SYNOPSIS 
Name of sponsor/company: Ipsen Pharma 
Name of finished product: Triptorelin pamoate prolonged release (PR) 3-month 
Name of active ingredient(s): Triptorelin pamoate 
Title of study: A phase III, multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel, active-controlled study to 
compare the oestradiol suppression, clinical efficacy and safety of two formulations of triptorelin 
(triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month) in Chinese subjects with 
endometriosis 
Study number: D-CN-52014-220 
Number of planned centres: Approximately 25 centres in China 
Planned study period: 
May 2017 to November 2019 
Phase of development: 
Phase III 
Objectives: 
It is hypothesised that triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month will offer non-inferior efficacy to triptorelin 
acetate PR 1-month in the treatment of Chinese subjects with endometriosis (as previously 
demonstrated in a European population in Study E-28-52014-705). 
Primary objective: 
• 
To assess the efficacy of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month formulation in Chinese female 
subjects with endometriosis by demonstrating the noninferiority of triptorelin pamoate 
PR 3-month formulation injected once as compared to triptorelin acetate PR 1-month 
formulation injected 3 times consecutively, assessed by the percentage of subjects 
castrated (oestradiol (E2) ≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12. 
Secondary objectives: 
• 
To assess other efficacy parameters including the percentage of subjects castrated at 
other time points, E2, luteinising hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) 
concentrations, and the impact on endometriosis-associated pelvic pain. 
• 
To assess the safety profile of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month. 
• 
To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and compare to 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month. 
Exploratory objectives: 
• 
To assess efficacy parameters (percentage of subjects castrated, E2, LH and FSH 
concentrations and impact on endometriosis-associated pelvic pain) after Week 12. 
• 
To explore the PK/pharmacodynamics (PD) of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month in a 
subset of subjects (PD markers being E2, FSH and LH). 
Methodology:  
This prospective, multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel-group, active-controlled study will 
compare triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month with triptorelin acetate PR 1-month in the treatment of 
endometriosis in Chinese subjects. 
Subjects with endometriosis will be recruited and screened for eligibility up to 5 weeks prior to the 
first dose of investigational medicinal product (IMP), which must occur during the follicular phase of 
the menstrual cycle. Eligible subjects will be stratified by endometriotic surgical history and 
endometriosis-associated pelvic pain (assessed by a visual analogue scale (VAS)) and randomised in a 
1:1 ratio to receive either triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month once per 12 weeks or triptorelin acetate PR 
1-month once per 4 weeks for a 24-week treatment phase. All subjects will visit the study site every 
4 weeks until Week 24, with the exception of the subgroup participating in the full PK and exploratory 
PD evaluations (up to 32 subjects, including up to 16 from each treatment group; to be enrolled at

selected sites), who will have additional study visits during the treatment phase. If needed in the 
opinion of the investigator, "add back" treatment (recommended as, but not limited to, tibolone at a 
dose of 2.5 mg once daily) may be applied from Week 12. After 24 weeks' study treatment, subjects 
will be followed up by telephone every 4 weeks until menses recovery or Week 40 (whichever is 
earlier), except for subjects receiving triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and participating in the full 
PK/PD subgroup, who will visit the study site. The first visit after the menses recovery or Week 40 
will be considered as the end of study visit. All subjects will attend the study site for the end of study 
visit. 
The duration of the study is a minimum of 24 to 40 weeks, plus up to 5 weeks for the screening period. 
Number of subjects planned: 
300 randomised subjects (150 receiving triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and 150 receiving triptorelin 
acetate PR 1-month).

suspension. For a single dose, the powder comprises triptorelin acetate, D, L-lactide-coglycolide 
polymer, mannitol, sodium carmellose and polysorbate 80. The solvent provided for injection is a 
2 mL ampoule of mannitol and water. 
This product is administered by the intramuscular route only. The powder is reconstituted with the 
solvent provided and injected immediately after reconstitution. The product is administered as a single 
intramuscular injection every 4 weeks. 
Criteria for evaluation: 
Efficacy: 
Primary endpoint and evaluation: 
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12. The primary 
endpoint will be evaluated based on centralised bioanalysis of serum samples for E2.  
Secondary endpoints and evaluations: 
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Weeks 4 and 8.  
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤110 pmol/L or 30 pg/mL) at Weeks 4, 8 and 12.  
• 
Change in endometriosis-associated pelvic pain (by 10 cm VAS) at Weeks 4, 8 and 12 
compared to baseline.  
• 
E2, FSH and LH concentrations at Weeks 4, 8 and 12.  
• 
Time to menses recovery.  
Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic endpoints and evaluations: 
A full triptorelin PK analysis will be conducted in a subgroup of up to 16 subjects in each treatment 
group (the full PK/PD subgroup: up to 32 subjects in total, to be enrolled at selected sites). Sparse PK 
samples will be taken in all subjects (in addition to the full PK subgroup) at Day 1 (baseline), and 

IPSEN GROUP 
D-CN-52014-220 
 
CONFIDENTIAL 
PROTOCOL: FINAL (VERSION 3.0, AMENDMENT 2.0) 29 SEPTEMBER 2017 
PAGE 8/89 
 
 
Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 24. Additional hormone samples (E2, FSH and LH) will be collected for PD 
assessments at Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 32 in the full PK/PD subgroup. 
Noncompartmental analysis will only be performed on the PK data collected for the PK/PD subgroup 
to assess the PK parameters for the triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month 
formulations. Population PK analysis (modelling) will be performed on PK data from all subjects. 
Exploratory endpoints will include: 
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (as defined by both E2≤184 pmol/L (50 pg/mL) and 
E2≤110 pmol/L (30 pg/mL)) at Week 24;  
• 
Change in endometriosis-associated pelvic pain (by 10 cm VAS) at Weeks 16, 20 and 
24 and the end of study visit compared to baseline;  
• 
Concentrations of E2, FSH and LH at Week 24. 
• 
The PK/PD relationship will be explored (PD markers being E2, FSH and LH). 
Safety: 
Occurrence of adverse events (AEs) throughout the study, clinical laboratory (biochemistry, 
haematology and urinalysis) test results and electrocardiogram (ECG) findings at screening, Week 12 
and Week 24, serum hormone (E2, FSH and LH) concentrations at Week 40 (for those subjects whose 
menses do not recover at Week 40), vital signs (blood pressure and heart rate) measurements at each 
visit during treatment and end of study visit, physical/pelvic examination at screening, Week 12 and 
Week 24, pelvic type B ultrasound at screening (or within 1 month prior to screening), Week 12 
(optional) and Week 24, and urinary pregnancy test at screening and baseline. 
Statistical methods: 
The analysis sets for the primary and secondary efficacy endpoints will be the full analysis set (FAS) 
and the per protocol (PP) set. If the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the difference in 
percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12 between the triptorelin 
pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month is >-10%, noninferiority of triptorelin 
pamoate PR 3-month will be confirmed.  
For secondary endpoints relating to the percentage of subjects castrated (either E2≤184 pmol/L or 
E2≤110 pmol/L), the number and percentage of subjects will be presented by treatment group for each 
visit. The difference between the treatment groups will be calculated and displayed with the 95% CI. 
Raw values for serum concentrations of E2, FSH and LH, endometriosis-associated pelvic pain 
(measured by VAS) and change from baseline, will be summarised, using number of available 
observations (n), mean, median, standard deviation (SD), and minimum and maximum values. For 
time to menses recovery, Kaplan-Meier curves, median time to event and 95% CIs will be provided. 
Determination of sample size 
The sample size was estimated based on data from Ipsen Study E-28-52014-705. Assuming the 
percentage of subjects castrated at Week 12 of triptorelin acetate PR 1-month treatment is no less than 
92%, a sample size of 133 subjects in each treatment group will have 85% power to demonstrate the 
noninferiority of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month to the comparator, when the lower limit of the 
95% CI of the difference in percentage of subjects castrated at Week 12 between the treatment groups 
is >-10% and with a 0.025 one-sided type I error rate. 
Assuming that the dropout rate will be around 10%, a sample size of 300 randomised subjects in total 
is planned for this study.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION 
1.1 
Introduction 
Endometriosis is a disorder experienced by approximately 7% to 10% of women. It is 
characterised by the presence of endometrial tissue fragments outside the uterine cavity, most 
commonly in the pelvic area. Endometriosis is an oestradiol (E2) dependent disease and is 
relieved by the administration of antioestrogens, inhibitors of endogenous E2 secretion, and by 
surgical oophorectomy or ectopic tissue surgery.  
The disease may be asymptomatic, but where symptoms occur they usually consist of 
dysmenorrhoea, cyclical abdominal or pelvic pain, and dyspareunia. In addition, 30% to 40% 
of patients with endometriosis are infertile. This means that between 2% and 4% of women 
may be infertile due to endometriosis. Symptom intensity is not necessarily dependent upon 
the extent of the lesions and it is not unusual for endometriosis to be discovered in 
asymptomatic patients undergoing laparoscopy or laparotomy for some other reason. Since 
the symptomatology is also nonspecific, a diagnosis of endometriosis can only be confirmed 
by laparoscopy or other means that provide anatomical or histological evidence.  
Treatment of endometriosis depends on a woman’s symptoms, pregnancy plans, and age, as 
well as the extent of endometriosis. In some cases no treatment is necessary. Where treatment 
is required, two types are currently recommended, and these can be complementary. The first 
is surgery to remove the ectopic endometrial tissue. Furthermore, hormone treatment is used 
to suppress E2 secretion, since E2 stimulates the growth of endometrial tissue. The 
hypogonadotrophic state produced by hormonal suppressants reduces the menstrual flow and 
leads to apoptosis of the endometriotic lesions. The principal hormonal suppressants used are 
gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists such as triptorelin.  
The purpose of triptorelin treatment of endometriosis is symptomatic relief of the condition 
via suppression of E2 production. The clinical effect is associated with reduction of E2 levels 
to postmenopausal levels, and hence suppression of menses. The suppression of menses is 
known to reduce endometriotic deposits and improve clinical symptoms. At the present time, 
hormonal treatment can be used either as first-line treatment or in combination with surgery, 
particularly in cases of extensive endometriosis. The GnRH analogues are used either pre- or 
postoperatively. 
1.2 
Triptorelin 
Triptorelin is a synthetic decapeptide analogue of natural GnRH, a hormone synthesised by 
the anterior and mediobasal hypothalamus that controls the synthesis and secretion of the 
gonadotrophins luteinising hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) [1]. 
Triptorelin is principally characterised by the substitution of the L-glycine at position 6 in the 
natural GnRH decapeptide with D-tryptophan, leading to increased duration of action and 
affinity for the pituitary receptor compared to the parent compound. 
Binding of GnRH agonists to pituitary receptors is specific, saturable and reversible. The 
affinity of the agonist for these receptors is 100 times greater than that of the natural 
substance. At high concentrations and by continuous exposure, initially the agonist causes a 
transitory phase of hyperstimulation (flare-up) corresponding to a series of intracellular 
responses (phospholipase C pathway). Subsequently, the agonist causes a down-regulation of 
GnRH receptor number and a post-receptor desensitisation of the gonadotrophic cell, leading 
to reversible biochemical castration. Base concentrations of LH and FSH decrease, 
accompanied by suppression of response to stimulation by natural exogenous GnRH [2, 3]. 
Different triptorelin formulations are approved for use in China for a number of indications. 
Triptorelin acetate 3.75 mg prolonged release (PR) formulation (for monthly injections,

