RESEARCH QUESTION: Is oral administration of a gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist for 2 months before euploid embryo transfer in patients with endometriosis non-inferior to intramuscular administration of a long-acting GnRH a…

The development of highly potent gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) allowed for a significant addition to options for the medical management of symptomatic endometriosis. Pituitary GnRH receptor down-regulation leads to a hypog…

BACKGROUND: Elagolix is an oral, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist, that significantly reduces dysmenorrhea and non-menstrual pelvic pain (NMPP) in women with moderate to severe endometriosis-associated pain. METHODS…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis symptoms are nonspecific and overlap with other gynecologic and gastrointestinal diseases, leading to long diagnostic delays. The burden of endometriosis has been documented; however, little is known about the im…

PURPOSE: Elagolix is an oral gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist approved in the United States for the management of moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis. We performed a real-world evaluation of the demographic and cl…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis-related fatigue is common and negatively impacts multiple areas of many women's lives, particularly in day-to-day activities, social activities, physical activities, mood and emotions, relationships with family or …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common problem in women of reproductive age and has impacts on health-related quality of life and productivity. Fatigue is an important part of the burden of endometriosis, it is not often included as an endpo…

Background: The daily pain burden experienced by women with endometriosis has not been well studied. Objective: To characterize baseline pain among women with moderate-to-severe endometriosis-associated pain enrolled in phase 3 studies of e…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a painful chronic inflammatory disease caused by endometrial tissue implanting and growing outside the uterus, resulting in pelvic pain symptoms and subfertility. Treatment imposes a substantial economic burden …

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis-associated symptoms are associated with reduction in health-related quality of life (HRQL). This analysis evaluated the impact of Elagolix, an oral gonadotrophin releasing-hormone antagonist, on the HRQL of women…

ObjectiveTo estimate the impact of elagolix on work loss due to endometriosis-associated pain.DesignPost hoc analysis of data from the Elaris I and II clinical trials.SettingNot applicable.Patient(s)Employed women ages 18–49 years with mode…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis profoundly impairs women's workplace and household productivity. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of elagolix on endometriosis-related workplace and household productivity losses. METHODS…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of elagolix, an oral GnRH antagonist, for the reduction of fatigue in women with moderate or severe endometriosis-associated pain. DESIGN: Randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled phase …

Challenges intrinsic to the accurate diagnosis of endometriosis contribute to an extended delay between the onset of symptoms and clinical confirmation. Intraoperative visualization, preferably with histologic verification, is considered by…

INTRODUCTION: Few data exist on the extent of symptoms in women with endometriosis. This analysis examined baseline pain burden among women with moderate to severe endometriosis pain in two phase 3 studies of elagolix (an oral, non-peptide …
