Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with a current history of significant cardiovascular, pulmonary,gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, metabolic, hematological, immunological, orneurological disease that, in the opinion of the investigator or medical monitor,could compromise either the patient's safety or the results of the study

  • Participant has abnormal findings identified during the Screening Periodassessments, including neurological and physical examinations, hematology andbiochemistry parameters, pulse rate and/or blood pressure and electrocardiogram (ECG), as compared with the appropriate reference ranges; if judged not clinicallysignificant, the PI should document this fact appropriately

Study Description

This is a multi-center study to evaluate the effect of NOE-115, a monoamine modulator, in patients with moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes) due to menopause.

Women will participate in the study for a total of approximately 12 weeks, comprising a screening period (4 weeks), treatment period (4 weeks), and a follow up period (4 weeks).

The study is single arm but enrollment will occur in two cohorts. In Cohort, enrolled women will receive NOE-115 at a daily Dose A for the entire 4-week treatment period. Cohort 1 participants will return to the clinic on specified days per protocol for tolerability assessments.

Cohort 2 will enroll participants after the acceptable safety/tolerability of NOE-115 Dose A has been determined from Cohort 1.

Administration of NOE-115 will start on Study Day 1 and will continue daily for 4 weeks and will start at Dose A of NOE-115 as defined by the study protocol. Participants will receive NOE-115 up to a maximum- daily dose based on Investigator decision. Cohort 2 participants will return to the clinic on specified days per protocol for tolerability assessments and possible dose increases of NOE-115.
