Outcome results
Contraception Efficacy of AG200-15 in Subjects ≤ 35 Years of Age Regardless of BMI, Intent-to-treat (ITT) Dataset.
The Pearl Index will serve as the primary contraceptive efficacy endpoint for evaluation of pregnancy rates for the study. Pearl Index is the number of on-therapy pregnancies times 1300 divided by the number of 28-day on-therapy cycles and is an estimate of the number of pregnancies per 100 woman-years of product use.
Time frame: 1 year
Population: ITT population: all complete or incomplete on-therapy cycles in which intercourse occurred and no back-up contraception was used.
