Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Other

Arm Label

Prostatic artery embolization (PAE)

Arm Description

Study participants will be treated with a single PAE procedure performed with Embosphere microspheres.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Mean change from baseline in symptom score using the International Prostate Symptom Scale (IPSS)
Patients will be classified into one of 3 symptom severity categories based on their total IPSS score as follows: Mildly symptomatic: 0-7 Moderately symptomatic: 8-19 Severely symptomatic: 20-35

Secondary Outcome Measures

Mean change from baseline in maximal urinary flow measured
Mean change from baseline in post-void residual measured
Mean change from baseline in prostate volume measure
Mean change from baseline in international prostate symptom scale to measure long term subjective outcomes measured
Patients will be classified into one of 3 symptom severity categories based on their total IPSS score as follows: Mildly symptomatic: 0-7 Moderately symptomatic: 8-19 Severely symptomatic: 20-35
Mean change from baseline prostate specific antigen measure

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn if the prostatic artery embolization procedure can reduce urinary tract symptoms in patients with enlarged prostates and prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE 1. To evaluate the symptomatic improvement in lower urinary tract symptoms after prostatic artery embolization (PAE) SECONDARY OBJECTIVES To evaluate objective measures of improved urinary obstruction after PAE: urine flow rate, prostate volume, and post-void residual To measure effects of PAE on prostate specific antigen (PSA). To evaluate if PAE reduces the prostate volume and simplifies radiation therapy To evaluate the safety of PAE performed in this patient population