hereafter known as triptorelin acetate PR 1-month) is approved to treat endometriosis, as well 
as precocious puberty, prostate cancer, uterine fibromyomas and for use in female infertility 
as part of an in vitro fertilisation programme. This formulation, which is marketed in China as 
Diphereline 3.75 mg, represents the current standard of care in the management of 
endometriosis. In addition, a formulation for 3-monthly injections, triptorelin pamoate 15 mg 
PR formulation, hereafter referred to as triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month, is also approved for 
the treatment of prostate cancer only. This formulation, which is marketed in China as 
Triptorelin pamoate for injection 15 mg, is designed to deliver equivalent exposure to the 
1-month formulation, without the need for monthly injections. This formulation is widely 
used to treat endometriosis in other territories. 
A more detailed description of the product is given in Section 3.4. Further details may be 
found in the investigator’s brochure (IB). 
1.3 
Findings from Clinical Studies 
The efficacy of triptorelin in the treatment of endometriosis is well established [4]. Clinical 
studies have demonstrated rapid and sustained biochemical castration and improvement in the 
signs and symptoms of endometriosis. Consequently, various triptorelin formulations are 
approved for the treatment of endometriosis in different territories, including triptorelin 
acetate PR 1-month in China. 
The pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) equivalence of triptorelin pamoate PR 
3-month to triptorelin acetate PR 1-month with endometriosis was previously investigated in 
female European subjects in Ipsen Study E-28-52014-705 [5]. In this study, a total of 
146 subjects received either a single dose of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month (72 subjects) or 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month (74 subjects) over 3 months. At 12 weeks, the efficacy of 
triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month (as determined by the percentage of subjects with E2 
concentrations suppressed to castration levels) was found to be noninferior to the 1-month 
formulation. Overall, 97% of subjects receiving triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month were 
castrated at Week 12, compared to 94% receiving the 1-month formulation. 
Further details may be found in the IB. 
1.4 
Clinical Trial Rationale 
This study will be conducted to support the use of a triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month 
formulation for the treatment of endometriosis in Chinese patients. The primary endpoint will 
be to demonstrate similar efficacy to the currently approved triptorelin 1-month formulation 
in terms of the proportion of subjects with E2 concentrations suppressed to castration levels 
after 12 weeks. 
1.5 
Population to be Studied 
The study will enrol adult female subjects with endometriosis who, in the judgement of the 
investigator, require 6 months' treatment with a GnRH agonist. 
1.6 
Compliance Statement 
The study will be conducted in compliance with independent ethics committees/institutional 
review boards (IECs/IRBs), informed consent regulations, the Declaration of Helsinki and 
International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Guidelines. 
Any episode of noncompliance will be documented. In addition, the study will adhere to all 
local regulatory requirements.  
Before initiating the study, the investigator/institution should have written and dated 
approval/favourable opinion from the IEC/IRB for the study protocol/amendment(s), written 
informed consent form, any consent form updates, subject emergency study contact cards,

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY AND STUDY OBJECTIVES 
2.1 
Purpose of the Study 
This phase III registration study will be conducted to evaluate the similar efficacy of two 
different formulations of triptorelin (triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate 
PR 1-month) in Chinese subjects with endometriosis. Triptorelin acetate PR 1-month has been 
marketed in China since 1999 and is the current standard of care for endometriosis. 
Triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month is only approved to treat prostate cancer in China, but is 
widely used to treat endometriosis in other territories. The 3-month formulation combines the 
advantages of E2 suppression with a longer duration of action, which increases the 
acceptability of treatment by limiting the number of injections required. This study will 
support the application for approval of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month for the treatment of 
endometriosis in Chinese patients by demonstrating similar efficacy to the approved 
formulation, as well as an acceptable safety profile. 
It is hypothesised that triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month will offer non-inferior efficacy to 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month in the treatment of Chinese subjects with endometriosis (as 
previously demonstrated in a European population in Study E-28-52014-705 [5]). 
2.2 
Study Objectives 
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month 
formulation in Chinese female subjects with endometriosis by demonstrating the 
noninferiority of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month formulation injected once as compared to 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month formulation injected 3 times consecutively, assessed by the 
percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12. 
The secondary objectives of the study are as follows: 
• 
To assess other efficacy parameters including the percentage of subjects 
castrated at other time points, E2, LH, and FSH concentrations, and the impact on 
endometriosis-associated pelvic pain. 
• 
To assess the safety profile of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month. 
• 
To assess the PK of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and compare to triptorelin 
acetate PR 1-month. 
The exploratory objectives of the study are: 
• 
To assess efficacy parameters (percentage of subjects castrated, E2, LH and FSH 
concentrations and impact on endometriosis-associated pelvic pain) after 
Week 12. 
• 
To explore the PK/PD of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month in a subset of subjects 
(PD markers being E2, FSH and LH).

STUDY DESIGN 
3.1 
General Design and Study Schema 
This is a prospective, phase III, multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel group, 
active-controlled study. A total of 300 Chinese female subjects with endometriosis will be 
randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month or triptorelin acetate PR 
1-month. Specific details of the dosage groups are given in Section 6. 
Subjects will be recruited and screened for eligibility up to 5 weeks prior to the first dose of 
investigational medicinal product (IMP) being administered. The first dose of IMP must be 
initiated at the baseline Visit (Day 1) in the follicular phase of subjects (the first to fifth day of 
the menses period). The treatment period will be 24 weeks, with the schedule of injections 
being once per 12 weeks for triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month (with subjects in this group 
receiving a total of two injections, one each at baseline and Week 12), or once per 4 weeks for 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month (with subjects in this group receiving a total of six injections, 
one each at baseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20). The subjects visit the study site every 
4 weeks until Week 24, with the exception of the subgroup participating in the full PK and 
exploratory PD evaluations (up to 32 subjects, including up to 16 from each treatment group; 
to be enrolled at selected sites), who will have additional study visits. "Add back" treatment 
(recommended as, but not limited to, tibolone 2.5 mg once daily) may be administered after 
12 weeks if needed based on the investigator’s judgement. After 24 weeks' treatment, the 
subject will be followed up once every 4 weeks via telephone (except for subjects receiving 
triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and participating in the full PK/PD subgroup, who will visit 
the study site) until menses recovery or Week 40 (whichever is earlier). The first visit after the 
menses recovery or Week 40 will be considered as the end of study visit. All subjects will 
attend the study site for the end of study visit. The principal study design features are 
summarised in Figure 1.

Treatment with GnRH agonists has been proven to be effective and well tolerated in patients

by E2 suppression. Triptorelin acetate PR 1-month has been marketed in China since 1999, 
and represents the current standard of care in the management of endometriosis. As the active 
substance of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month is the same, 
and triptorelin has a proven mode of activity, it is justified to use E2 suppression as the 
primary endpoint in this study to compare the efficacy and safety between both formulations. 
According to Chinese guidelines, the recommended duration of GnRH agonist treatment for 
endometriosis is 3 to 6 months [10]. The duration of treatment in this study is therefore 
consistent with local treatment guidelines. In order to mitigate the potential for 
hypoestrogenaemia-related symptoms subjects can receive "add back" treatment from 
Week 12. Therefore, the primary efficacy endpoint will be assessed at Week 12. The 
additional 12 weeks of treatment is to allow the collection of additional efficacy and safety 
data. 
As the appearance and the administration frequency of the two treatments are not identical, a 
double-blind study would have to include a "double-dummy" design, which would expose 
subjects to unnecessary additional injections. An open-label design has therefore been 
selected for this study. As the primary efficacy endpoint will be based on an objective 
laboratory parameter, which will be evaluated centrally, it is considered that the bias has been 
sufficiently minimised to support an open-label design. 
3.2 
Endpoints and Evaluations 
3.2.1 
Primary Efficacy Endpoint and Evaluation 
The percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12. The primary 
endpoint will be evaluated based on centralised bioanalysis of serum samples for E2.  
3.2.2 
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints and Evaluations 
Secondary endpoints for this study include:  
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Weeks 4 and 8. 
• 
Percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤110 pmol/L or 30 pg/mL) at Weeks 4, 8 
and 12. 
• 
Change in endometriosis-associated pelvic pain (by 10 cm visual analogue scale 
(VAS)) at Weeks 4, 8 and 12 compared to baseline. 
• 
E2, FSH and LH concentrations at Weeks 4, 8 and 12. 
• 
Time to menses recovery. 
3.2.3 
Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Endpoints and Evaluations 
A full triptorelin PK analysis will be conducted in a subgroup of up to 16 subjects in each 
treatment group, to be enrolled at selected sites. Sparse PK samples will be taken in all 
subjects (in addition to the full PK/PD subgroup) at Day 1 (baseline), and Weeks 4, 8, 12 
and 24. Additional hormone samples (E2, FSH and LH) will be collected for PD assessments 
at Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 32 in the full PK/PD subgroup. 
Noncompartmental analysis will only be performed on the PK data collected for the PK/PD 
subgroup to assess the PK parameters for the triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin 
acetate PR 1-month formulations. Population PK analysis (modelling) will be performed on 
PK data from all subjects. 
3.2.4 
Exploratory Efficacy Endpoints and Evaluations 
Exploratory endpoints for this study include:

