Botulinum Toxin A vs Anticholinergic Treatment of Neurogenic Overactive Bladder in Patients With...
Urinary BladderNeurogenic1 moreBotulinum toxin type A injections into the detrusor at a dose of 200 units (U) of BOTOX® are a recognized second-line treatment for the treatment of adult neurogenic lower urinary tract disorders. Anticholinergics are established as the usual first-line treatment for neurogenic detrusor hyperactivity, but are oft not sufficiently effective and have significant side effects. In patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) suffering from overactive bladder, the 200 U dose of BOTOX® is very effective but induces a risk of urinary retention in 30% of patients requiring the temporary use of self-catheterization1. At 100 U, a recent study shows the efficacy and very good tolerance of botulinum toxin A in terms of probing risk in MS patients with overactive bladder and failure of anticholinergics. Furthermore, the efficacy of anticholinergics in MS has been little studied and is also disputed. The investigators plan to test the therapeutic alternative as the first line of treatment in two groups of randomized MS patients from a homogeneous population suffering from overactive bladder: a group testing the effectiveness of low doses of botulinum toxin type A (100 U, BOTOX®), the other group receiving the standard anticholinergic treatment (solifenacin succinate, Vesicare®). During this pilot study, the efficacy and side effects profile of each treatment will be analyzed in order to determine the amplitudes of effect and the safety profiles in this population and in order to establish the statistical hypotheses for a subsequent randomized multicenter study. The aim of this study will be to establish the benefit of botulinum toxin at a dose of 100 U as a first-line treatment instead of anticholinergics

Overactive BladderThe purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for treating overactive bladder in adults.
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Women With Overactive Bladder With Urgency Incontinence...
Overactive BladderUrge IncontinenceOveractive bladder (OAB) affects an estimated 16-30% of women in the US and urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) affects 7-11% of women with OAB. It is known that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the supplementary motor area (SMA) can modulate the pelvic floor muscle activity with potential benefits for various urologic conditions. The goal of this study is to assess feasibility of rTMS as a treatment option for OAB with UUI by determining which rTMS frequency is most effective in targeting sensory components of OAB, namely urinary urgency, and also in targeting the brain network known to be involved in OAB.
TEST-ON - Does iStim Reduce Urinary Urgency?
Overactive BladderUrgency-frequency Syndrome1 moreOveractive bladder (OAB) is a chronic disorder with an overall prevalence in the adult population of over 10%, but that may exceed 40% in elderly groups. Most overactive bladder treatments are aimed at decreasing urgency incontinence episodes. The purpose of this study is to determine whether an at-home transvaginal electrical stimulation (TES) program works to alleviate symptoms of urgency in patients with urinary urgency and frequency without incontinence. This is a cross-over trial. Women >18 yo presenting with OAB-dry will be randomized to receive one of two TES at home programs for 4 weeks. After completion of the program, the participant's symptoms will be assessed with standardized patient questionnaires. There will then be a 3 week washout period followed by the second at-home TES program. At the completion of the second program, the participant's symptoms will be assessed with the same standardized questionnaires. The participants will be followed for 6 months following the completion of the TES program.
Efficacy and Safety of High Dose Vitamin D Supplementation for Overactive Bladder Dry in Children...
Overactive BladderThis prospective, randomized, 3-arms, parallel-design, controlled clinical trial is conducted to determine whether high dose vitamin D supplementation (combined with standard urotherapy ) improves outcomes, compared with solifenacin (combined with standard urotherapy ) ,and standard urotherapy alone in children with OAB dry.
Comparative Effectiveness of Initial OAB Treatment Options Among Older Women at High Risk of Falls...
Urinary BladderOveractive2 moreThe goal of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot multi-arm clinical trial comparing a standard course of physical therapist provided pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) to pharmacologic therapy for the treatment of urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) or Overactive Bladder (OAB) in older women at high risk of falling. The central hypotheses for this project are i) a randomized pilot multi-arm clinical trial comparing PFMT to drug treatment for UUI or OAB in older women at high risk of falling is feasible; and ii) treatment approach can influence both UI and fall related outcomes in this patient population. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1) Is a multi-arm clinical trial comparing PFMT to drug treatment for UUI or OAB in older women at high risk of falling feasible? and 2) How does treatment approach influence both OAB and fall related outcomes in this patient population? Women (16 per arm) 60 years and older with UUI or OAB who screen positive for high fall risk will be randomized to one of three standard of care treatment arms and followed for six months. The three treatment arms are i) a 12-week structured behaviorally based pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) intervention administered by physical therapists in the clinic; ii) a 12-week course of the beta-3 agonist, Mirabegron; and iii) a 12-week course of the antimuscarinic, Trospium Chloride. Researchers will compare study feasibility and OAB symptom related outcomes across the three groups to see if a larger clinical trial is warranted.
