Compared with EE/DRSP, combinations E4/DRSP and E4/LNG were associated with a lower effect on sex hormone-binding globulin (SBHG) (-69% to - 44% in E4/LNG, +8% to +44% in E4/DRSP and +306% in EE/DRSP, respectively). Because E4/DRSP exerted considerably lower hepatic and vascular estrogenicity than EE/DRSP, the authors suggested that women who take E4-containing COCs may ultimately prove to have a lower risk of venous thromboembolism compared to women who take EE-containing COCs. Subjects with an intact uterus were randomized to receive 2 mg E4 or E2 V for 28 days with subsequent dose-escalation groups (non-randomized) to 10 mg E4 (intact uterus and >= 35 hot flushes per week) and 20 and 40 mg E4 (hysterectomized subjects).
