by mouth. On the last day, the participants will also take elinzanetant 1 time as a capsule by mouth. During this study, the participants will visit the study site 3 times. The participants will stay at the study site for 9 days in Period 1 and for 12 days in Period 2. Each participant will be in the study for up to 9 weeks. During the study, the doctors will take urine samples. They will also ask the participants about any medications they have been taking, and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments.

This study is for menopausal women who have hot flashes. Menopause, a normal part of life, is the time after a woman's last period. Hot flashes often occur during menopause. They can disrupt a woman's daily life. This study will take place in Japan. This study will provide more information on a potential new treatment, called fezolinetant. The treatments in this study are fezolinetant or a placebo. In this study, a placebo is a dummy treatment that looks like fezolinetant but does not have any medicine in it. The study will compare fezolinetant with the placebo to find the best dose of fezolinetant to reduce the number and severity of hot flashes. Women that want to take part in the study will be given an electronic handheld device to track their hot flashes. In the last 10 days before their next clinic visit, the women will record information about their hot flashes. Women will be picked for 1 of 3 treatments (lower or higher dose of fezolinetant, or placebo) by chance alone. Women who take part in the study will take 2 tablets every day for 12 weeks. Treatment will be double-blinded. That means that the women in the study and the study doctors will not know who takes which of the study medicines (lower or higher dose of fezolinetant, or placebo). The women will continue recording information about their hot flashes on the electronic device. They will also use another device to answer questions about how hot flashes affect their daily life. During the study, the women will visit their study clinic several times for a check-up. This will happen during weeks 2, 4, 8, 12 and 15. At the check-up, they will be asked if they have any medical problems. Other checks will include some blood samples taken for laboratory tests. At some check-ups, the women will have a physical exam, an ECG to check their heart rhythm, and their vital signs checked (pulse rate, temperature and blood pressure). At the first visit and in week 15, women who have a uterus will also have a test called a transvaginal ultrasound. A probe is gently placed inside the vagina. Sound waves will create a picture of the organs in the pelvis. This will allow the study doctor to look more closely at the uterus and surrounding organs. The last check-up (at week 15) will be 3 weeks after they take their last tablets of study medicine (lower or higher dose of fezolinetant or placebo).
This study is for women in menopause who have moderate to severe hot flashes. It is for women who are unable to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Menopause, a normal part of life, is the time after a woman's last period. Hot flashes often occur during menopause. They can disrupt a woman's daily life. The study medicines (also called investigational products, or IP) are tablets of fezolinetant or placebo. An investigational product means that the product is not yet licensed. In this study, a placebo is a dummy treatment that looks like fezolinetant but does not have any medicine in it. The study will compare fezolinetant with the placebo to learn if fezolinetant reduces the number and severity of hot flashes. Women that want to take part in the study will be given an electronic handheld device with an app to track their hot flashes. Some women may be able to use the app on their own smartphone. In the last 10 days before their next clinic visit, the women will record information about their hot flashes. They can take part in the study if they have an average of 7 or more moderate to severe hot flashes each day. Women will be picked for 1 of 2 treatments (fezolinetant or placebo) by chance alone. Women who take part in the study will take 2 tablets every day for 24 weeks. Treatment will be double-blinded. That means that the women in the study and the study doctors will not know who takes which of the study medicines (fezolinetant or placebo). The women will continue recording information about their hot flashes on the electronic device or their phone. They will also use another device to answer questions about how hot flashes affect their daily life. During the study, the women will visit their study clinic several times for a check-up. This will happen during Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 27. Some women may be able to have home visits instead, from Week 2 to Week 20. At the check-up, they will be asked if they have any medical problems. Other checks will include vital signs (heart rate, temperature and blood pressure) and some blood samples taken for laboratory tests. At some check-ups, the women will have a physical exam. In Week 2 and Week 24, the women will have an ECG to check their heart rhythm. Women who have a uterus will also have a test called a transvaginal ultrasound. A probe is gently placed inside the vagina. Sound waves will create a picture of the organs in the pelvis. This will allow the study doctor to look more closely at the uterus and surrounding organs. The last check-up (at Week 27) will be 3 weeks after they take their last tablets of study medicine (fezolinetant or placebo).
