Looking for Responders among Women with Chronic Pelvic Pain Treated with a Comicronized Formulation of Micronized Palmitoylethanolamide and Polydatin.
Palmitoylethanolamide is reported to solve pain and neuroinflammation in different models of chronic and neurodegenerative diseases. Some concerns have been illustrated for cautiously interpreting the available literature on the topic. Specifically, there is a lack of evidence about palmitoylethanolamide and female chronic pelvic pain. Concerns will be best solved by randomized trials. The present study was aimed at finding the best responders to micronized palmitoylethanolamide in female patient with chronic pelvic pain, using the existing literature at individual patient level, to help further randomized trial planning.. After a systematic research, eligible studies (the ones enrolled female patients treated for chronic pelvic pain or for dyspareunia, dysuria, dyschezia, and dysmenorrhea with or without chronic pelvic pain) were assessed at individual patient data level. Conditional probabilities were calculated to assess variables conditioning the rates of good responders (pain score points more or equal to 3 reduction), poor responders (2 pain score reduction), and nonresponders at a three-month follow-up.. Only cases treated with palmitoylethanolamide comicronized with polydatin for a short period can be assessed. Good responders are more than 50%. In chronic pelvic pain, there is a 19.0% conditional probability to find good responders among patients with pain score at enrolment of 6 to 8 and of 6.8% to find poor responders among patients with a pain score at enrolment of 6 to 8. Painful disease does not matter on responders' rates.. Best responders to comicronized palmitoylethanolamide/polydatin are patients with pain score higher than 6 at enrolment, irrespective of other variables.

Effectiveness of the Association N-Palmitoylethanolamine and Transpolydatin in the Treatment of Primary Dysmenorrhea.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the combination of N-palmitoylethanolamine (PEA) and transpolydatin vs placebo in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea in adolescents and young women.. Randomized treatment and follow-up of 220 cases of primary dysmenorrhea in the Department of Medicine and Health Sciences, Institute of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University of Molise, Italy.. Between February 2013 and February 2014, we treated 220 young women aged 16 to 24 years who had primary dysmenorrhea: 110 patients were treated with the oral combination of PEA-transpolydatin: 400 mg + 40 mg (1 tablet a day for 10 days from the 24th day of cycle) and 110 patients with placebo (1 tablet a day for 10 days from the 24th day of cycle). A follow-up was performed after treatment, and all girls were seen at this time. A 10-point visual analog scale was used to measure the improvement of pelvic pain. For categorical variables, the χ(2) test and analysis of variance were performed to value the significance of differences between groups. A value of P < .05 was considered statistically significant.. An improvement of pelvic pain was seen in 98.18% (95% confidence interval 97.64% to 98.60%) of cases in group 1 vs 56.36% (95% confidence interval 48.62% to 63.81%) in group 2 (P < .001). The combination of PEA and transpolydatin was more effective than placebo (P < .001).. The combination of PEA and transpolydatin shows promise as a valid adjuvant therapy in the medical treatment of primary dysmenorrhea in adolescents and young women.

[Administration of micronized palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)-transpolydatin in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain in women affected by endometriosis: preliminary results].
Aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of micronized palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)-transpolydatin in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain in women affected by endometriosis.. Twenty-four patients with suspected endometriosis affected by severe pelvic pain were enrolled. All patients received two tablets a day of PEA 400 mg and 40 mg polydatin for 90 days consecutively. A Visual Analogic Scale was used for the assessment of the severity of global pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, dysuria and dischezia. A second questionnaire was submitted to patients to assess the quality of life. The compilation of a diary lead us to evaluate the monthly assumption of any painkillers. Patients were evaluated at the begin of the treatment and then monthly until the end of the study (90 days). The statistical analysis was performed by using the ANOVA for the analysis of variance.. Statistically significant results were found in relation to pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia compared to the initial evaluation of patients. Results related to dysuria and dischezia were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The decrease in pelvic pain leads to an improvement of the quality of life of patients. A decreased assumption of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was also observed.. PEA could be considered an effective supplement to conventional analgesic therapies in the management of pelvic pain related to endometriosis.

