LF111 or Drospirenone Chew vs Non-hormonal Contraceptive Methods on Bone Mineral Density in Adolescent and Adult Women

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of LF111 and drospirenone (DRSP) 3.5 mg chewable tablets on bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine after 12 months (13 medication cycles) of investigation in comparison to non-hormonal contraceptive methods. Secondary objectives include further evaluating the impact of LF111 and DRSP 3.5 mg chewable tablets on BMD and bone turnover after 12 months (13 medication cycles) in comparison to non-hormonal contraceptive methods and assessing the general safety and tolerability of LF111 and DRSP 3.5 mg chewable tablets in comparison to non-hormonal contraceptive methods. Exploratory objectives include evaluating the impact of LF111 and DRSP 3.5 mg chewable tablets on body fat and lean mass after 12 months (13 medication cycles) of investigation.
