What is being measured

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

  1. Mean change from baseline to the end of treatment in the MSHQ ejaculation total score

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks in MSHQ ejaculation total score

  2. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks and the end of treatment in MSHQ erection total score and in the satisfaction total score

  3. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks and the end of treatment in MSHQ ejaculation questions, in the erection and satisfaction sub-scores

  4. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks and the end of treatment in the I-PSS (International Prostate Symptom Score) total score and in the Quality of Life

  5. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks and the end of treatment in I-PSS sub-scores for voiding, filling and nocturia symptoms

  6. Mean change from baseline to 4 weeks and the end of treatment in the peak urinary flow rate (Qmax)

  7. Correlation between MSHQ and IPSS

  8. Evaluation of adverse events, vital signs (blood pressure and heart rate in sitting position), PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) and creatinine.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ALFUZOSIN in people with Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Handok Inc. at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean change from baseline to the end of treatment in the MSHQ ejaculation total score. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 29 Nov 2007.
