Study Description

Brief Summary: A double arm (non-inferiority) 44 patient study to assess the performance of BeadBlock™ in the treatment of uterine fibroids by embolization with respect to clinical \& imaging outcome with comparison of primary safety endpoints to Embosphere.

Detailed Description: The purpose of the study is to conduct a comparison between BeadBlock™ and Embosphere in uterine fibroid embolization. Baseline and follow-up MR Imaging data will be made with respect to changes in fibroid and uterus perfusion and fibroid and uterine volume. This is a 12 months study (12 month follow up for all enrollees). The primary end-point will be the degree of fibroid devascularization as seen at contrast-enhanced MRI performed 3 months (+/- 15 days) after UAE procedure. In addition we will assess symptom reduction in patients that have undergone uterine fibroid embolization with Bead Block™ and Embosphere®. Primary Objective 1. To assess the change in fibroid devascularization as seen at contrast-enhanced MRI performed after UAE and at three (3) months (+/- 15 days) following the UAE, and compare the changes between BeadBlock™ and Embosphere. Secondary Objective 1. To assess the change in fibroid devascularization as seen at contrast-enhanced MRI performed several days after UAE and 6 months (+/- 15 days) following the UAE, and compare the changes between BeadBlock™ and Embosphere. Tertiary Objective 1. To assess the change in uterine volume as seen at contrast-enhanced MRI performed several days after UAE, 3 months (+/- 15 days) and 6 months (+/- 15 days) following the UAE, and compare the changes between BeadBlock™ and Embosphere. 2. To assess the change from baseline in symptom severity (UFS-QOL)at 3, 6 and 12 months (+/- 15 days) follow-up, as measured by the subscale of the UFS questionnaire, and compare the changes between BeadBlock™ and Embosphere.
