About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Parallel Design Phase 2 Dose Ranging Trial To Assess The Safety and Efficacy of DA-8159 Tablets in Male Subjects With Erectile Dysfunction.

The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of DA-8159, an orally administered, potent and selective inhibitor of PDE5, versus placebo for the treatment of subjects with erectile dysfunction (ED).

Read the detailed description

This will be a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in 300 erectile dysfunction patients. Patients will complete a screening visit (V1) to determine eligibility for the study based on the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) erectile function (EF) domain scores, patient history and safety measures. Patients that meet the entrance criteria for this study will enter a 4 week, drug-free run-in period to establish a baseline for the erectile function domain score and to meet the criteria for participation in the study.

Patients successfully completing screen will be randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups at Visit 2 (V2): placebo or one of 3 active drug doses of DA-8159 tablets. Patients will be given medication for at-home use and will also be given diaries for recording information regarding sexual encounters, quality of erections and adverse events. At 4-week intervals for 3 months (V3, V4, V5), patients will return to the clinic to review and collect SEP diaries, safety data, 12-lead ECG and medication reconciliation. In addition, at each 4-week interval patients will complete an IIEF, and at Visit 5 will have blood drawn for safety evaluation.

The primary efficacy end points are: a) the change in score (baseline to Visit 5) for the Erectile Function domain score of the IIEF, b) change in response, relative to baseline, for sexual encounter profile (SEP) question 2, and c) change in response, relative to baseline, for SEP question 3. For DA-8159 tablets to be judged efficacious, the DA-8159 tablet groups must be shown superior to the placebo group on all three measures.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary efficacy end points are:

  2. the change in score (baseline to Visit 5) for the Erectile Function domain score of the IIEF;

  3. change in response, relative to baseline, for sexual encounter profile (SEP) question 2, and

  4. change in response, relative to baseline, for SEP question 3.

  5. Safety will be assessed by monitoring adverse events and changes in vital signs, clinical laboratory test results, 12-lead ECG, and physical examinations.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The study has several secondary efficacy measurements including:

  2. changes in the satisfaction of intercourse, orgasmic function, sexual desire and overall satisfaction domains of the IIEF,

  3. changes from baseline in SEP questions 1, 4 and 5;

  4. the global assessment questionnaire (GAQ), and

  5. changes from baseline in patient self assessment questionnaire (PSAE) scores.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Feb 2007.
