| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To compare the effects on the APC - (Activated Protein C) resistance ratio (ETP -[endogenous thrombin potential] based) between the pivotal Phase III NOMAC-E2 (nomegestrol acetate - 17ß-estradiol) batch and a commercial NOMAC-E2 batch.;Secondary Objective: •To compare the effects on all other metabolic parameters between the pivotal Phase III NOMAC-E2 batch and a commercial NOMAC-E2 batch. •To compare the effects on metabolic parameters between both NOMAC-E2 batches and a monophasic COC (combined oral contraceptive) containing 150 µg LNG (levonorgestrel) and 30 µg EE (ethinylestradiol); •To evaluate general safety. ;Primary end point(s): The comparison of the effects on the APC-resistance ratio (ETP-based) (APCrr) between the pivotal Phase III NOMAC-E2 batch and the commercial NOMAC-E2 batch at the Cycle 3 visit for the AST group will be considered the primary outcome of the trial. | — |
