Contraception

A study to compare 3 doses of a hormonal intra-uterine device containing levonorgestrel and indomethacin with a hormonal intra-uterine device containing only levonorgestrel to assess the effect and safety of the combined components

Trial purpose

This study is the first study investigating the combined intrauterine administration of LNG (levonorgestrel) and IND (indomethacin). It is a combined proof-of-concept (PoC) and dose finding (DF) study in pre-menopausal women. It is designed to investigate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of BAY 987443 (i.e. IUS (intrauterine system) releasing LNG and IND), as well as pharmacokinetics (PK) of both active substances, safety and tolerability. In this study, Jaydess, as an LNG-only IUS, will be used as a comparator.

Trial design

Multi-center, randomized, comparator-controlled, single-blind, parallel-Group study to investigate the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and safety of an intrauterine system (BAY987443) with three different release rates of indomethacin and one release rate of levonorgestrel, as compared with Jaydess, in a combined proof-of-concept and dose finding study in healthy pre-menopausal women treated for 90 days
