Endometriosis Paid Clinical Trials in Missouri

Endometriosis is a painful disorder of the uterus affecting 6-10% of women of childbearing age. Endometriosis affects daily activities, social relationships, sexuality and sexual activity, and mental health. This study will evaluate how well elagolix in combination with combined oral contraceptives (COC) works within the body and/or how safe it is compared to placebo (does not contain treatment drug). This study will assess the dysmenorrhea (painful periods) response in participants with endometriosis and associated pain. Elagolix is an approved drug for the management of moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis. Participants are randomly put in 1 of 3 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Adult female participants who still have periods with a diagnosis of endometriosis will be enrolled. Around 800 participants will be enrolled in the study at multiple sites in the United States, including Puerto Rico. Participants will receive oral elagolix or placebo tablets in combination with combined oral contraceptive (COC) or placebo capsules for 3 months. All the participants will receive elagolix tablets in combination with COC tablets from Month 4 through Month 18. There will be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires. Read Less

The purpose of this clinical trial to characterize changes in bone mineral density during continuous treatment with relugolix combination tablet for up to 48 months (4 years) and 1 year of post-treatment follow-up in premenopausal women with heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine leiomyomas (fibroids) or with moderate-to-severe pain associated with endometriosis.

Aim 1. To determine the factors contributing to pain in patients with chronic pelvic pain with and without endometriosis Aim 2. To determine the changes following endometriosis lesion removal surgery in pain and sex hormone levels. Aim 3. To identify factors predicting clinical pain reduction after lesion removal surgery. Additional exploratory aims might compare subgroups of patients such as patients with vs. without endometriosis, with vs. without additional chronic pain syndromes, and with vs. without hormonal treatment. In addition, the role of lesion-specific immune signatures and psychological factors on pain will be explored. Patients with pelvic pain potentially due to endometriosis will complete questionnaires including social, health, behavioral, and psychological questionnaires. Patients will also complete a 2.5 hours study visit of psychophysical assessments of thermal and pressure stimuli. In addition, blood, urine, and saliva samples will be collected for hormonal, immune, and genetic analyses. Additional samples might be collected and stored for future analyses. For some participants, these procedures will be completed several times, including before the surgery as well as 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. After the surgery, surveys assessing pain and other symptoms will be sent every week on the first month and then monthly for 1 year. In addition, during the surgery, biopsies will be collected and analyzed to determine hormonal, immune and genetic factors. For adolescents, a parent/legal guardian will be asked to assist in completing some of the health-related surveys (i.e., physical developmental survey, health survey, migraine history survey).

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the Peer Empowered Endometriosis Pain Support (PEEPS) program in people living with endometriosis-related pelvic pain. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Is PEEPS effective at decreasing pain interference and improving patient-reported quality of life outcomes? What are the barriers and facilitators to PEEPS implementation? Participants will engage in eight weekly 2-hour sessions led by an endometriosis specialist, pain psychologist, pelvic floor physical therapist, and yoga instructor. At these sessions they will participate in peer support, education, mindfulness, and yoga. Read Less