• 
The PK/PD relationship will be explored (PD markers being E2, FSH and LH). 
3.2.5 
Safety Endpoints and Evaluations 
The safety and tolerability of triptorelin will be assessed by evaluating the occurrence of 
adverse events (AEs) throughout the study, clinical laboratory parameters (biochemistry, 
haematology and urinalysis) test results and electrocardiogram (ECG) findings at screening, 
Week 12 and Week 24, serum hormone (E2, FSH and LH) concentrations at Week 40 (for 
those subjects whose menses do not recover at Week 40), vital signs (blood pressure and heart 
rate) measurements at each visit during treatment and end of study visit, physical/pelvic 
examination at screening, Week 12 and Week 24, pelvic type B ultrasound at screening (or 
within 1 month prior to screening), Week 12 (optional) and Week 24, and urinary pregnancy 
test at screening and baseline. 
3.3 
Randomisation and Blinding 
This is an open-label study, and there is no blinding. The sponsor’s randomisation manager, a 
statistician independent from the study, will prepare the master randomisation list for this 
study. This list will be performed in blocks and will be based on a computer-generated 
randomisation list. It will be stratified according to endometriotic surgical history (previous or 
no previous surgery) and the severity of endometriosis-associated pelvic pain (VAS >3 or 
≤3 cm), and will be generated with a balanced ratio (1 triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month to 1 
triptorelin PR 1-month). 
Subjects meeting the randomisation criteria will be allocated a randomisation number through 
an interactive web response system (IWRS) at baseline (Visit 2). This allocation will be 
performed in the order in which they enter the randomised study period and according to their 
endometriotic surgical history and severity of endometriosis-associated pelvic pain at 
baseline. The IWRS will assign subjects to one of two treatment groups based on a predefined 
randomisation list. A treatment number will be allocated by the IWRS each time drug is 
dispensed, according to the allocated treatment group. The IWRS will also manage all the 
logistical aspects of treatment (e.g. drug supplies; replacement of lost, damaged, quarantined, 
expiring or expired kits). 
The investigator will under no circumstances change the randomisation number, the treatment 
number or the treatment arm allocated to the subject. 
The IWRS will provide investigators, site coordinators and project team members with a 
24-hour a day, 7-day a week service. Additional details may be found in the IWRS reference 
manual to be provided to each site. In case of technical, randomisation or dispensation 
queries, a 24-hour helpline will be available: see supporting information in the investigator 
site file. 
Recruitment will stop once approximately 300 subjects have been randomised. Randomised 
subjects who terminate their study participation for any reason before starting the treatment 
will retain their randomisation number and treatment number (these numbers will not be 
reused). The next subject is given another randomisation number and another treatment 
number, even if she should receive the same treatment. Randomised subjects who leave the 
study early will not be replaced.

The sponsor’s randomisation manager will keep the master randomisation list. A copy of this 
list will be confidentially supplied to the contract research organisation (CRO) in charge of 
the IWRS. The master list and the copy supplied to the CRO in charge of the IWRS will be 
kept confidential in a secure location. Access to the randomisation list must be restricted until 
authorisation is given to release it for final analysis. 
3.4 
Study Treatments and Dosage 
The test product, triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month, will be administered as an intramuscular 
injection containing 15 mg triptorelin pamoate, once every 12 weeks. A more detailed 
description of administration procedures is given in Section 6.1.  
The comparator is triptorelin acetate PR 1-month, the triptorelin formulation commercially 
approved for the treatment of endometriosis in China. The comparator will be administered as 
an intramuscular injection containing 3.75 mg triptorelin acetate, once every 4 weeks. 
A more detailed description of administration procedures is given in Section 6.1.2.  
The IMP will be packaged by Chemistry, Manufacturing and Control-Supply Chain 
(CMC-SC; Beaufour Ipsen Industrie, Rue Ethe Virton, 28100, Dreux, France) and delivered 
to the interim storage facility (ISF) in China, and then to study sites. A sufficient quantity of 
IMP will be supplied as well as an acknowledgement of receipt form. 
The sponsor’s representative will receive: a Certificate of Analysis for which batch of IMP 
has been used under their study and the Certificate of Compliance which reflects the product 
release statement.  
The core label texts for all packaging units will be translated or adjusted, to be in compliance 
with applicable regulatory requirements, national laws in force and in accordance with the 
local languages. A description of the core text of the IMP labels is displayed below: 
• 
Name, address and telephone number of the sponsor

The investigator, or designee, will only dispense IMPs to subjects included in this study. Each 
subject will only be given the IMP carrying his/her number. The dispensing for each subject 
will be documented in the electronic case report form (eCRF). 
3.5 
Study Duration 
This study will consist of a screening period of up to 5 weeks, a 24-week open-label treatment 
period and a follow up period of up to 16 weeks. The duration of the study is a minimum of 
24 to 40 weeks, plus up to 5 weeks for the screening period.

The subject’s participation in the study will be considered to have ended at the time of the last 
visit.  
The overall duration of the study will be approximately 32 months, including approximately 
21 months' recruitment. The study will be considered to have started when the first subject has 
been screened. The study will be considered to have ended after the last subject has completed 
the last visit in the study. 
3.6 
Stopping Rules and Discontinuation Criteria 
There are no formal rules for early termination of this study. During the conduct of the study, 
serious adverse events (SAEs) will be reviewed (see Section 8.1.4) as they are reported from 
the study centre to identify any safety concerns. The study may be terminated by the sponsor 
at any time. 
A subject may discontinue participation in the study at any time for any reason (for 
example, lack of efficacy, withdrawal of consent, AE). The investigator and/or sponsor can 
withdraw a subject from the study at any time for any reason (for example, protocol violation 
or deviation as defined in Section 12.1.2, noncompliance with the protocol conditions or AE). 
3.7 
Investigational Medicinal Product Preparation Storage and Accountability 
3.7.1 
Investigational Medicinal Product Storage and Security 
The investigator, or an approved representative (for example, pharmacist), will ensure that all 
IMP and any other study-related material is stored in a secured area, under recommended 
temperature-monitored storage conditions (below +25°C), in accordance with applicable 
regulatory requirements. 
3.7.2 
Investigational Medicinal Product Preparation 
The investigator, or an approved representative (for example, pharmacist), will ensure that all 
IMP is reconstituted and dispensed by qualified staff members. 
3.7.3 
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability 
All IMP and any other study-related material is to be accounted for on the IMP accountability 
log provided by the sponsor. It is essential that all used and unused supplies are retained for 
verification (by the sponsor or sponsor’s representative). The investigator should ensure 
adequate records are maintained in the IMP accountability log. The destruction of used and 
unused IMP should be carried out only after any discrepancies have been investigated and 
satisfactorily explained, and the reconciliation has been accepted. The IMP will be destroyed 
either on site or in the ISF. 
3.8 
Maintenance of Randomisation and Blinding 
The investigator will under no circumstances change the randomisation number and the 
treatment arm allocated to the subject via the IWRS. As this is an open-label study, there is no 
blinding of investigator or subjects. 
To mitigate any potential bias due to the open-label design of this study, E2, LH and FSH 
concentrations will be evaluated centrally. 
3.9 
Source Data Recorded on the Case Report Form 
Data will be collected in the eCRF in compliance with Food and Drug Administration 
(FDA) 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 11. As required by GCP, the 
sponsor-assigned monitor will verify, by direct reference to the source documents, that the 
data required by the protocol are accurately reported on the eCRF.

4.3 
Subject Withdrawal Criteria and Procedures 
In accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, each subject is free to withdraw from the 
study at any time. The investigator also has the right to withdraw a subject from the study in 
the event of concurrent illness, AEs, pregnancy (see Section 8.1.5), or other reasons 
concerning the health or wellbeing of the subject, or in the case of lack of cooperation. In 
addition, a subject may be withdrawn from the study as described in Sections 3.6, 6.2 
and 8.1.7. 
Should a subject decide to withdraw from the study after administration of the IMP, or should 
the investigator decide to withdraw the subject, all efforts will be made to complete and report 
the observations up to the time of withdrawal as thoroughly as possible. A complete final 
evaluation at the time of the subject’s withdrawal should be made (see Section 5.2.4.4) and an 
explanation given of why the subject is withdrawing or being withdrawn from the study. 
The reason for and date of withdrawal from the study must be recorded on the eCRF. If a 
subject withdraws consent, every attempt will be made to determine the reason. If the reason 
for withdrawal is an AE or a clinically significant laboratory test abnormality, monitoring will 
continue until the event has resolved or stabilised, until the subject is referred to the care of a 
local health care professional, or until a determination of a cause unrelated to the IMP or 
study procedure is made. The specific AE or test result(s) must be recorded on the eCRF. All 
evaluations should be performed, according to the protocol, on the last day the subject 
receives IMP, or as soon as possible thereafter.

