ObjectiveTo test potential contraceptive mechanisms of the selective P receptor modulator CDB-2914 in the early luteal phase.DesignProspective randomized clinical trial.SettingClinical research center.Patient(s)Fifty-six women with regular cycles.Intervention(s)Women received a single dose of CDB-2914 (10, 50, or 100 mg) or placebo given after ovulation and within 2 days of the LH surge. Four to 6 days later, a transvaginal ultrasound scan measured endometrial thickness, and an endometrial biopsy specimen was obtained.Main Outcome Measure(s)The endometrium was evaluated by thickness and by immunohistochemical analysis for P-dependent markers; safety laboratory tests were performed, and E2 and P levels were obtained.Result(s)CDB-2914 caused a significant dose-dependent decrease in endometrial thickness, an increase in glandular P receptors, and a decrease in peripheral node addressins. Estradiol and P levels and menstrual cycle timing were not altered. No adverse effects were observed.Conclusion(s)The alteration in endometrial thickness and P-dependent markers of implantation in the absence of changes in hormone levels and cycle length suggests that CDB-2914 may have contraceptive properties.
