Epidemiological and Serological Analysis of a SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak in a Nursing Home: Impact of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Enhanced Neutralizing Immunity Following Breakthrough Infection.

Background: Despite a vaccination rate of 82.0% (n = 123/150), a SARS-CoV-2 (Alpha) outbreak with 64.7% (n = 97/150) confirmed infections occurred in a nursing home in Bavaria, Germany.

The effects of vilaprisan on the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of a combined oral contraceptive-A randomized controlled trial.

Aims: The primary objective was to explore whether the suppression of ovarian activity induced by a combined oral contraceptive (COC) is influenced by the simultaneous intake of the selective progesterone receptor modulator (SPRM) vilaprisan (VPR).

Methods: In this exploratory randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study, 71 healthy premenopausal women were randomized (1:1) to receive either 2 mg/d VPR or placebo for 3 months. Concomitantly, a COC (0.

Effect of the Novel Selective Progesterone Receptor Modulator Vilaprisan on Ovarian Activity in Healthy Women.

This randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study in healthy young women investigated the effect of treatment with vilaprisan (0.5, 1, 2, or 4 mg/day for 12 weeks) on ovarian function by assessing the Hoogland score, which is based on the size of follicle-like structures as determined by transvaginal ultrasound and on estradiol and progesterone serum concentrations. Ovulation inhibition (ie, Hoogland score <6 in treatment weeks 1-4 and 8-12) was observed in >80% of the subjects receiving vilaprisan ≥1 mg/day.

Pharmacodynamics and safety of the novel selective progesterone receptor modulator vilaprisan: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial in healthy women.

Study Question: Does administration of vilaprisan (VPR) to healthy women for 12 weeks reduce menstrual bleeding?

Summary Answer: In this 12-week proof-of-concept phase 1 trial, most women (30/33, 90%) who received VPR at daily doses of 1-5 mg reported the absence of menstrual bleeding.

What Is Known Already: Vilaprisan (BAY 1002670) is a novel, highly potent selective progesterone receptor modulator that markedly reduces the growth of human leiomyoma tissue in a preclinical model of uterine fibroids (UFs).

Study Design, Size, Duration: In this double-blind, parallel-group study, of the 163 healthy women enrolled 73 were randomized to daily VPR 0.

Pharmacokinetic interaction between the CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole and the hormone drospirenone in combination with ethinylestradiol or estradiol.

Aims: The present study was conducted to investigate the influence of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (KTZ) on the pharmacokinetics of drospirenone (DRSP) administered in combination with ethinylestradiol (EE) or estradiol (E2).

Methods: This was a randomized, multicentre, open label, one way crossover, fixed sequence study with two parallel treatment arms. A group sequential design allowed terminating the study for futility after first study cohort.

Coadministration of estradiol/drospirenone and indomethacin does not cause hyperkalemia in healthy postmenopausal women: a randomized open-label crossover study.

The effect of drospirenone on plasma potassium when coadministered with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as indomethacin, is unknown. An open-label crossover study investigated the effects of estradiol/drospirenone and indomethacin coadministration on plasma potassium levels in 32 postmenopausal women. Each participant received 2 treatments in random order: indomethacin alone for 5 days and estradiol/drospirenone alone for 12 days, then estradiol/drospirenone plus indomethacin for 5 days.
