Filter by:Vasomotor symptoms (VMS) develop in the premenopausal period and symptoms may persist for years after menopause.Vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and sleep disturbances affect women's quality of life. There is a need for alternative treatments to reduce vasomotor symptoms due to the inadequacy of current treatments and the need for an effective treatment. Exercise is seen as a low-risk treatment to reduce vasomotor symptoms. Resistance trainig combined with aerobic training may be effective in reducing vasomotor symptoms and improving quality of life. The effects of the combination of resistance trainig 2 days a week and aerobic trainig 3 days a week on vasomotor symptoms, quality of life, sleep disturbance and depression will be investigated and compared with the control group.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat vasomotor symptoms, a condition of having hot flashes. The condition is caused by hormonal changes and occurs primarily in women, but can also affect men. The study treatment, elinzanetant, is under development to treat symptoms caused by hormonal changes. It works by blocking a substance called neurokinin from sending signals to other parts of the body, which is thought to play a role in starting hot flashes. Participants of this study will be healthy and will have no benefit from administration of elinzanetant. This study, however, will provide information on how to use it in people with vasomotor symptoms. In previous studies, elinzanetant doses tested and resulting blood levels were close to the levels intended for treatment. However, in future use, it cannot always be ruled out that higher elinzanetant concentrations may occur in the blood if patients are taking certain other drugs at the same time, or take more than the recommended dose of the drug. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe elinzanetant is when higher doses than normally used are given compared to placebo in healthy participants. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. To answer this, researchers will compare the number of participants who have medical problems after taking elinzanetant to those treated with placebo. Doctors keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatments. The study consists of two parts. In part 1, the participants will either take a single dose of elinzanetant or placebo by mouth dependent on the treatment group. Four different increasing doses of elinzanetant will be tested. Participants in dose group 1 and 4 will participate in part 2. About 8 days after treatment in part 1, the participants will receive a single dose of moxifloxacin and a single dose of placebo as tablet by mouth 5 days apart. Whether the participant starts with moxifloxacin or placebo is decided by chance. Moxifloxacin is used to make sure that certain changes in heart rhythm can be detected in the study. Each participant will be in the study for about 6 weeks including 1 treatment day (part 1) or for about 8 weeks including 3 treatment days (part 1 & 2). Participants of part 1 will stay in-house for 7 days. Participants of part 2 will stay in-house for another 9 days. The in-house phase starts two days before intake of the study treatment. In addition, one visit before and one visit after the in-house phase to the study site is planned. During the study, the study team will: - Do physical examinations - Check vital signs - Take blood and urine samples - Examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG) - Ask the participants questions about their mood and about sleepiness.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat men and women with vasomotor symptoms, a condition of having hot flashes caused by hormonal changes. The study drug, elinzanetant, is under development to treat symptoms caused by hormonal changes. It works by blocking a substance called neurokinin from sending signals to other parts of the body, which is thought to play a role in starting hot flashes. Participants of this study will be healthy and will have no benefit from administration of elinzanetant. This study, however, will provide information on how to use elinzanetant in people with vasomotor symptoms. The main purpose of this study is to learn whether the study drug elinzanetant (BAY3427080) affects the way the substrate drug dabigatran moves into, through and out of the body. One way of removing substances such as drugs from the body are proteins which act as transporters. One such transporter is called P-gp. As a so-called substrate of P-gp, dabigatran is typically removed from the body by P-gp transporters. The activity of transporters can be increased by substances called inducers and decreased by substances called inhibitors. It has been found in laboratory experiments that the study drug elinzanetant is a weak inhibitor of the P-gp transporter. Inhibition of this transporter can lead to an increase in the amount of drugs such as dabigatran in the blood. This study is therefore needed to make recommendations on how elinzanetant can be used safely together with other drugs that are removed from the body by the P-gp transporter. To answer this, the researchers will compare - the average highest level of dabigatran in the blood (also referred to as Cmax) - the average total level of dabigatran in the blood (also referred to as AUC) when dabigatran is given alone and is given together with elinzanetant. All participants will take one dose of dabigatran by mouth in the first period of the study. And after 4 days, the participants will take one dose of elinzanetant by mouth and at 30 minutes later, one dose of dabigatran by mouth during the second period of the study. The total duration of individual study participation will be about 4.5 weeks including the screening period. Each participant will stay in the center for 9 days with 8 overnight stays. During the study, the study team will: - take blood and urine samples - do physical examinations - check the participants' overall health - examine heart health using ECG - check vital signs - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling 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.
