초록

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Unicenta in female subjects with menopausal symptoms by analyzing the changes in the Kupperman index (primary endpoint) and hormonal changes (secondary endpoint). It was a randomized, multi-center, double-blind, parallel, non-inferiority clinical study conducted at two different tertiary medical centers. A Unicenta injection was shown to be non-inferior to Melsmon based on the Kupperman index in both the intent-to-treat and per-protocol populations (p = 0.789 and p = 0.826, respectively). Additionally, there were no statistically significant differences in hormone levels (estradiol, follicular-stimulating hormone) or in the evaluation of facial flushes. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse events between the two groups (p = 0.505). The study demonstrated that Unicenta is not inferior to Melsmon in terms of the change in the Kupperman index after 12 days of injection. The efficacy and safety of Unicenta were shown, resulting in the improvement of menopausal symptoms.
