Primary Outcome Measures:

Percent Change in Frequency of Hot Flashes Over Time [ Time Frame: Week 4 minus baseline week ]
Percent change of moderate and severe hot flash frequency at 4 weeks compared to baseline using weekly Subject diary data, in the intent-to-treat population.
Percent Change in Composite Score Over Time [ Time Frame: Week 4 minus baseline week ]
Percent change in composite score (frequency x severity) of hot flashes (Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3) at 4 weeks compared to baseline, in the intent-to-treat population.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Determine the Effects of RAD1901 on Follicular Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Over Time. [ Time Frame: Day 29 minus baseline ]
Percent change in FSH at Day 29 compared to baseline, in the intent-to-treat population.
Determine the Effects of RAD1901 on Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Over Time. [ Time Frame: Day 29 minus baseline ]
Percent change in LH levels at Day 29 compared to baseline, in the intent-to-treat population.