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of ESN364 on the severity and frequency of hot flashes in early postmenopausal women suffering from hot flashes, in terms of changes in weekly Hot Flash Score from baseline to Week 12. This study also evaluated the effect of ESN364 on the severity and frequency of hot flashes at additional timepoints; hot flash interference on daily life, in terms of changes from baseline over time in Hot Flash Related Daily Interference Scale (HFRDIS); the effect of ESN364 on climacteric symptoms, in terms of changes from baseline over time in Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ), Greene Climacteric Scale (GCS), and Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS); pharmacodynamic (PD) effect; and safety and tolerability.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat men and women with vasomotor symptoms, a condition of having hot flashes caused by hormonal changes. In women, these hormonal changes happen in the time around their menopause, the last period (menstrual cycle) a woman has. After the menopause, the ovaries produce less and less sex hormones as a result of the natural ageing process and related hormonal adaptations. The decrease in hormones produced can lead to various symptoms that may be troublesome. Vasomotor symptoms are also seen in men. The study treatment, elinzanetant, is under development to treat symptoms caused by hormonal changes. It works by blocking a substance called neurokinin, which is thought to play a role in starting hot flashes. Previous studies have been done. This study will provide information on how to use elinzanetant in Chinese people. The main purpose of this study is to learn how much of the study treatment elinzanetant gets into the participants' blood when a single dose is taken in healthy Chinese women. To answer this question, the researchers will measure: - The (average) total level of elinzanetant in the blood (also called AUC) - The (average) highest level of elinzanetant in the blood (also called Cmax) The researchers also want to learn how much elinzanetant gets into the blood when taken for 6 days in a row. Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take elinzanetant or placebo. First, a single dose of two capsules is taken by mouth and later multiple doses once a day for another 6 days in a row are taken. Each participant will be in the study for approximately 22 days including 7 treatment days in total. Participants will stay in-house for 16 days. In addition, one visit to the study site prior start and four visits after the in-house period are planned. During the study, the study team will: - Do physical examinations - Take blood and urine samples - Check vital signs - Examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG) - Ask the participants questions about how they are feeling 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.

Participants of this study will be healthy and will have no benefit from administration of elinzanetant. This study, however, will provide information on how to use elinzanetant in people with vasomotor symptoms. In previous studies, capsules containing smaller amounts of elinzanetant have been used. To reach the daily dose intended for treatment, 3 of these capsules had to be taken once a day. To reduce the pill burden and make it easier for patients to stick to the treatment, capsules with a higher amount of elinzanetant have been developed. The main purpose of this study is to learn how much of the study treatment elinzanetant gets into the participants' blood when the same dose is taken as new capsule formulation compared to the old capsule formulation. To answer this question, the researchers will compare: - The (average) total level of elinzanetant in the blood (also called AUC) - The (average) highest level of elinzanetant in the blood (also called Cmax) between both capsule formulations after taking one dose of each. In addition, the researchers want to compare how much of the new and old elinzanetant formulations get into the blood after intake for 9 subsequent days. All participants will take both formulations by mouth during the study. Each participant will be in the study for up to 12 weeks, including 10 treatment days for each formulation. Participants will stay in-house for 14 days per capsule formulation. In addition, one screening visit to the study site is planned. During the study, the study doctor and their team will: - Do physical examinations - Take blood and urine samples - Check vital signs - Examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG) - Ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study.

This study determined the efficacy of non-hormonal therapy with citalopram compared to fluoxetine, for the treatment of menopausal symptoms in Mexican women with vasomotor syndrome (VMS) and urogenital syndrome.
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.
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.