Study Visits 
5.2.1 
Procedures for Screening and Enrolment (Visit 1; up to -5 weeks) 
A signed and dated informed consent form will be obtained before screening procedures. 
Evaluations obtained as part of routine medical care and performed during the screening 
period may be used in place of the study specific evaluations. Subjects will acknowledge and 
agree to the possible use of this information for the study by giving informed consent.  
After informed consent is obtained, subjects who are screened will be allocated a subject 
number. All screened subjects must be identifiable throughout the study. The investigator will 
maintain a list of subject numbers and names to enable records to be found at a later date if 
required. 
Rescreening will not be permitted in this study. 
The screening visit (Visit 1) will take place up to 5 weeks prior to the first dose of IMP being 
administered. The following assessments will be performed at screening: 
• 
Demographic data (date of birth, sex, ethnicity, and race) 
• 
Significant medical or surgical history, including ongoing medical conditions, 
AEs, gynaecological history, date of last menses 
•

5.2.4 
Procedures during Follow Up Period (Visit 9 to End of Study) 
The purpose of the follow up period is to monitor menses recovery. Visits 9, 10 and 
11 (Weeks 28, 32 and 36) will be conducted by telephone, primarily to establish if subjects' 
menses have recovered. If menses recover during the follow up period, subjects should attend 
the study site within 15 days after the first day of menses recovery. If there is no menses 
recovery by Week 40, the subject should attend the study site at Week 40 (Day 281±3). The 
first visit after menses recovery, or Week 40 (whichever is earlier) will be considered the end 
of study visit (see Section 5.2.4.4). 
5.2.4.1

End of Study Visit or Early Withdrawal Visit 
The end of study visit will be the first visit within 15 days after the first day of menses 
recovery, or at Week 40 (Day 281±3), whichever is earlier. Subjects who withdraw from the 
study early will also attend an end of study visit. 
Subjects who participate in the study in compliance with the protocol for 24 weeks of study 
drug administration will be considered to have completed study treatment. Subjects who 
participate in the study in compliance with the protocol for the 24 weeks of study drug 
administration, and complete the follow up period, will be considered to have completed the 
study.  
For subjects who complete the study, or for those who withdraw prematurely from the study, 
final evaluations will be performed on the last day the subject receives the study drug, or as 
soon as possible afterwards. Subjects with ongoing AEs or clinically significant laboratory

TREATMENT OF SUBJECTS 
6.1 
Study Drugs Administered 
At screening, subjects will be allocated a subject number. Following confirmation of 
eligibility for the study at baseline (Visit 2, Day 1), subjects will be allocated a randomisation 
number, and assigned to one of the following treatment groups: 
• 
triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month, administered as an intramuscular injection once 
every 12 weeks (a total of 2 injections). 
or 
• 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month, administered as an intramuscular injection once 
every 4 weeks (a total of 6 injections). 
6.1.1 
Triptorelin Pamoate PR 3-month 
The test product is triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month, which comprises microparticles with the 
active ingredient incorporated in the copolymer. The product is presented as a slightly yellow 
freeze-dried cake or powder containing triptorelin pamoate; D, L-lactide-coglycolide polymer, 
mannitol, sodium carmellose and polysorbate 80. The solvent provided for injection is a 2 mL 
ampoule of mannitol and water. This product is marketed in China as Triptorelin pamoate for 
injection 15 mg, for the treatment of prostate cancer only. 
Triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month is to be administered by the intramuscular route only. The 
powder is reconstituted with the solvent provided and injected immediately after 
reconstitution. The product is administered as a single intramuscular injection every 12 weeks 
(Day 1 and Week 12), as indicated in Table 2. 
6.1.2 
Triptorelin Acetate PR 1-month 
The comparator product is triptorelin acetate PR 1-month, which is formulated as 
microparticles. The comparator is presented as a practically white, freeze-dried cake or 
powder containing triptorelin acetate; D, L-lactide-coglycolide polymer, mannitol, sodium 
carmellose and polysorbate 80. The solvent provided for injection is a 2 mL ampoule of 
mannitol and water. This product is marketed in China as Diphereline 3.75 mg for various 
indications including the treatment of endometriosis. 
Triptorelin acetate PR 1-month is to be administered by the intramuscular route only. The 
powder is reconstituted with the solvent provided and injected immediately after 
reconstitution. The product is administered as a single intramuscular injection every 4 weeks 
(Day 1 and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20) as indicated in Table 2. 
6.2 
Concomitant Medication/Therapy 
Any prior or concomitant therapy or medication given to a subject within 6 months prior to 
screening or during the study will be indicated on the eCRF. Dose and generic name or 
tradename will be indicated. 
The following concomitant therapies or medications will not be permitted during the study: 
• 
GnRH agonists other than the IMP. 
• 
Other hormonal treatments (for example oestrogens, progestogens, danazol, 
gerstrinone, cyproterone acetate, and non-barrier contraception, etc). 
• 
Surgery. 
• 
Any concomitant therapies which, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere 
with the evaluation of study treatment efficacy and safety.

• 
Traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of endometriosis. 
As the primary endpoint will be assessed at Week 12, "add back" treatment will not be 
permitted before that time. If "add back" treatment is needed, according to the investigator's 
judgement, it can be initiated after the primary endpoint evaluation at Week 12. The reason 
for and date/time of all doses of "add back" treatment will be recorded in the eCRF. "Add 
back" treatment is recommended to be, but not limited to, tibolone at a dose of 2.5 mg once 
daily. 
6.3 
Procedures for Monitoring Subject Compliance 
The investigator will be responsible for monitoring subject compliance. Subjects can be 
withdrawn from the study at any time if the investigator or the sponsor determines that the 
subject is not in compliance with the study protocol. 
For this study, all doses of IMP will be administered to the subjects at the study centre by 
study site staff. Administration of IMP must occur at the study day indicated ±3 days. 
Administration compliance will be assessed by comparing the number of doses expected with 
the number of doses administered. Any missing injection at Visits 2, 3 or 4 (Day 1, Week 4 or 
Week 8) will be regarded as a major protocol violation. 
Where a subject is consistently noncompliant with IMP intake they should be discontinued 
from IMP/withdrawn from the study. Please refer to Section 4.3 for the criteria for 
discontinuing the subject from IMP.

7.3 
Methods and Timing of Assessing, Recording, and Analysing Efficacy Data 
The methods for assessing efficacy data are described below, and the timing of efficacy 
assessments is discussed in Section 5. Procedures for recording efficacy data are discussed in 
Section 14.1, and methods of analyses are discussed in Section 10.4.6. 
7.3.1 
Oestradiol, 
Follicle 
Stimulating 
Hormone 
and 
Luteinising 
Hormone 
Concentrations 
Assessments of serum E2, FSH and LH concentrations will be performed at study visits at 
Day 1 (baseline) and Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 24, in accordance with Table 2. A further assessment 
will be conducted at Week 40 in subjects whose menses have not recovered by this timepoint. 
This assessment is considered a safety assessment, and is discussed in Section 8.2.5. In 
addition, serum E2, FSH and LH concentrations will also be determined at Weeks 1, 2, 3 
and 32 for subjects in the full PK/PD subgroup, as described in Section 9.2. All E2, FSH and 
LH concentrations will be evaluated by the central laboratory. 
7.3.1.1 
Oestradiol Concentrations  
Measurement of serum E2 concentrations will be performed in a central laboratory in 
accordance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). All details of the sample collection, 
handling, shipment, methodology and reference ranges will be provided in the Study Manual 
and archived in the trial master file (TMF). 
Castration rate will be assessed using a cutoff E2 concentration of 184 pmol/L (50 pg/mL) for 
the primary and secondary efficacy endpoints, and 110 pmol/L (30 pg/mL) for the secondary 
efficacy endpoint only. 
7.3.1.2 
Luteinising Hormone and Follicle Stimulating Hormone Concentrations 
Measurement of serum LH and FSH concentrations will be performed in a central laboratory 
in accordance with GLP. All details of the sample collection, handling, shipment, 
methodology and reference ranges will be provided in the Study Manual and archived in the 
TMF. 
7.3.2 
Endometriosis-associated Pelvic Pain 
The severity of endometriosis-associated pain will be assessed by the subject at Day 1 
(baseline), Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, and at the end of study visit using a 10 cm VAS. 
Subjects will be asked to assess their most severe endometriosis-associated pain over the 
preceding 4 weeks. For the Day 1 (baseline) assessment, if subjects had undergone 
endometriotic surgery within the previous 4 weeks, they will be asked to assess their most 
severe endometriosis-associated pain postsurgery. The VAS to be used is presented in 
Appendix 1. 
7.3.3 
Recovery of Menses 
Status of menses recovery will be assessed at all study visits, including the follow-up period 
(Weeks 28, 32, 36 and at the end of study visit). The date of menses (if available) will be 
recorded at the end of study visit. Time to menses recovery will be defined as the time (in 
days) between the date of the last dose of study drug and the date of the first day that the 
subject observed menstrual bleeding of the next menses period. Any subjects withdrawing 
from the study without menstrual bleeding will be censored in this analysis at the date of 
withdrawal. Any subjects without menstrual bleeding prior to the end of study visit will be 
censored in this analysis at the date of the end of study visit.

ASSESSMENT OF SAFETY 
8.1 
Adverse Events 
Adverse events will be monitored from the time that the subject gives informed consent and 
throughout the study (see Section 3.5 for a definition of the study duration) and will be 
elicited by direct, nonleading questioning or by spontaneous reports. Further details for AE 
reporting can be found in Section 8.1.2. 
8.1.1 
Definition of an Adverse Event 
An AE is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration of a pre-
existing medical condition following or during exposure to a pharmaceutical product, whether 
or not considered causally related to the product. An undesirable medical condition can be 
symptoms (for example, nausea, chest pain), signs (for example, tachycardia, enlarged liver) 
or the abnormal results of an investigation (for example, laboratory findings, ECG). In clinical 
studies an AE can include an undesirable medical condition occurring at any time, including 
run in or washout periods, even if no IMP has been administered.  
This definition includes events occurring from the time of the subject giving informed consent 
until the end of the study (as defined in Section 3.5). 
8.1.2 
Categorisation of Adverse Events 
8.1.2.1 
Intensity Classification 
Adverse events will be classified as mild, moderate or severe according to the following 
criteria: 
• 
Mild: symptoms do not alter the subject’s normal functioning 
• 
Moderate: symptoms produce some degree of impairment to function, but are 
not hazardous, uncomfortable or embarrassing to the subject 
• 
Severe: symptoms definitely hazardous to wellbeing, significant impairment of 
function or incapacitation. 
8.1.2.2 
Causality Classification 
The relationship of an AE to IMP administration will be classified according to the following: 
• 
Related: reports including good reasons and sufficient information (for example

dechallenge and/or rechallenge) to assume a causal relationship with IMP 
administration in the sense that it is plausible, conceivable or likely. 
• 
Not related: reports including good reasons and sufficient information (for 
example implausible time sequence and/or attributable to concurrent disease or 
other drugs) to rule out a causal relationship with IMP administration. 
8.1.2.3 
Assessment of Expectedness 
The expectedness of an AE shall be determined by the sponsor according to the IB for an 
unapproved IMP, or the summary of product characteristics (SmPC) or package insert (PI) for 
an authorised medicinal product that is being used according to the terms and conditions of 
the marketing authorisation. If the IMP has marketing authorisations in several countries with 
different SmPCs or PIs, one will be selected as the reference document for assessing 
expectedness.

