Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Pearl Index up to 3 Years
Up to 3 years

The unadjusted Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 woman years. The 3-year PI was obtained by dividing the number of pregnancies that occurred during the first three years of treatment by the time (in 100 women years) that the women were at risk of getting pregnant.

Pearl Index for LCS16 up to 5 Years
Up to 5 years

The unadjusted Pearl Index (PI) is defined as the number of pregnancies per 100 woman years.
