About this study
Official title: A Prospective Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Botox™ for the Treatment of Men Diagnosed With Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intraprostatic injection of Botox for the treatment of men diagnosed with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS).
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective open label study examining the efficacy and safety of intraprostatic Botox . Men with a clinical diagnosis of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis/CPPS will be treated with intraprostatic Botox™ and followed for 12 weeks (primary efficacy analyses), and 24 weeks (long term follow-up) for responders.
It is proposed that a total of 40 males will be enrolled. There will be seven (7) research clinic visits and two phone contacts: Visit 1 (screening), Visit 2 (baseline/treatment), Visit 3 (2-week safety evaluation - clinic contact), Visit 4 (4-week safety evaluation - phone contact), Visit 5 (6-week interim efficacy/safety), Visit 6 (12-week primary endpoint evaluation), Visit 7 (14-week clinic follow up), Visit 8 (16 week phone contact) and Visit 9 (24-week clinic close out).
Outcome measures include Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (CPSI 0-35), NRS pain (0-10), Global Response Assessment (GRA) at 12 weeks. Safety to be monitored during the study.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Botox in people with Prostatitis and Chronic Pain Syndrome, run by Queen's University at 1 site in Canada.
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 8 inclusion and 20 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2019. 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 Canada. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Mar 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
GRA (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 25 Mar 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