The reference document for assessing expectedness of AEs/event in this study will be the 
current (at time of study) triptorelin IB for triptorelin PR 3-month, and the PI (China) for 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month. 
8.1.2.4 
Laboratory Test Abnormalities 
Abnormalities in laboratory test values should only be reported as AEs if any of the following 
apply:  
• 
They result in a change in IMP schedule of administration (change in dosage, 
delay in administration, IMP discontinuation), 
• 
They require intervention or a diagnosis evaluation to assess the risk to the 
subject, 
• 
They are considered as clinically significant by the investigator. 
8.1.2.5 
Abnormal Physical Examination Findings  
Clinically significant changes, in the judgement of the investigator, in physical examination 
findings (abnormalities) will be recorded as AEs.  
8.1.2.6 
Other Investigation Abnormal Findings 
Abnormal test findings as judged by the investigator as clinically significant (for example, 
ECG changes) that result in a change in IMP dosage or administration schedule, or in 
discontinuation of the IMP, or require intervention or diagnostic evaluation to assess the risk 
to the subject, should be recorded as AEs.  
8.1.3 
Recording and Follow Up of Adverse Events 
At each visit, the subject should be asked a nonleading question such as: “How have you felt 
since the last assessment?” 
All observed or volunteered AEs, regardless of treatment group or suspected causal 
relationship to IMP, will be recorded on the AE page(s) of the eCRF. Events involving drug 
reactions, accidents, illnesses with onset during the treatment phase of the study, or 
exacerbations of pre-existing illnesses should be recorded, with the exception of 
endometriosis-related symptoms, which should only be recorded if they fulfil the criteria for 
an SAE (see Section 8.1.4). 
Any AEs already recorded and designated as ‘continuing’ should be reviewed at each 
subsequent assessment. 
For all AEs, the investigator must follow up and obtain information adequate both to 
determine the outcome of the AE and to assess whether it meets the criteria for classification 
as a SAE requiring immediate notification to the sponsor or its designated representative. For 
all AEs, sufficient information should be obtained by the investigator to determine the 
causality of the AE (i.e. IMP or other illness). The investigator is required to assess causality 
and record that assessment on the eCRF. Follow up of the AE, after the date of IMP 
discontinuation, is required if the AE or its sequelae persist. Follow up is required until the 
event or its sequelae resolve or stabilise at a level acceptable to the investigator and the 
sponsor’s clinical monitor or his/her designated representative. 
8.1.4 
Reporting of Serious Adverse Events 
All SAEs (as defined below) regardless of treatment group or suspected relationship to IMP 
must be reported immediately (within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event) 
using the fax number specified at the beginning of this protocol. If the immediate report is

submitted by telephone, this must be followed by detailed written reports using the SAE 
report form. 
An SAE is any AE that: 
(1) 
Results in death, 
(2) 
Is life threatening, that is any event that places the subject at immediate risk of 
death from the event as it occurred. It does not include an event that, had it 
occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death, 
(3) 
Results in in-patient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalisation, 
excluding admission for social or administrative reasons, 
(4) 
Results in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, where disability is a 
substantial disruption of a person's ability to conduct normal life functions, 
(5) 
Results in congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of a subject who 
received the IMP, 
(6) 
Is an important medical event that may not result in death, be life threatening, or 
require hospitalisation when, based upon appropriate medical judgement, may 
jeopardise the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to 
prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition. Examples of such medical 
events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an 
emergency room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in 
in-patient hospitalisation, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse. 
In addition to the above criteria, any additional AE that the sponsor or an investigator 
considers serious should be immediately reported to the sponsor and included in the corporate 
SAEs database system. 
• 
Hospitalisation is defined as any in-patient admission (even if less than 
24 hours). For chronic or long term in-patients, in-patient admission also 
includes transfer within the hospital to an acute/intensive care in-patient unit. 
• 
Prolongation of hospitalisation is defined as any extension of an in-patient 
hospitalisation beyond the stay anticipated/required in relation to the original 
reason for the initial admission, as determined by the investigator or treating 
physician. For protocol-specified hospitalisation in clinical studies, prolongation 
is defined as any extension beyond the length of stay described in the protocol. 
Prolongation in the absence of a precipitating, treatment emergent, clinical AE 
(i.e. not associated with the development of a new AE or worsening of a 
pre-existing condition) may meet criteria for "seriousness" but is not an adverse 
experience and thus is not subject to immediate reporting to the sponsor.  
• 
Preplanned or elective treatments/surgical procedures should be noted in the 
subject’s screening documentation. Hospitalisation for a preplanned or elective 
treatment/surgical procedure should not be reported as an SAE unless there are 
complications or sequelae which meet the criteria for seriousness described 
above. 
Any SAE must be reported immediately (within 24 hours) using the fax number specified at 
the beginning of this protocol, independent of the circumstances or suspected cause, if it 
occurs or comes to the attention of the investigator at any time during the study period. 
Any AE/SAE with a suspected causal relationship to IMP administration occurring at any 
other time after completion of the study must be promptly reported.

The following information is the minimum that must be provided to the sponsor within 
24 hours for each SAE: 
• 
Study number 
• 
Centre number 
• 
Subject number 
• 
AE 
• 
Investigator's name and contact details 
The additional information included in the SAE form must be provided to the sponsor or 
representative as soon as it is available. The investigator should always provide an assessment 
of causality for each event reported to the sponsor. Upon receipt of the initial report, the 
sponsor will ask for the investigator's causality assessment if it was not provided with the 
initial report. 
The investigator should report a diagnosis or a syndrome rather than individual signs or 
symptoms. The investigator should also try to separate a primary AE considered as the 
foremost untoward medical occurrence from secondary AEs which occurred as complications. 
8.1.5 
Pregnancy 
Pregnancy itself is not regarded as an AE unless there is a suspicion that the IMP has 
interfered with a contraceptive method. If pregnancy occurs during the study, the outcome of 
the pregnancy will then need to be collected poststudy and it may be necessary to discontinue 
administration of the IMP.  
Information regarding pregnancies must be collected on the AE page of the eCRF and 
reported to the sponsor as an SAE. The sponsor will request further information from the 
investigator as to the course and outcome of the pregnancy using the Standard Pregnancy 
Outcome Report Form.  
The investigator must instruct all female subjects to inform them immediately should they 
become pregnant during the study. The investigator should counsel the subject, discuss the 
risks of continuing with the pregnancy and the possible effects on the foetus. Monitoring of 
the subject should continue until conclusion of the pregnancy, which may involve follow up 
after the subject’s involvement in the study has ended. 
Pregnancies with a conception date within 150 days (for subjects receiving triptorelin 
pamoate PR 3-month), or 90 days (for subjects receiving triptorelin acetate PR 1-month) after 
subject’s last dose of the study drug must also be reported to the investigator for onward 
reporting to the sponsor. 
8.1.6 
Deaths 
All AEs resulting in death during the study period, must be reported as an SAE within 
24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event.  
The convention for recording death is as follows:  
• 
AE term: lead cause of death  
• 
Outcome: fatal. 
The only exception is if the cause of death is unknown (i.e. sudden or unexplained death), in 
which case the AE term may be “death” or “sudden death”. 
8.1.7 
Discontinuation/Withdrawal due to Adverse Events/Serious Adverse Events 
Discontinuation/withdrawal 
due 
to 
AEs 
should 
be 
distinguished 
from 
discontinuation/withdrawal due to insufficient response to the IMP (see Section 4.3).

If the IMP is discontinued due to an SAE, it must be reported immediately, as described in 
Section 8.1.4. 
In all cases, the investigator must ensure the subject receives appropriate medical follow up 
(see Section 8.1.3). 
8.1.8 
Reporting to Competent Authorities/IECs/IRBs/Other Investigators 
The sponsor will ensure that processes are in place for submission of reports all SAEs 
occurring during the study to the CA, IECs and other investigators concerned by the IMP. 
Reporting will be in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. 
8.2 
Clinical Laboratory Tests 
Blood and urine samples will be collected at screening (Visit 1), Week 12 (Visit 5) and 
Week 24 (Visit 8) for the evaluation of haematology, blood biochemistry and urinalysis.  
The investigator will review the safety laboratory test results, document the review, and 
record any clinically relevant changes occurring or observed during the study in the AE 
section of the eCRF (see Section 8.1.2.4 for abnormal laboratory tests that should be recorded 
as AEs).  
All clinically relevant abnormal laboratory tests occurring during the study will be repeated at 
appropriate intervals until they return to baseline or to a level deemed acceptable by the 
investigator and the sponsor’s clinical monitor (or his/her designated representative) or until 
the abnormality is explained by an appropriate diagnosis.  
8.2.1 
Haematology 
Blood samples (2 mL) will be collected in a potassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid 
(EDTA) tube to assess the following parameters: red blood cell (RBC) count, haemoglobin, 
haematocrit, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean 
corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), white blood cell (WBC) count with 
differential (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils) and platelet 
count. 
8.2.2 
Blood Biochemistry 
Blood samples (2.5 mL) will be collected in an activator gel tube to assess the following 
parameters: 
• 
urea, creatinine, total bilirubin, conjugated bilirubin; 
• 
chloride, bicarbonate, sodium, potassium, calcium, inorganic phosphate; 
• 
alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, 
gamma glutamyl transferase; 
• 
albumin, total protein, total cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose. 
8.2.3 
Urinalysis 
Fresh urine samples (at least 10 mL) will be collected to assess the following parameters: pH, 
protein, ketones, glucose, bilirubin, blood, urobilinogen and specific gravity by dipstick.  
8.2.4 
Pregnancy Test 
A human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) urine test will be performed for subjects at 
screening (Visit 1) and baseline (Visit 2, Day 1) and analysed locally. Any subject becoming 
pregnant during the study will be withdrawn. All pregnancies that occur during the study are 
to be reported as described in Section 8.1.5.

