Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Participants With Absence of Bleeding During the Last 35 Consecutive Days on Treatment in Treatment Course 1
Participants recorded bleeding in a daily diary. Absence of bleeding was defined as no bleeding days (i.e., no entries for bleeding or heavy bleeding; however, spotting was allowed), during the last 35 consecutive days on treatment in Treatment Course 1.
Last 35 consecutive days on treatment in the 12-Week Treatment Course 1
Time to Absence of Bleeding on Treatment During Treatment Course 1
Time to absence of bleeding was defined as the duration in days from first dose to the first day in the time interval in which absence of bleeding occurs and persists through the last dose in the first treatment course. The persistence of absence of bleeding occurred for a minimum of 35 consecutive days counting backward from the last dose in Treatment Course 1.
From first dose up to the end of the 12-Week Treatment Course 1
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Percentage of Participants With Absence of Bleeding From Day 11 Through the End of Treatment Course 1
Day 11 through the end of treatment in the 12-Week Treatment Course 1
Percentage of Participants With Absence of Bleeding During the Last 35 Consecutive Days on Treatment in Treatment Course 2
Last 35 consecutive days on treatment in the 12-Week Treatment Course 2
Time to Absence of Bleeding on Treatment During Treatment Course 2
From first dose up to the end of treatment in the 12-Week Treatment Course 2
Change From Baseline in Uterine Fibroid Symptom and Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (UFS-QOL) Revised Activities Subscale Score at the End of Treatment Course 1
Baseline (Day 1-4) to End of 12-Week Treatment Course 1
Study Arms (6)
UPA 5 mg:Placebo
EXPERIMENTALUlipristal Acetate (UPA) 5 mg tablet plus matching placebo 10 mg tablet, orally, once daily for 12 weeks in Treatment Course 1; followed by a 2 menses drug-free interval; followed by matching placebo tablets (5 mg and 10 mg), orally, once daily for 12 weeks in Treatment Course 2.
