Active clinical trials for "Nocturia"

The purpose of this trial was to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of different oral doses of FE 201836, with desmopressin as a benchmark, during 12 weeks of treatment for nocturia due to nocturnal polyuria in adults

Nocturia, waking at night from sleep to void, is a prevalent and troublesome symptom. Treatment with an alpha-adrenergic antagonist medication (α-blockers) is a standard therapy for LUTS in men, but α-blockers offer only limited reductions in nocturia. While combinations of multiple drugs could be used, many individuals wish to take fewer medications. Participants in the BEDTiMe Nocturia Study will undergo a series of visits during which they will receive a combination of either standard drug therapy (or placebo) and a behavioral intervention tailored to help with nocturia or problems with nocturia. Participants will be evaluated for outcomes at 12 weeks and followed for six months. This study will yield important information related to alternative treatments of nocturia in men, as well as novel information regarding the clinical importance of these nocturia reductions. This study has the potential to alter standards of care.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of several doses of the melt formulation of desmopressin in a broad population of adult patients with nocturia.

The aim of this study was to observe the effect of hormonal treatment (oral or transdermal substitution therapy) on diuresis (salt and water diuresis) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in postmenopausal women

Nocturia is the leading cause of sleep disruption with its subsequent negative impact on general health and QoL for a large proportion of the adult population. Nocturia is prevalent in men and women of all ages but may be particularly bothersome in younger adults, in whom the consequences of sleep disturbance may be more detrimental for daytime functioning and possibly for health and mortality.The underlying causes of nocturia obviously influence the efficacy of different treatment options. Because a major cause of nocturia is overproduction of urine at night, nocturia may not respond to treatments designed to reduce urgency and increase bladder capacity or increase urine flow, such as agents for the management of bladder outlet obstruction.

Tibial nerve stimulation (TNS) has been shown to be an effective alternative for the management of the overactive bladder (OAB). Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) uses a series of regular electrical pulses to stimulate the tibial nerve. Numerous studies have positively shown the efficacy of this treatment. These studies have included multicentric, double-blind, randomized sham-controlled study of patients with idiopathic OAB. , . In 2013 the British National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance has added TTNS as a second-line option for the management of female urinary incontinence , . In reality, the vast majority of patients treated using tibial nerve receive treatment percutaneously (PTNS) by inserting a needle into their lower leg. PTNS requires 12 visits to a physician's office and a painful treatment experience. From a physician's perspective PTNS is resource intensive in terms of time, financial and staff commitments. As a result, PTNS is often not a feasible option from the point of view of health care delivery. Moreover, the treatment may not be an option for patients whose schedule or ability to travel is limited. These issues are exacerbated for those with disabilities requiring special transport arrangements and who have trouble committing to 12 expensive and long trips to receive treatment. Additionally, 8% of patients who undergo PTNS complain of adverse effects which include pain, bruising, tingling or bleeding at the insertion site of the 34-gauge needle. As a direct result of these limitations long-term follow up studies of patients undergoing PTNS treatment show poor compliance to PTNS over time . Non-invasive, homecare TTNS devices such as the ZIDA Wearable Neuromodulation System are on the cusp of achieving regulatory clearance. TTNS, stimulates transcutaneously at a home-based setting and at least one study has explored the efficacy of this treatment method . Early results have demonstrated improvements in OAB symptom scores and urodynamic parameters . So far, these studies have employed standard commercial TENS devices (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation). These studies have used a variety of treatment frequencies to stimulate the tibial nerve at frequencies between 10 to 40 Hz, patient have been advised which pre-determined stimulation settings can be used for home care treatment. Commercial TENS devices limit mobility of patients during the time that the nerve is being stimulated.

To investigate the efficacy and safety of SER120 nasal spray formulations in patients with nocturia

This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of fedovapagon in the treatment of nocturia in men with BPH.

The purpose of this study is to determine if SER120 nasal spray is well tolerated in 75 years or older nocturic patients.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms of tremor, slowness of movement, and stiffness, leading to progressive disability and loss of independence. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), including urinary incontinence (UI), urgency, and/or nocturia, are common non-motor symptoms that further diminish the already compromised quality of life for adults living with PD. Behavioral interventions for UI - including pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) therapy - have proven efficacy in randomized controlled trials and are free of side effects. Exercise-based behavioral therapy for UI requires individuals to learn a motor skill (PFME) and implement an adaptive behavioral strategy that incorporates the PFME to suppress urinary urgency and prevent UI. We will conduct a two-site, randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of PFME-based behavioral therapy to treat urinary symptoms in adults with PD. After stratification by UI severity, PD severity, and gender, a group of 60 subjects (30 in each group) will be randomized to receive behavioral therapy or a behavioral control over 8 weeks in order to achieve a sample size of 50 individuals (25 in each group) who complete the study. A 6-month follow-up is planned in the treatment group. We hypothesize that: PD participants who are randomized to the exercise-based behavioral therapy group (Group A) will report a significant reduction in weekly frequency of UI episodes compared to PD participants in the behavioral control group (Group B). The primary outcome, frequency of UI, will be measured using a seven-day bladder diary. Compared to PD participants in Group B, the reduction in UI frequency in Group A will be clinically meaningful as measured by a corresponding improvement on questionnaires of satisfaction and quality of life as well as a decline in other urinary symptoms including urgency and nocturia.