Hormones 
Measurements of serum E2, FSH and LH concentrations will be performed at a central 
laboratory at Week 40, only if a subject's menses has not recovered by this timepoint. 
Hormone measurements at other timepoints are considered efficacy assessments, and are 
described, along with methods for the assessment of E2, FSH and LH concentrations, in 
Section 7.3.1. 
8.3 
Physical/Pelvic Examination 
Physical examinations, including pelvic examination, will be conducted at screening (Visit 1), 
Week 12 (Visit 5) and Week 24 (Visit 8). Subject height and weight will be measured at 
screening only. 
Any clinically significant physical examination findings (abnormalities) observed during the 
study will be reported as AEs. Any physical examination findings (abnormalities) persisting at 
the end of the study will be followed by the investigator until resolution or until reaching a 
clinically stable endpoint. 
8.4 
Pelvic Type B Ultrasound Scan 
A pelvic type B ultrasound investigation will be performed at screening (Visit 1; a result 
within 1 month prior to screening will be acceptable) and at Week 24 (Visit 8). An additional 
(optional) scan may be conducted at Week 12 (Visit 5) based on the subject's condition, as 
judged by the investigator.  
Any clinically significant pelvic type B ultrasound findings (abnormalities) observed during 
the study will be reported as AEs. 
8.5 
Vital Signs 
Blood pressure and heart rate will be recorded at screening (Visit 1), baseline (Visit 2, Day 1) 
Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 (Visits 3 to 8), and at the end of study/early withdrawal visit. 
Blood pressure and heart rate will be recorded after five minutes rest in a sitting position. 
8.6 
Electrocardiography 
An ECG analysis will be included as a safety evaluation/endpoint in this study. 
The computerised 12-lead ECGs will be recorded at screening (Visit 1), Week 12 (Visit 5) 
and Week 24 (Visit 8). 
Specific machine details will be provided in the Study Manual. Sinus rhythm, heart rate, PR 
interval, QRS interval, QT interval/corrected QT interval (QTc) will be recorded, as well as 
clinical significance. A paper copy of each ECG trace will be printed; these copies must be 
signed by the investigator and identified with subject screening number, initials, date of 
assessment and study visit. The ECG will be recorded with the subject in supine position after 
five minutes of rest until four regular consecutive complexes are available.  
All ECGs will be evaluated by qualified persons at the study site, and any clinically 
significant abnormalities observed during the study will be recorded as AEs.

ASSESSMENTS OF PHARMACOKINETICS/PHARMACODYNAMICS 
Sparse PK samples will be taken in all subjects (in addition to the full PK/PD subgroup) at 
Day 1 (baseline) and Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 24 (see Table 2). A full triptorelin PK analysis will 
be performed in a subgroup of up to 16 subjects in each treatment group (the full PK/PD 
subgroup; to be enrolled at selected sites). Full PK samples will be collected in accordance 
with Table 3 and Table 4 for subjects in this subgroup. Additional hormone samples (E2, FSH 
and LH) will also be collected at Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 32 in this subgroup.

Pharmacokinetics 
9.1.1 
Sample Collection 
Blood samples for the assay of triptorelin will be collected in Vacutainer tubes at the 
timepoints indicated in Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4. Full details of sample collection, 
processing, required labelling, storage and the shipment process for these samples will be 
documented in the Study Manual. 
On predetermined dates, samples will be shipped to the central laboratory under frozen 
conditions. For security reasons, aliquots of each sample will be shipped separately. The batch 
containing the second aliquot will not be shipped until the first one has arrived.  
Upon receipt at the central laboratory, samples will be checked and stored until analysis. 
Surplus plasma samples may be shipped outside China for the purposes of cross-validating the 
bioanalytical method used in this study. Surplus plasma samples will be managed 
anonymously, and will not be identifiable. 
9.1.2 
Analytical Procedures 
The concentration of triptorelin will be analysed using a validated specific and sensitive 
method, and in accordance with GLP. All details of sample collection, handling, shipment, 
methodology and reference ranges will be provided in the Study Manual and archived in the 
TMF. 
9.1.3 
Data Analysis 
Details of the statistical and analytical methods to be applied to the PK data are provided in 
Section 10.4.4. 
9.2 
Pharmacodynamics 
Additional PD assessments will be conducted on the full PK/PD subgroup, comprising up to 
32 subjects enrolled at selected sites. 
Additional blood samples will be collected at Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 and Week 32 (in 
accordance with Table 3) for the analysis of E2, FSH and LH, as described in Section 7.3.1. 
9.3 
Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics Relationship 
A PK/PD analysis (PK/PD modelling) will be performed for triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month 
and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month exploring the relationship between plasma triptorelin 
concentrations and serum E2, FSH and LH, where possible.  
Additional population PK/PD modelling may be conducted. This analysis will be described in

STATISTICS 
10.1 
Analyses Sets 
The following analysis sets will be used during statistical analyses: 
• 
Screened set: All subjects screened (i.e. who signed the informed consent). 
• 
Randomised set: All subjects randomised (i.e. who were randomly allocated to 
a treatment group). 
• 
Safety set: All subjects who received at least one dose of study medication.  
• 
Full analysis set (FAS): All randomised subjects who received at least one dose 
of study medication with at least one baseline and at least one post-baseline 
assessment of the primary efficacy parameter. 
• 
Per protocol (PP) set: All subjects in the FAS for whom no major protocol 
violations/deviations occurred. 
• 
Full PK profile analysis set (for noncompartmental analysis (NCA)): Subjects 
in the full PK/PD subgroup who have received at least one dose of IMP and have 
no major protocol deviations affecting the PK variables, and who have a 
sufficient number of PK concentration measurements to estimate the main PK 
parameters (maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) and time to 
maximum observed plasma concentration (tmax), plus area under the plasma 
concentration-time curve for the dosing interval (AUCτ) for subjects receiving 
triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month). 
• 
Sparse PK sampling analysis set: All subjects who received at least one dose of 
IMP and have no major protocol deviations affecting the PK variables and who 
have at least one valid plasma concentration. 
• 
PD analysis set: All subjects in the full PK/PD subgroup who have a sufficient 
number of PD measurements. 
• 
PK/PD relationships set: All subjects who receive at least one dose of IMP and

10.1.1 
Data Sets Analysed 
Analysis of the primary and secondary efficacy endpoints will be performed on the FAS and 
the PP set. All exploratory efficacy analyses will be performed on the FAS. PK analyses will 
be performed on the full PK profile analysis set and the sparse PK sampling analysis set, as 
appropriate. 
The analyses of safety data will be performed based on the safety set. 
10.1.2 
Subject Allocation and Reasons for Exclusion from the Analyses 
Any major protocol deviation types will be described in the Protocol Deviation Document 
(PDD) and their impact on inclusion in each analysis set for any subject will be specified. The 
final list of protocol deviations impacting each analysis set will be reviewed during the blind 
data review meeting held prior to database lock, without reference to treatment group 
assignment for individual subjects. 
10.2 
Sample Size Determination 
Sample size was estimated based on data from Ipsen Study E-28-52014-705.[5] Assuming the 
percentage of subjects castrated at Week 12 of triptorelin acetate PR 1-month treatment is no 
less than 92%, a sample size of 133 subjects in each treatment group will have 85% power to

demonstrate the noninferiority of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month to the comparator, when the 
lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the difference in percentage of subjects 
castrated at Week 12 between the treatment groups is >-10% and with a 0.025 one-sided 
type I error rate.  
Assuming that the dropout rate will be around 10%, a sample size of 300 randomised subjects 
in total is planned for this study. 
10.3 
Significance Testing and Estimations 
A two sided 95% CI for the difference of the two castration rates (triptorelin pamoate PR 
3-month treatment group minus triptorelin acetate PR 1-month treatment group) will be 
calculated. If and only if the lower limit of the 95% CI is greater than the lower limit of 
equivalence region (-10%), triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month treatment will be confirmed to be 
noninferior to triptorelin acetate PR 1-month treatment. 
10.4 
Statistical/Analytical Methods 
Statistical analyses will be performed by an external CRO, managed by the sponsor’s 
Biometry Department. 
A statistical analysis plan (SAP) describing the planned statistical analysis in detail with 
tables, figures and listings (TFLs) templates will be developed as a separate document and 
will be approved prior to enrolment of the first subject into the study. 
Statistical evaluation will be performed using Statistical Analysis System (SAS®) (version 9). 
10.4.1 
Demographic and Other Baseline Characteristics 
In order to assess the balance of treatment groups, descriptive summary statistics (number of 
available observations (n), mean, standard deviation (SD), median, minimum, maximum) or 
frequency counts of demographic (age, age category, ethnicity, race) and baseline data 
(endometriosis history, significant medical/surgical history, concomitant disease (predosing 
AEs and ongoing medical history), prior medications and therapies including those for 
endometriosis) will be presented by treatment group and overall for the randomised, safety (if 
different from randomised) and PP sets and the FAS. 
10.4.2 
Homogeneity of Treatment Groups 
In order to assess the homogeneity of treatment groups at baseline, treatment groups will be 
compared descriptively for demographic and baseline characteristics (see Section 10.4.1). 
10.4.3 
Subject Disposition and Withdrawals 
The numbers and percentages of subjects enrolled and included in each of the PP set, FAS and 
safety set will be tabulated overall, by treatment group and by centre. The reasons for subject 
exclusions from each of the analysis sets will also be tabulated. In addition, the numbers of 
subjects who were randomised, discontinued and completed will be tabulated by treatment 
group and overall. Primary reasons for discontinuation of study treatment will be tabulated. 
10.4.4 
Pharmacokinetic Data 
Individual plasma concentrations of triptorelin for triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month will be listed and summarised by timepoint using descriptive 
statistics for continuous variables (n, mean, median, SD, minimum, maximum, geometric 
mean, and geometric coefficient of variation (assuming log normally distributed data)). Linear 
and semilogarithmic plots of individual and mean plasma concentration time profiles, as well 
as spaghetti plots will be reported separately for subjects in the triptorelin pamoate PR 
3-month full PK/PD subgroup.

