Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Hyperplasia"

Single-arm, interventional pivotal clinical trial collecting patient data from use of the AQUABEAM System, a personalized image-guided waterjet resection system that utilizes a high-velocity saline stream to resect and remove prostate tissue in males suffering from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) with prostate volumes between 80 mL and 150 mL. The primary endpoints for safety and effectiveness will be measured at 3 months post-treatment. Treated subjects will be followed out to 60 months to collect long-term clinical data.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug known as tadalafil in participants with benign prostatic hyperplasia who are being treated with an alpha1 blocker. This study has two treatment periods. Participants will receive tadalafil or placebo in each treatment period.

This is an open-label extension study of another study protocol, MCS-2-TWN-a. Subjects who have completed the 12-week treatment and procedures under the protocol MCS-2-TWN-a will be eligible for this study.

The primary objective is to assess the safety of GI198745 0.05mg, 0.5mg, 2.5mg once daily for 52 weeks.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common problem among aging Caucasian men that produces significant morbidity and hea1th care costs. It is likely that BPH is just as common among Chinese men. Debate exists as to whether currently available surgical and pharmacological options for BPH are appropriate for men in the watchful-waiting stage of this condition. Evidence suggests that the consumption of soy isoflavones is related to lower rates of BPH among Asian men. The advantages of soy isoflavones over conventional therapies may include better patient compliance, improved safety and lower cost. Despite the fact that soy isoflavones are safe and contain a health-conferring ingredient with a defined mechanism of action, no randomised control trial has been performed using isoflavones to treat BPH. Therefore, a randomised control trial is proposed to test the tolerability and effectiveness of soy isoflavones (Soylife) verses placebo in 182 men with defined watchful waiting BPH over a period of 12 months. In this trial, patients who fulfill the inclusion criteria, will either be given 40mg of soy isoflavones capsule (once daily) or a placebo capsule. They will be reviewed every three months with maximal urine flow rate, international prostate symptoms score and quality of life measured. Baseline tests include RFT, LFT, FBC, MSU, PSA and testosterone and to be repeated at 6th month and 12th month. The investigators hypothesize that this intervention will reduce lower urinary tract symptoms and slow the progression of the disease.

This is an investigator-initiated study of safety, efficacy and tolerability of dutasteride given for 18 months, including a 1-year double-blind randomized co-administration with either tolterodine ER or placebo in men suffering from lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) including urgency and frequency, with or without urgency urinary incontinence (i.e., overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms).

A dose-finding, multi-centre, double-blind, randomised, parallel, placebo-controlled trial to investigate efficacy and safety of degarelix in men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

The aim of this study is to compare medical efficacy and cost effectiveness of two surgical options for obstructive BPH management : transurethral resection of the prostate with photo selective vaporization of the prostate using the high powered 532nm laser.

The primary objectives were to determine the efficacy and safety of the GITS formulation of Doxazosin in Taiwanese patients with prostate enlargement.

This study will be an open-label, randomized, single dose, three way partial crossover study in healthy male subjects. The aim of the study is to evaluate bioequivalence of a fixed dose combination (FDC) capsule of dutasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride (HCl) (0.5 milligram [mg]/0.4 mg) relative to co-administration of dutasteride 0.5 mg capsules and tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.4 mg tablets in both the fed and fasted states. Approximately 98 healthy adult male subjects will be enrolled into the study. Subjects will receive single oral doses in 3 treatment periods and be randomized to one of twelve different treatment sequences (ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, CBA, ABD, ADB, BAD, BDA, DAB, DBA) wherein A= commercially available tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.4 mg and dutasteride 0.5 mg in a fed state, B= fixed dose combination formulation of dutasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride (0.5 mg dutasteride, 0.4 mg tamsulosin hydrochloride) in a fed state, C= commercially available tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.4 mg and dutasteride 0.5 mg in a fasted state, D= fixed dose combination formulation of dutasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride (0.5 mg dutasteride, 0.4 mg tamsulosin hydrochloride) in a fasted state. Each treatment period will be separated by a minimum 28 day washout period. The total duration of a subject's involvement in this study is approximately 15-18 weeks.
