Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Hyperplasia"

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of saw palmetto and sanmiaoshan, on top of alpha blocker, on urinary flow rate and BPH symptoms in patients with BPH.

To determine whether pomegranate tablets have a therapeutic effect on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.

The study objective is to assess the safety and efficacy of iTind three to five years following treatment.

A multicentre randomised controlled trial evaluating the benefit of median lobe preservation on the incidence of retrograde ejaculation during prostate enucleation by HoLEP.

Prostate adenoma or benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) is a benign disease of the prostate gland. It results in an increase in the volume of the prostate area located in contact with the urethra. Compression of the prostatic urethra by the adenoma can cause lower urinary tract disorders. The classic treatments in case of failure of medical treatment are endoscopic resection of the prostate and adenomectomy, but these techniques are characterized by a significant hemorrhagic risk that may require transfusions and prolonged hospitalization. Minimally invasive treatments with low morbidity have been developed to overcome these drawbacks. They allow to propose a therapeutic solution adapted to patients: not tolerating their medical treatment, wishing to keep antegrade ejaculation, elderly and/or frail, at risk of bleeding, wishing an ambulatory treatment, refusing the conventional surgical techniques. The Focal One® device was developed to treat prostate cancer using ultrasound energy. This energy is delivered through a probe placed in your rectum. Connected to this probe, an ultrasound machine will allow your doctor to see precisely which part of your prostate is being treated. By heating the prostate tissue to a very high temperature in one treatment session, the energy delivered will then destroy the tissue. Ultrasound guidance coupled with the localized nature of the treatment allows the targeted area to be treated while respecting the prostate tissue and structures adjacent to the prostate and thus reducing side effects. Treatment of prostate adenoma with HIFU would allow for localized destruction to reduce prostate volume. The reduction of the compression of the prostatic urethra thus obtained would allow an improvement of the urinary disorders. The treatment is performed transrectally under real-time ultrasound control, which allows the adjacent structures to be respected, thus preserving antegrade ejaculation and limiting the side effects.

Over 100,000 BPH procedures are performed annually in the US. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of performing MRI guided transrectal laser ablation using a 980 nm laser (VisualaseTM by Medtronic, Inc., a Minnesota, U.S.A. company) to treat benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). The laser system will be used to necrotize urological soft tissue within the prostate under MRI guidance. This will be a single center, single arm prospective trial with an anticipated enrollment of 10 men. Patients who elect this treatment option and choose to be part of the study will be enrolled consecutively.

The aim of our study is to estimate the efficacy, safety and postoperative complications of the thulium fiber laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuFLEP) with Urolase system (NTO IRE-POLUS, Russia).

The primary objective of the post-marketing study is to collect safety and effectiveness data for 5 years on subjects treated with Prolieve®. The collection of 5-year safety information will be used to evaluate the occurrence of any long-term side effects from the treatment. The collection of long-term effectiveness data on subjects treated with Prolieve® will provide information on the long-term effects of treatment and time to re- treatment (any treatment initiated for BPH since Prolieve'" treatment, including a second treatment with Prolieve").

Study to evaluate Prostate Artery Embolization for the treatment of lower urinary track symptoms due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Size Greater Than 90 Grams.

This is a pilot study examining biological endpoints in men with localized prostate cancer who are scheduled to have radical prostatectomies and men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia/Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (BPH/LUTS) following botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injection. Patients will serve as their own controls by receiving BoNT-A injections into the right peripheral and transition zones and sham saline injections into the left peripheral and transition zones.