The PK analysis of triptorelin concentrations will be performed using an NCA approach using 
the Phoenix WinNonlin PK program version 6.3 or higher. The following PK parameters will 
be calculated for the triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month: 
• 
Minimum observed plasma concentration during the dosing interval (Cmin) after 
the first dose and at steady state 
• 
Cmax after the first and last administration (steady state) 
• 
tmax after the first and last administration (steady state) 
• 
AUCτ after first and last administration (steady state) estimated by the log linear 
trapezoidal rule 
The following PK parameters will be calculated for the triptorelin acetate PR 1-month group: 
• 
Cmax and tmax after the first dose 
• 
Cmin after the first, and each subsequent administration (steady state) 
Additional PK parameters may be calculated, if appropriate. 
Descriptive statistics of PK parameters will be presented for the full PK profile analysis set. 
PK parameters will be summarised by n, median, minimum, maximum, geometric mean, and 
geometric coefficient of variation except for tmax where only n, median, minimum and 
maximum values will be reported.  
In addition to the NCA described above, analyses will be performed in all subjects 
(population PK modelling), to assess the PK profile of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and 
triptorelin acetate PR 1-month in all subjects. These analyses will be described in a separate 
data analysis plan and reported in a standalone report. 
10.4.5 
Pharmacodynamic Data 
A PK/PD analysis (PK/PD modelling) will be performed for triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month 
and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month exploring the relationship between plasma triptorelin 
concentrations and serum E2, FSH and LH, where possible.  
Additional population PK/PD may be conducted. This analysis will be described in a separate 
data analysis plan and reported in a standalone report.

Efficacy Evaluation 
10.4.6.1 Primary Efficacy Endpoint 
The primary efficacy variable is the percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 
50 pg/mL) at Week 12. 
The number and percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12 
will be summarised by treatment group and the difference, including 2-sided 95% CI for the 
difference between treatment groups will be presented. If the lower limit of the 95% CI for the 
difference in percentage of subjects castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Week 12 
between the triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month and triptorelin acetate PR 1-month is >-10%, 
noninferiority of triptorelin pamoate PR 3-month will be confirmed.  
10.4.6.2 Secondary Efficacy Endpoints 
Percentage of Subjects Castrated (E2≤184 pmol/L or 50 pg/mL) at Weeks 4 and 8 and 
Percentage of Subjects Castrated (E2≤110 pmol/L or 30 pg/mL) at Weeks 4, 8 and 12: 
The number and percentage of subjects castrated (according to each criterion) will be

All AEs will be coded according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities 
(MedDRA) version current at the start of the study, and will be classified by MedDRA 
preferred term and system organ class. AE listings will be presented by subject, system organ 
class and preferred term. 
The incidence of all reported treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and SAEs will be 
tabulated by treatment group and overall. In addition, summary tables will be presented by 
maximum intensity, drug relationship and TEAEs associated with premature withdrawal of 
study medication. 
A TEAE is defined as any AE that occurs from receiving the first dose of study drug to the 
end of study/early withdrawal visit if:  
• 
it was not present prior to receiving the first dose of study drug, or  
• 
it was present prior to receiving the first dose of study drug but the intensity 
increased during the active phase of the study.  
All TEAEs will be flagged in the AE listings. 
Prior and concomitant medication will be coded by using the World Health Organisation 
(WHO) Drug Dictionary (version December 2016 or above) and will be summarised 
separately by treatment group and overall with the number and percentage of subjects 
receiving prior and concomitant medication by drug class and preferred drug name. Prior 
medications/therapies are all those stopped prior to the first dose of study drug and 
concomitant medications/therapies are defined as all those ongoing or started at/after the first 
dose of study drug. 
For laboratory data, abnormal values will be flagged in the data listings and a list of clinically 
significant abnormal values will be presented. Shift tables will be presented of the number and 
percentage of subjects with low, normal or high values and normal or abnormal 
physical/pelvic examination findings between baseline and Week 24 time points.  
Vital signs data will be presented as shift tables, with the number and percentage of subjects 
with normal or abnormal findings between baseline and each assessment. 
ECG data will also be presented as shift tables, with the number and percentage of subjects 
with normal or abnormal findings between baseline and Week 12 and Week 24. 
Serum E2, FSH and LH concentrations at Week 40 will be listed only. 
Detailed methodology for the analysis of safety data will be presented in the SAP. 
10.5 
Subgroup Analyses 
Endometriosis-associated pelvic pain and change from baseline will also be assessed at each 
timepoint for the subgroup of subjects with VAS>3 cm at baseline.

DIRECT ACCESS TO SOURCE DATA AND DOCUMENTS 
Authorised personnel from external CAs and sponsor authorised Quality Assurance personnel 
may carry out inspections and audits. The purpose of an audit is to ensure that ethical, 
regulatory and quality requirements are fulfilled in all studies performed by the sponsor. 
Auditors and inspectors must have direct access to study documents and site facilities as 
specified in Section 12.4, and to any other locations used for the purpose of the study in 
question (for example laboratories). 
In the event of the site being notified directly of a regulatory inspection, the investigator must 
notify the sponsor’s representative as soon as possible, to assist with preparations for the 
inspection.

QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALITY ASSURANCE 
12.1 
Protocol Amendments and Protocol Deviations and Violations 
12.1.1 
Protocol Amendments 
No changes from the final approved (signed) protocol will be initiated without the prior 
written approval or favourable opinion of a written amendment by the IEC/IRB, except when 
necessary to eliminate immediate safety concerns to the subjects or when the change involves 
only logistics or administration. The principal investigator and the sponsor will sign the 
protocol amendment. 
12.1.2 
Protocol Deviations, Violations, and Exceptions 
A protocol deviation is nonadherence to protocol-specific study procedures or schedules that 
does not involve inclusion/exclusion criteria, primary objective evaluation criteria, and/or 
GCP guidelines. Deviations are considered minor and do not impact the study. 
A protocol violation is any significant divergence from the protocol, i.e. nonadherence on the 
part of the subject, the investigator, or the sponsor to protocol specific inclusion/exclusion 
criteria, primary objective evaluation criteria, and/or GCP guidelines. Protocol violations will 
be identified and recorded, by study centre personnel, on the eCRF.  
As a matter of policy, the sponsor will not grant exceptions to protocol-specific entry criteria 
to allow subjects to enter a study. If under extraordinary circumstances such action is 
considered ethically, medically, and scientifically justified for a particular subject, prior 
approval from the sponsor and the responsible IEC/IRB, in accordance with the Standard 
Operating Procedure (SOP), is required before the subject will be allowed to enter the study. 
If investigative centre personnel learn that a subject who did not meet protocol eligibility 
criteria was entered in a study (a protocol violation), they must immediately inform the 
sponsor. Such subjects will be discontinued from the study, except in an exceptional instance 
following review and written approval by the sponsor and the responsible IEC/IRB, according 
to the applicable SOP. 
12.2 
Information to Study Personnel 
The investigator is responsible for giving information about the study to all staff members 
involved in the study or in any element of subject management, both before starting any study 
procedures and during the course of the study (for example, when new staff become 
involved). The investigator must assure that all study staff members are qualified by 
education, experience, and training to perform their specific responsibilities. These study staff 
members must be listed on the study centre authorisation form, which includes a clear 
description of each staff member’s responsibilities. This list must be updated throughout the 
study, as necessary. 
The study monitor is responsible for explaining the protocol to all study staff, including the 
investigator, and for ensuring their compliance with the protocol. Additional information will 
be made available during the study when new staff become involved in the study and as 
otherwise agreed upon with either the investigator or the study monitor. 
12.3 
Study Monitoring 
The investigator is responsible for the validity of all data collected at the site. 
The sponsor is responsible for monitoring this data to verify that the rights and wellbeing of 
subjects are protected, that study data are accurate (complete and verifiable to source data) 
and that the study is conducted in compliance with the protocol, GCP and regulatory 
requirements.

Sponsor-assigned monitors will conduct regular site visits. The investigator will allow direct 
access to all relevant files (for all subjects) and clinical study supplies (dispensing and storage 
areas) for the purpose of verifying entries made in the eCRF, and assist with the monitor’s 
activities, if requested. Adequate time and space for monitoring visits should be made 
available by the investigator. 
The site must complete the eCRFs according to the sponsor monitoring manual, of the 
subject’s visit and on an ongoing basis to allow regular review by the study monitor, both 
remotely by the internet and during site visits. The central study monitor at the sponsor will 
use functions of the electronic data capture (EDC) system to address any queries raised while 
reviewing the data entered by the study site personnel in a timely manner. 
Whenever a subject name is revealed on a document required by the sponsor (for 
example, laboratory print outs) the name must be blacked out permanently by the site 
personnel, leaving the initials visible, and annotated with the subject number as identification. 
12.4 
Audit and Inspection 
Authorised personnel from external CAs and the sponsor’s authorised Quality Assurance 
personnel may carry out inspections and audits (see Section 11). 
12.5 
Data Quality Assurance 
Monitored eCRFs transferred from the investigational site to the assigned Data Management 
group will be reviewed (secondary monitoring) for completeness, consistency, legibility and 
protocol compliance. 
Reasons should be given on the relevant eCRF for any missing data and other protocol 
deviations. Any electronic queries and items not adequately explained will require additional 
electronic manual queries to be raised to the investigator by the monitor for 
clarification/correction. The investigator must ensure that queries are dealt with promptly. All 
data changes and clarifications can be viewed in the audit trail function of the eCRF.

