A Safety and Efficacy Study of the Combination Estradiol and Progesterone to Treat Vasomotor Symptoms

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter trial of postmenopausal subjects with an intact uterus.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Postmenopausal subjects with an intact uterus who meet the study entry criteria will be randomized to one of five treatment arms (four active and one placebo) and followed for 12 months. During the Screening period all subjects will be provided with a diary to self-assess the frequency and severity of their vasomotor symptoms. Subjects experiencing a minimum daily frequency of ≥7 (or ≥50 per week) moderate to severe hot flushes will participate in a VMS Substudy during the first 12 weeks of treatment. The Substudy subjects will be stratified by treatment arm within the sites, and only Substudy subjects have the possibility of being randomized to placebo. Subjects who qualify for the study except for experiencing a minimum daily frequency of ≥7 (or ≥50 per week) moderate to severe hot flushes will be stratified within sites to one of the four active treatment arms and followed for 12 months, but will not participate in the VMS Substudy. (However, VMS information will be collected from all subjects during the first 12 weeks of treatment.) All Study Subjects: Postmenopausal women with an intact uterus who seek relief from hot flushes and meet all other inclusion/exclusion criteria are eligible for 12 months of study treatment. VMS Substudy Subjects: A subset of All Study Subjects who have ≥7 per day or ≥50 per week moderate to severe hot flushes (as determined during Screening) are eligible for the 12-week VMS Substudy and for a total of 12 months of study treatment. Clinical evaluations will be performed at the following time points: Screening Period (Week: - 8.5) (up to -60 Days) Visit 1 Randomization (Week 0) (Day 1) Visit 2 Interim (Week 4) Visit 3 Interim (Week 8) Visit 4 Interim (Week 12) Visit 5 Interim (Month 6) Visit 6 Interim (Month 9) Visit 7 End of Treatment (Month 12)

Eligibility Criteria
-----------------
Inclusion Criteria: Be a female between the ages of 40 and 65 years (at the time of randomization) who is willing to participate in the study, as documented by signing the informed consent form. Be a postmenopausal woman with an intact uterus and a Screening serum estradiol level of ≤50 pg/mL. Postmenopausal is defined herein as: ≥ 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea, or at least 6 months of spontaneous amenorrhea with a Screening serum FSH level of >40 mIU/ml, or ≥ 6 weeks postsurgical bilateral oophorectomy. Be seeking treatment or relief for vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause. To participate in the VMS Substudy, a subject must also report ≥7 moderate to severe hot flushes per day, or ≥50 per week, at the baseline assessment during Screening (subjects whose hot flushes are less frequent may still participate as non-Substudy subjects. Note: A minimum of 14 consecutive days of complete hot flush diary data are required during the baseline assessment at Screening, and these consecutive days must occur within the last 14 days prior to the Randomization visit (not counting the Randomization visit day itself). The most recent 7 consecutive days of data prior to randomization (Day -7 to Day -1) will be used to determine the baseline number of mild, moderate and severe hot flushes for each subject. Have a Body Mass Index (BMI) less than or equal to 34 kg/mP2P. (BMI values should be rounded to the nearest integer [e.g., 34.4 rounds down to 34, while 26.5 rounds up to 27]). Be willing to abstain from using products (other than study medication) that contain estrogen, progestin, or progesterone throughout study participation. Be judged by the principal or sub-investigator physician as being in otherwise generally good health based on a medical evaluation performed during the Screening period prior to the initial dose of study medication. The medical evaluation findings must include: a normal or non-clinically significant physical examination, including vital signs (sitting blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and temperature). Sitting systolic blood pressure is ≤140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≤90 mmHg at Screening. A subject may be taking up to two antihypertensive medications. a normal or non-clinically significant pelvic examination. a mammogram that shows no sign of significant disease (can be performed within previous 6 months prior to initial dose of study medication). Subjects must have a BI-RADS 1 or 2 to enroll in the study. An incomplete mammogram result, i.e. BI-RADS 0, is not acceptable. The site must obtain a copy of the official report for the subject's study file, and it must be verified that the mammogram itself is available if needed for additional assessment. a normal or non-clinically significant clinical breast examination. An acceptable breast examination is defined as no masses or other findings identified that are suspicious of malignancy. a normal Screening Papanicolaou (Pap) smear. (Subjects with findings of atypical glandular cells [AGC], AGUS, ASCUS with high risk HPV type upon reflex testing, LSIL, ASC-H, HSIL, dysplastic cells, or malignant cells must be excluded from randomization.) an acceptable result from an evaluable Screening endometrial biopsy. The endometrial biopsy reports by the two central pathologists at Screening must each specify one of the following: proliferative endometrium; weakly proliferative endometrium; disordered proliferative pattern; secretory endometrium; endometrial tissue other (including benign, inactive or atrophic fragments of endometrial epithelium, glands, stroma, etc); endometrial tissue insufficient for diagnosis; no endometrium identified; or no tissue identified. However, at least one pathologist must identify sufficient tissue to evaluate the biopsy. Additionally, the endometrial biopsy reports by the two central pathologists of Other Findings at Screening must each specify one of the following: endometrial polyp not present; benign endometrial polyp; or polyp other.

