New patch could forgive birth control blunders
NCT ID NCT07365904
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase 2 study tests a contraceptive patch (MR-130A-01) in 60 healthy women aged 18-35. Researchers want to see if the patch still prevents ovulation even when applied incorrectly or left on too long. Participants will use the patch for 84 days, and ovulation is checked via ultrasound and hormone levels. The goal is to understand how forgiving the patch is of real-world mistakes.