ETHICS 
13.1 
Compliance with Good Clinical Practice and Ethical Considerations 
This study will be conducted in compliance with IECs/IRBs, informed consent regulations, 
the Declaration of Helsinki and ICH GCP Guidelines (Section 1.6). In addition, this study will 
adhere to all local regulatory requirements.  
Before initiating a study, the investigator/institution should have written and dated 
approval/favourable opinion from the IEC/IRB for the study protocol/amendment(s), written 
informed consent form, any consent form updates, subject emergency study contact cards, 
subject recruitment procedures (for example, advertisements), any written information to be 
provided to subjects and a statement from the IEC/IRB that they comply with GCP 
requirements. The IEC/IRB approval must identify the protocol version, as well as the 
documents reviewed. 
After IEC/IRB approval, changes will require a formal amendment. Once the study has 
started, amendments should be made only in exceptional circumstances. Changes that do not 
affect subject safety or data integrity are classified as administrative changes and generally do 
not require ethical approval. If ethically relevant aspects are concerned, the IEC/IRB must be 
informed and, if necessary, approval sought prior to implementation. Ethical approval on 
administrative changes will be obtained if required by local/site IEC/IRB. 
13.2 
Informed Consent 
Prior to study entry, the investigator, or a person designated by the investigator, will explain 
the nature, purpose, benefits and risks of participation in the study to each subject, subject’s 
legally acceptable representative or impartial witness. Written informed consent must be 
obtained prior to the subject entering the study (before initiation of any study-related 
procedure and administration of the IMP). Sufficient time will be allowed to discuss any 
questions raised by the subject. 
The sponsor will provide a sample informed consent form. The final version-controlled form 
must be agreed to by the sponsor, and the IEC/IRB and must contain all elements included in 
the sample form, in language readily understood by the subject. Each subject’s original 
consent form, personally signed and dated by the subject or by the subject’s legally acceptable 
representative, and by the person who conducted the informed consent discussion, will be 
retained by the investigator. The investigator will supply subjects with a copy of their signed 
informed consent. 
The consent form may need to be revised during the study should important new information 
become available that may be relevant to the safety of the subject or as a result of protocol 
amendments. In this instance approval should always be given by the IEC/IRB. It is the 
investigator’s responsibility to ensure that all subjects subsequently entered into the study and 
those currently in the study sign the amended form. This is documented in the same way as 
previously described. Subjects who have completed the study should be informed of any new 
information that may impact on their welfare/wellbeing. 
The investigator should, with the consent of the subject, inform the subject’s primary 
physician about their participation in the clinical study.

13.3 
Health Authorities and Independent Ethics Committees/Institutional Review 
Boards 
As required by local regulations, the sponsor’s Regulatory Affairs group will ensure all legal 
regulatory aspects are covered, and obtain approval of the appropriate regulatory bodies, prior 
to study initiation in regions where an approval is required. 
13.4 
Confidentiality Regarding Study Subjects 
The investigator must assure that the privacy of the subjects, including their personal identity 
and all personal medical information, will be maintained at all times. In eCRFs and other 
documents or image material submitted to the sponsor, subjects will be identified not by their 
names, but by an identification code (for example, initials and identification number). 
Personal medical information may be reviewed for the purpose of verifying data recorded on 
the eCRF. This review may be conducted by the study monitor, properly authorised persons 
on behalf of the sponsor, the quality assurance unit, or regulatory authorities. Personal 
medical information will always be treated as confidential.

DATA HANDLING AND RECORD KEEPING 
14.1 
Data Recording of Study Data 
In compliance with GCP, the medical records/medical notes, etc, should be clearly marked 
and permit easy identification of a subject’s participation in the specified clinical study. 
The investigator must record all data relating to protocol procedures, IMP administration, 
laboratory data, safety data and efficacy ratings on the eCRFs provided for the study. The 
investigator, by completing the signature log, may formally designate authority to complete 
eCRFs to appropriately qualified staff having certified user access to the eCRF. Subject 
completed diaries and questionnaires will be printed or electronic. 
The investigator must, as a minimum, provide an electronic signature (e-signature) to each 
eCRF to attest to the accuracy and completeness of all the data. If any changes are made to the 
eCRF, after a form has been locked and electronically signed, the investigator will be required 
to perform an additional e-signature authorising agreement with any new information or 
changes to the eCRF. 
All corrections on the eCRF will be automatically tracked and a reason for change is always 
required. In the eCRF, the audit trail function will allow the changes made to be viewed on 
each item entered. 
14.2 
Data Management 
EDC will be utilised for collecting subject data. Each site is required to have a computer and 
internet connection available for site entry of clinical data. All entries in the eCRF will be done 
under the electronic signature of the person performing the action. This electronic signature 
consists of an individual and confidential username and password combination. It is declared to 
be the legally binding equivalent of the handwritten signature. Only sponsor-authorised users 
will have access to the eCRF as appropriate to their study responsibilities. Users must have 
successfully undergone software application training prior to entering data into the eCRF. 
Data management will be conducted either by a CRO, directed by the sponsor’s data 
management department or by the sponsor’s data management department. All data management 
procedures will be completed in accordance with the sponsor and the contracted CRO SOPs. 
Prior to data being received in-house at the assigned CRO, it will be monitored at the investigator 
site, (for further details please see Section 12.3 Study Monitoring). The eCRF and other data 
documentation removed from the investigator site(s) will be tracked by the CRO and the 
monitor. 
The sponsor will ensure that an appropriate eCRF is developed to capture the data accurately, 
and suitable queries are raised to resolve any missing or inconsistent data. The investigator will 
receive their data, from the clinical study, in an electronic format (PDF files) which will be an 
exact copy of the eCRF, and will include the full audit trail, for archiving purposes and future 
reference. 
Any queries generated during the data management process will also be tracked by the 
contracted data management CRO/will be raised within the EDC system. It is the central study 
monitor’s responsibility to ensure that all queries are resolved by the relevant parties. 
The sponsor will also ensure that SAE data collected in the eCRF are consistent with 
information provided to the sponsor’s pharmacovigilance department (and vice versa).  
The coding of an AE, medical history and concomitant medication terms will be performed by 
the contracted CRO/a CRO, directed by the sponsor’s Biometry Group, and reviewed and

approved by the sponsor. Concomitant medications will be coded using the WHO drug 
dictionary and AEs/medical history terms will be coded using MedDRA (see Section 10.4.8). 
14.3 
Record Archiving and Retention 
During the prestudy and initiation visits, the monitor must ensure the archiving facilities are 
adequate and archiving/retention responsibilities of the investigator have been discussed.  
Study documents should be retained until at least 2 years after the last approval of a marketing 
application in an ICH region and until there are no pending or planned marketing applications 
in an ICH region (that is at least 15 years) or at least 2 years have elapsed since the formal 
discontinuation of clinical development of the product. However, these documents should be 
retained for a longer period if required by the applicable regulatory requirements or by an 
agreement with the sponsor. The investigator should take measures to prevent accidental or 
premature destruction of these documents. The final archiving arrangements will be confirmed 
by the monitor when closing out the site. The sponsor will inform the investigator, in writing, 
as to when these documents no longer need to be retained. 
If the principal investigator relocates or retires, or otherwise withdraws his/her responsibility 
for maintenance and retention of study documents, the sponsor must be notified (preferably in 
writing) so that adequate provision can be made for their future maintenance and retention.

REPORTING AND PUBLICATIONS OF RESULTS 
16.1 
Publication Policy 
The sponsor encourages acknowledgement of all individuals/organisations involved in the 
funding or conduct of the study, including medical writers or statisticians subject to the 
consent of each individual and entity concerned, including acknowledgement of the sponsor. 
The results of this study may be published or communicated to scientific meetings by the 
investigators involved in the study. For multicentre studies, a plan for scientific publication 
and presentation of the results may be agreed and implemented by the study investigators or a 
Steering Committee. The sponsor requires that reasonable opportunity be given to review the 
content and conclusions of any abstract, presentation, or paper before the material is 
submitted for publication or communicated. This condition also applies to any amendments 
that are subsequently requested by referees or journal editors. The sponsor will undertake to 
comment on the draft documents within the time period agreed in the contractual 
arrangements, including clinical trial agreements, governing the relationship between the 
sponsor and authors (or the author’s institution). Requested amendments will be incorporated 
by the author, provided they do not alter the scientific value of the material. 
If patentability would be adversely affected by publication, this will be delayed until (i) a 
patent application is filed for the content of the publication in accordance with applicable 
provisions of the clinical trial agreement concerned, (ii) the sponsor consents to the 
publication, or (iii) the time period as may be agreed in the contractual arrangements, 
including clinical trial agreements, governing the relationship between the sponsor and 
authors (or authors’ institution) after receipt of the proposed publication by the sponsor, 
whichever of (i), (ii) or (iii) occurs first. 
The author undertakes to reasonably consider the sponsor's request for delay to the proposed 
publication should the sponsor reasonably deem premature to publish the results obtained at 
the then stage of the study. 
16.2 
Clinical Study Report 
A final clinical study report (CSR) will be prepared according to the ICH guideline on structure 
and content of CSRs. A final CSR will be prepared where any subject has signed informed 
consent, regardless of whether the study is completed or prematurely terminated. Where 
appropriate an abbreviated report may be prepared. The CSR will be in compliance with any 
applicable regulatory requirements, national laws in force and will be in English and Chinese.
