Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
To measure the improvement of the quality of life.
Patients complete EQ-5D-5L questionnaire at Day 1 (baseline visit), at 2 weeks (Visit 1), at 4 weeks (Visit 2), at 8 weeks (Visit 3) and at 12 weeks (Visit 4). This questionnaire measures mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression and health status. These five dimensions have 5 response levels: No problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. This questionnaire also has a Visual Analogue Scale from 0 (worse health status) to 100 (best health status).
To measure the improvement of the quality of life.
Patients complete the Endometriosis Health Profile 30 Questionnaire at Day 1 (baseline visit), at 2 weeks (Visit 1), at 4 weeks (Visit 2), at 8 weeks (Visit 3) and at 12 weeks (Visit 4). This questionnaire evaluates six domains: pain, control and powerlessness, emotional well-being, social support and self-image. These scales are converted into a 0-100 score, 0 is best health status and 100 is worse quality of life.
To measure the improvement of the quality of life.
Patients complete PGI-I (Patient Global Impression of Improvement) scale at Day 1 (baseline visit), at 2 weeks (Visit 1), at 4 weeks (Visit 2), at 8 weeks (Visit 3) and at 12 weeks (Visit 4). PGI-I is a Likert scale from 1 (significantly better) to 7 (significantly worse).
To measure the improvement in pain intensity.
To describe the type and intensity of pain using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at at Day 1 (baseline visit), at 2 weeks (Visit 1), at 4 weeks (Visit 2), at 8 weeks (Visit 3) and at 12 weeks (Visit 4). It is measured the change of these results from baseline visit to the final visit. Also patients complete a symptoms diary between visits. For each symptom, the patient will record intensity (on a scale from 1 to 10).
Secondary outcomes
Compare the reduction in the need for prescription and dosage of anti-inflammatory and analgesic pharmacological treatment.
Patients will complete the use of inflammatory and analgesic pharmacological treatment (name, dose and time) in a diary between visits.
To measure the incidence of clinically relevant episodes
To assess and destribe the type, intensity and relationship with investigational product of clinically relevant episodes at Day 1 (baseline visit), at 2 weeks (Visit 1), at 4 weeks (Visit 2), at 8 weeks (Visit 3) and at 12 weeks (Visit 4).