Effectiveness of the association micronized N-Palmitoylethanolamine (PEA)-transpolydatin in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain related to endometriosis after laparoscopic assessment: a pilot study.
Aim of our study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the association between N-Palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin in the management of chronic pelvic pain related to EMS.. This was a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 61 subjects, submitted to a first line laparoscopic conservative surgery, who were randomized into 3 groups receiving: group A (n=21) the association N-Palmitoylethanolamine-transpolydatin 400 mg + 40 mg twice a day for 3 months; group B (n=20) the placebo for 3 months; group C (n=20) a single course of Celecoxib 200mg twice a day for 7 consecutive days. Assessments of the severity of pelvic endometriosis (pelvic pain, dysmenorrhoea and dyspareunia) were recorded before and after treatment on a questionnaire and a 10-point VAS. Differences between groups were verified with Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA for non-parametric multiple comparisons.. A marked decrease in dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and pelvic pain was observed in all groups, and the association between N-Palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin resulted to be more effective than placebo (P<.001). Additionally, the treatment with Celecoxib resulted in a decrease in pelvic pain more effective either than the association N-Palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin or placebo.. These preliminary results show that the association between micronized N-Palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin is effective in the management of pelvic pain related to endometriosis after laparoscopy. Additionally, this association seems to be safe, shows an optimal control of pain and can be used in patients who are unable to receive other therapies.

Micronized Palmitoylethanolamide-Polydatin Reduces the Painful Symptomatology in Patients with Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome.
To assess the efficacy of a micronized-palmitoylethanolamide-polydatin (m-PEA-Pol) based product on chronic pelvic pain and severity of other symptoms in interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) patients refractory to conventional therapies.. A pilot, open-label bicentric study was carried out involving 32 IC/BPS patients. Chronic, oral m-PEA-Pol treatment lasted 6 months. Bladder pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale, while changes from baseline in other urinary symptoms were evaluated by means of the O'Leary-Sant Interstitial Cystitis Symptom and Problem Index and the Pelvic Pain and Urgency/Frequency (PUF) symptom scale questionnaires. The generalized linear mixed model was used to evaluate significant mean changes across time.. A significant and progressive reduction of pain intensity was observed during m-PEA-Pol treatment (. These data highlight the potential benefit of m-PEA-Pol in patients with rare pathology such as IC/BPS and confirm the good safety profile of micronized PEA-based products.

The adjuvant use of N-palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin in the treatment of endometriotic pain.
To test the adjuvant use of the combination of N-palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin in the medical treatment of endometriotic pain.. We enrolled 47 patients admitted to the Outpatient Endometriosis Care Unit of Ferrara University from January 2011 to December 2011. They were divided into two groups according to the endometriosis site (group A: recto-vaginal septum; group B: ovary). One tablet, containing 400 mg of micronized N-palmitoylethanolamine plus 40 mg transpolydatin, was administered twice daily on a full stomach for 90 days. Each patient was requested to grade the severity of dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia and dyschezia using a 0-10 cm visual analogic scale prior to beginning treatment (T0), after 30 days (T1), 60 days (T2) and 90 days (T3). The continuous and categorical variables were compared, respectively, using Student's t-test and the chi-square test. Analysis of variance for repeated measures was used to verify the reduction of endometriotic pain.. The intensity of endometriotic pain decreased significantly for both groups (p<0.0001). The efficacy of drug treatment was significant after 30 days. Pain intensity decreased equally in the two groups except for dysmenorrhea, which was reduced more rapidly in group B.. The combination of N-palmitoylethanolamine and transpolydatin reduced pain related to endometriosis irrespective of lesion site. It had a marked effect on chronic pelvic pain determined by deep endometriosis and on dysmenorrhea correlated to ovarian endometriosis.

Effect of palmitoylethanolamide-polydatin combination on chronic pelvic pain associated with endometriosis: preliminary observations.
Endometriosis is a chronic oestrogen-dependent gynaecological disorder, the most common symptom of which is pain. Inflammation can be considered one of the major causes of pain in endometriosis. In particular, degranulating mast cells have been found in significantly greater quantities in endometriotic lesions than in unaffected tissues. The increase in activated and degranulating mast cells is closely associated with nerve structures in painful endometriotic lesions. These observations indicate that inflammation due to mast cells may contribute to the development of pain and hyperalgesia in endometriosis. Controlling mast-cell activation may therefore relieve the pain associated with endometriotic lesions.. Four patients presenting an endometriosis-related pain intensity >or=5 (visual analogue scale for pain, or VAS) were enrolled and monitored during 3 months of the following treatment: oral palmitoylethanolamide 400mg and polydatin 40mg, twice daily for 90 days. Deep dyspareunia, dyschezia, dysuria, dysmenorrhoea and analgesic drug use during the 3-month follow-up period were also monitored, with the aim of demonstrating a reliable reduction in chronic pelvic pain.. The preliminary results indicate that all patients enrolled experienced pain relief as early as 1 month after starting treatment. Furthermore, a reduction in the analgesic drugs usually employed for pain control was observed in all subjects treated. Additionally, some improvements in endometriotic lesions seemed to be demonstrated by imaging.. The palmitoylethanolamide-polydatin combination seems to be very useful in controlling chronic pelvic pain associated with endometriosis. As a result of these findings we have initiated a multi-centre pilot study to verify the effectiveness of this treatment in controlling the chronic pelvic pain associated with endometriosis.
