Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Contraceptive Efficacy of Relugolix Combination Therapy as Assessed by the At-Risk Pearl Index (PI)
The At-Risk PI is defined as the number of on treatment pregnancies per 100 women-years of treatment. The At-Risk PI will be calculated on the basis of cycles considered at-risk of pregnancy, that is, consecutive 28-day periods without use of any other contraceptive methods and with affirmed occurrence of vaginal intercourse. On-treatment pregnancies are pregnancies with an estimated conception date between the first day of study intervention intake up to and including 7 days after the last intake of study medication.
13 consecutive 28-day treatment cycles
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Contraceptive Efficacy of Relugolix Combination Therapy as Assessed by the Modified At-Risk PI

Study Arms (1)
Relugolix/E2/NETA
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive relugolix combination therapy for 1 year (13 consecutive 28-day treatment cycles).
Interventions
Participants will receive orally 1 fixed-dose combination tablet (relugolix 40 mg/E2 1 mg/NETA 0.5 mg) once daily.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Is a premenopausal woman, 18 to 50 years of age.
- Is at risk of pregnancy (that is, having heterosexual intercourse at least once per month) and is seeking contraception.
- Has normal, regular menstrual cycles that are between 21 and 35 days in duration.
- Has a diagnosis of uterine fibroids or endometriosis meeting either of the following criteria:
- Diagnosis of uterine fibroids by confirmation of ultrasound performed in the last 2 years and patient report of heavy menstrual bleeding affecting quality of life.
- Diagnosis of endometriosis and has had surgical or direct visualization (laparoscopy or laparotomy) and/or histopathologic confirmation of endometriosis, and the patient reports moderate, severe, or very severe pain during the most recent menses and/or during nonmenstrual portion of the cycle in the prior month
- Is willing to use the study intervention as the sole method of contraception for 13 consecutive 28-day treatment cycles and does not intend to use any other form of contraception (for example, condoms).
You may not qualify if:
- Is pregnant, or breastfeeding, or has breastfed in the last year.
- Has a known history of infertility or sub-fertility.
- Has presence or history of a venous thromboembolic event (for example, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism), an arterial thrombotic or thromboembolic event (for example, myocardial infarction, stroke, or peripheral arterial), or a transient ischemic attack, angina pectoris, or claudication.
- Has a higher risk of arterial, venous thrombotic, or thromboembolic disorders.
- Has a history of migraine with aura or focal neurological symptoms.
- Has uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes with inadequate control, or multiple cardiovascular risk factors.
- Has a history of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias.
- Has clinically significant liver disease, including active viral hepatitis or cirrhosis.
- Has a history of pancreatitis associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia.
- Has known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or high risk of contracting HIV.
- Has a hepatic hemangioma or has a history of cholestasis with prior estrogen use or during pregnancy.
- Has a serious contraindication to pregnancy (for example, a medical condition or use of chronic medication such as isotretinoin or thalidomide).
- History of suicidal ideation or behavior, or confirmed "yes" to any question (with exception of non-suicidal self-injurious behavior, unless deemed as an unacceptable risk by the investigator) on the C-SSRS.
- Has a bone mineral density Z-score ≤ -2.0 at lumbar spine, femoral neck, or total hip during the screening period.
- Has a history of or currently has osteoporosis, or other metabolic bone disease, collagen vascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 or greater with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \< 60 mL/min/m2 using Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) method, hyperparathyroidism, hyperprolactinemia, known pituitary adenoma, hyperthyroidism, anorexia nervosa, abnormal bone mineral metabolism (eg, hypophosphatemia), or low traumatic (fragility) fracture.
