Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of DEH113 in the Treatment of Menstrual Cramps Pain Associated with Primary Dysmenorrhea.

Conditions

Primary Dysmenorrhea

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Sum of Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR) over 0-4, 0-6 and 0-8 hours post-dose

  Pain relief will be evaluated considering the Sum of Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR) over 0-4, 0-6 and 0-8 hours post-dose. Pain relief will be evaluate using a Categorical Pain Relief Rating Scale (0 = No relief, 1 = a little relief, 2 = some relief, 3 = a lot of relief, 4 = complete relief).

  4, 6 and 8 hours post-dose

• Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) over 4, 6 and 8 hours post-dose

  Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) over 4, 6 and 8 hours post-dose. The pain intensity will be assessed using a Categorical 4-point scale (0 = no pain, 1 = mild pain, 2 = moderate pain, 3 = severe pain).

  4, 6 and 8 hours post-dose

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Pain intensity (PI) over time

  0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-dose

• Use of rescue medication

  8 hours post-dose

• Patients' Global Impression of Change (PGIC)

  8 hours post-dose
