Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Total Dysmenorrheal Score at Final Evaluation

    Total dysmenorrheal score was defined as sum of 2 sub-scores: severity of dysmenorrhea (none: 0, mild: 1, moderate: 2, severe: 3) and use of analgesics (none: 0, mild: 1, moderate: 2, severe: 3). Total possible best is 0, and total possible worst is 6. Note: used with permission of Nobelpharma Co., Ltd. from the phase 3 clinical study protocol (Prog Med 2005:25 (3):739-758) of IKH-01 in dysmenorrhea (associated with endometriosis) (Nobelpharma Co., Ltd.)

    Baseline and up to 4 Cycles (28 days per cycle)

Secondary Outcomes (19)

  • Change From Baseline in Total Dysmenorrheal Score at Cycle 1 up to Cycle 4

    Baseline and up to 4 Cycles (28 days per cycle)

  • Number of Participants With Severity of Lower Abdominal Pain During Menstruation at Cycle 4

    Cycle 4 (28 days per cycle)

  • Number of Participants With Severity of Low Back Pain During Menstruation at Cycle 4

    Cycle 4 (28 days per cycle)

  • Number of Participants With Severity of Nausea or Vomiting During Menstruation at Cycle 4

    Cycle 4 (28 days per cycle)

  • +14 more secondary outcomes
