ORMELOXIFENE- A New Treatment Modality in DUB
  • Dr.Surendra Nath Panda, M.S.
  • Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
  • M.K.C.G.Medical College.
  • Berhampur, Orissa, INDIA

2
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding
  • MOST COMMON MENSTRUAL DISORDER
  • CAN AFFECT ANY WOMEN FROM MENARCHEE TO MENOPAUSE
  • OFTEN THE FIRST CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS FOR ANY
    EXCESSIVE MENSTRUAL BLEEDING
  • DIAGNISIS HAS TO BE CONFIRMED BY A PROCESS OF
    EXCLUSION OF PATHOLOGICAL CAUSES

3
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding
  • EXACT PATHOPHYSIOLOGY STILL NOT KNOWN
  • BASIS OF EXCESSIVE BLEEDING IS
  • MOSTLY AN ENDOCRINE ABNORMALITY -OESTROGEN -
    PROGESTERONE IMBALANCE (mostly estrogen
    dominance)
  • ALTERED PROSTAGLANDIN SYNTHESIS INFAVOUR OF E2

Medical Treatment for DUB
  • SECOND LINE mostly Adjuvant
  • NSAIDs
  • Mefenamic acid
  • Ethamsylate
  • Antifibrinolytics
  • EACA
  • Tranexamic acid
  • Radiotherapy ?
  • HORMONES
  • EsPr
  • Progestogens
  • Estrogen
  • Androgens Estrogen
  • Danazol
  • GnRha

13
Medical Treatment for DUB
Problems -
  • Treatment has to be indivisualised
  • Not suitable for all ages
  • Response is erratic and unpredictable
  • SIDE EFFECTS - Discontinuation and noncompliance
  • Failures are common
  • Cost effectiveness ?
  • Surgery is often resorted to

14
Surgical Treatment of DUB
ENDOMETRIAL ABLATION -
  • HYSTEROSCOPIC METHODS -
  • TCRE Tran Cervical Resection Of Endometrium
  • ELA Endrometrial Laser Ablation
  • HTEA Hydrothermal Endrometrial Ablation

15
Surgical Treatment of DUB
ENDOMETRIAL ABLATION -
  • NON HYSTREOSCOPIC METHODS -
  • RFEA Radio Frequency Endometrial Ablation
  • TBEA Thermal Balloon Endometrial Ablation
  • VSEA Vestablate System Endometrial Ablation
  • MWEA Microwave Endometrial Ablation
  • ERA Endometrial Resection and Ablation With a
    Specialised Tissue Aspiration Resectoscope (STAR)
  • TUMA Total Uterine Mucosa Ablation by a
    Calibrated Uterine Resection Tool (CURT)

16
Surgical Treatment of DUB
HYSTERCTOMY -
  • VAGINAL HYSTERECTOMY
  • LPAROSCOPICALLY ASSISTED V H
  • Lap Hys.- Total / Subtotal
  • Abdominal / MINILAP Hysterectomy- Total /
    Subtotal

17
Surgical Treatment of DUB
Problems -
  • HYSTERECTOMY
  • Invasive procedure
  • Not suitable at all ages
  • Not without risks
  • Costly
  • First option in 40
  • DUB is the most common indication
  • Curettage
  • Mostly diagnostic
  • Never gives a cure
  • Endometrial resection / ablation
  • Array of methods
  • Recurrence is common
  • Amenorrhoea gives cure

18
Need of the Hour for the Treatment of DUB
  • The ideal therapy should be a designer drug which
    can block the action of Estrogen on the
    Endometrium but not its beneficial actions on
    other tissues

The ideal SERM is one that has no uterine
stimulation, prevents bone loss, has no risk of
breast cancer, a ve effect on lipids

ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
Chemical Name- Trans -7-methyl-2-2-dimethyl-3-phe
nyl-4(4-(2-pyroldinoethoxy)phenyl(-chroman
hydrochloride)
The individual elements of the molecular
structure give a tissue selectivity- different
DNA transcriptions in different tissues
Oestrogen agonist
Oestrogen antagonist
24
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
An optimally designed SERM with Varied Tissue
Response
It blocks the cytosol receptors by its
competitive binding affinity over Estradiol.
It not only causes a slow build up of the
receptors, but also causes their prolonged
retention.
Its action lasts long after the drug is withdrawn.
25
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
An optimally designed SERM with Varied Tissue
Response
Estrogen Antagonist in UTERUS BREAST.
Mild Estrogenic action on Vagina, Bone mineral
density, CNS and Serum Lipids.
No action on Hypothalamic Pituitary Ovarian
function, Thyroid or Adrenal. No Progestational,
Androgenic or Antiandrogenic properties
26
ORMELOXIFENE

Response
INDICATED for the treatment of Dysfunctional
Uterine Bleeding at ANY AGE.
Offers additional advantage of relief of PMS in
peirmenopausal women.
Not suitable for women desiring pregnancy because
of its contraceptive property.
27
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
An optimally designed SERM with Varied Tissue
Response
Women desiring contraception should use a
barrier contraceptive for first two months
Has been approved for inclusion in the National
Family Welfare Program of Govt. of India, for
Social marketing of Health Family Welfare.
28

30
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
Has an excellent safety profile,very well
tolerated practically without any undesirable
side effects

Two 60mg tablets twice a week ( for example,
Sunday Wednesday) for 12 weeks followed by one
tablet of 60mg twice a week for another 12 weeks
31
ORMELOXIFENE

Response
Future possibility of use for-
  • Fibromyoma,
  • Adenomyosis
  • Endometriosis
  • Breast cancer (prevention treatment)
  • Osteoporosis (prevention treatment)
  • Menopause management.

32
Summary
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
  • Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding is a very common
    disorder at all ages from menarche to menopause.
  • Though its pathophysioology is still unclear,
    Estrogen-Progesterone imbalance is usually the
    basis of bleeding.
  • Available medical treatment modalities are far
    from satisfactory.
  • Ormeloxifene, the latest Selective Estrogen
    Receptor Modulator, is closest to the perfect
    SERM, having the desired antirestrogenic and
    estrogenic action in different tissues.

33
Summary
ORMELOXIFENE
The perfect SERM for DUB
  • It has a very good safety profile and well
    tolerated, being practically devoid of side
    effects.
  • Recently approved for clinical use in INDIA, it
    is an effective and safe drug for the treatment
    of DUB at all ages, because of its
    antiestrogenic action on the Endometrium.
  • It is easy to administer and cost effective.
  • However extensive large scale clinical trials are
    needed to establish its effectiveness and safety
