Active clinical trials for "Prostatitis"

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a severe pain condition affecting 3-8 million people in the United States lacking treatments that work. Emotional suffering is common in IC/BPS and known to make physical symptoms worse, and studies show patient sub-groups respond differently to treatment. By creating and testing a psychosocial intervention specific to IC/BPS, we will learn if this intervention improves patient wellness, who the intervention works best for, and how the body's pain processing influences outcomes.

It has been observed that out of all visits to the clinics by the young and middle age men for grievances including the genital and urinary frameworks, about 25% of the visits account for Prostatitis. A significant number of men, aged less than 50, visits to urologist due to Interminable prostatitis. Nevertheless, just 5 to10% of "prostatitis" cases is really caused by a bacterial contamination. The purpose was to investigate thoroughly the effect of pumpkin seeds oil phonophoresis among males who are diagnosed with chronic non-bacterial prostatitis.

Although the cause of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is unknown, physicians sometimes try to treat it with antibiotics or alpha-receptor blockers. In this multicenter, double-blind factorial trial, 196 men with moderately severe CP/CPPS were randomly assigned to 6 weeks of treatment with ciprofloxacin, tamsulosin, both drugs, or placebo. Neither ciprofloxacin nor tamsulosin substantively reduced symptoms. Ciprofloxacin and tamsulosin were not effective treatments for CP/CPPS. Patients had long-standing, refractory CP/CPPS and received trial treatments for only 6 weeks. Patients with new diagnoses who are given longer courses of the trial treatments might respond differently.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of levofloxacin to ciprofloxacin in patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ELMIRON® in the treatment of chronic non-bacterial inflammation of the prostate gland.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) refers to the presence of bothersome pelvic pain symptoms without an identifiable cause. Common symptoms of CP/CPPS include discomfort in the perineum, suprapubic region, and lower urinary tract symptoms. It affects men of all ages without apparent racial predisposition, among which, 36-50 years old are the most commonly influenced. Yet, few effective therapies are available for treating CP/CPPS. Acupuncture may be an effective treatment option for CP/CPPS. However, effects of acupuncture on CP/CPPS remain uncertain because of the small sample sizes or other methodological limitations. The objective of this multi-centre, randomized, sham acupuncture-controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of acupuncture for relieving symptoms of CP/CPPS. The results will provide a robust conclusion with a high level of evidence.

The primary purposes of the study are to evaluate the effectiveness of Ingaron in the complex therapy of chronic prostatitis, to assess the safety of using Ingaron in patients with chronic prostatitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine if a randomized trial of physical therapy for pelvic pain is feasible.

Primary objective: To investigate the microbiological efficacy, assessed as eradication rate based on microbiologically evaluable patients 1 month post treatment with oral Levofloxacin 500 mg in male adults with chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP, category II) Secondary objectives: To investigate the microbiological efficacy, assessed as eradication rate based on microbiologically evaluable patients 6 months post treatment with oral Levofloxacin 500 mg in male adults with chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP, category II). To assess the clinical response rate based on resolution of signs and symptoms after 2 weeks of treatment; 5-12 days, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months post treatment with oral Levofloxacin 500 mg in male adults with chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP, category II). To assess the safety of Levofloxacin 500 mg on the basis of adverse events, standard clinical chemistry, hematology, urinalysis and vital signs in male adults with chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP, category II).

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the alpha adrenergic blocker Alfuzosin (Uroxatral) in men with relatively new onset of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). Alfuzosin is a once daily (10 mg capsule), FDA approved medication for an indication in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The effectiveness of alfuzosin in improving lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with BPH has been documented in a number of placebo-controlled studies. A number of small studies have also suggested that alfuzosin ameliorates CP/CPPS symptoms through a similar alpha-blockade mechanism. This study will enable further testing of this hypothesis