The baseline was the most recent 7 consecutive days of data prior to randomization. The weekly frequency of moderate to severe hot flushes was calculated from the daily diary record using a forward counting process of 7 day intervals beginning with the baseline date. Weekly frequency equals total number of moderate to severe hot flushes for the subject week. | Baseline and Week 4 | 
| Co-Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Frequency of Moderate to Severe Vasomotor Symptoms (MITT-VMS) | Mean change in frequency of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms from Baseline to Week 12. The baseline was the most recent 7 consecutive days of data prior to randomization. The weekly frequency of moderate to severe hot flushes was calculated from the daily diary record using a forward counting process of 7 day intervals beginning with the baseline date.

| Primary Safety Endpoint: Endometrial Protection - Hyperplasia | Endometrial biopsies centrally evaluated by 2 primary pathologists using criteria from Blaustein's Pathology text. Pathologists classified bx into 1 of following 3 categories: Cat.1: Non-endometrial malignancy/non-hyperplasia; Cat.2: Endometrial hyperplasia; Cat.3: Endometrial malignancy. Consensus reached when 2 primary pathologist agreed on any of above categories; if primary pathologists disagreed on presence of hyperplasia, result of 3rd pathologist was utilized and final decision regarding presence of hyperplasia was based on diagnosis of majority. If all 3 reads disparate, final diagnosis based on most severe dx. Incidence rate calculated as: I=A/B where I=incidence rate at M12 evaluation, A=all new subjects with biopsies positive for endometrial hyperplasia during study but post-Baseline, B=all subjects w/biopsies following M11 meeting criteria specified plus all subjects w/biopsies positive for endometrial hyperplasia by any pathologists before M11. | Baseline and Month 12 |

Scoring method: Answers to Q, 5, 7, 8, 9 are reversed & rescaled to realign to be same direction and range (0 to 100 with 0=best possible & 100=worst possible as follows: MOS_n_new = (6-MOS_n_old) x 20. Answers to Q4, & 12 are rescaled to 0-100 as follows: MOS_4_new =(MOS_4_old - 1) x 20; MOS_12_new=(MOS_12_old - 1) x 20. Score is the average of item scores; score range range=0 to 100, where higher score means worse outcome. | Baseline and Month 12 |

| Medical Outcomes Sleep Study (MOS) Optimal Sleep - Week 12 - (MITT) | Change from Baseline (BL) to Wk 12 in MOS Optimal Sleep Score as compared with Placebo.The MOS-Sleep Self Report Questionnaire is composed of 12 items measuring 6 dimensions of sleep over the past 4 wks. Optimal sleep is based on Q2 (self-reported average hrs sleep per night in past 4 wks). Scoring method: hrs of sleep coded 0 (non-optimal) or 1 (optimal) where 1-6 hrs & 9-23 hrs = 0, 7-8 hrs = 1. Change from BL: subject sleeps 7-8 hrs at BL & 1-6 or 9-23 hrs at follow-up, change = -1; subject sleeps 1-6 or 9-23 hrs at BL & 7-8 hrs at follow-up, change = +1; subject sleeps 1-6 or 9-23 hrs at BL & 1-6 or 9-23 hrs at follow-up, change = 0. Mean change from BL: changes are summed to give the Net Total (equivalent to the number subjects w/ improved sleep hrs minus the number subjects w/ worsened sleep hrs), which is divided by the number of subjects to give the mean proportion of net change, where >0 = overall improvement and <0 = overall worsening in the study arm. | Baseline and Week 12 |
