Trial summary

Despite the great number of reports about the efficacy of oestrogens or antimuscarinics on OAB symptoms, so far no author has tried to investigate whether the concomitant administration of these two drugs, acting on two different pathophysiological mechanisms, could have a synergic effect reducing the rate of… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Is There A Synergic Effect Of Topical Oestrogens When Associated To Antimuscarinics In The Treatment Of Symptomatic Detrusor Overactivity

Despite the great number of reports about the efficacy of oestrogens or antimuscarinics on OAB symptoms, so far no author has tried to investigate whether the concomitant administration of these two drugs, acting on two different pathophysiological mechanisms, could have a synergic effect reducing the rate of non-responders to treatment.

Being tested
Tolterodine 4 mg, arm 2: Tolterodine 4 mg + local oestrogens once daily for 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Tolterodine 4 mg and arm 2: Tolterodine 4 mg + local oestrogens once daily for 12 weeks in people with Overactive Bladder, run by Università degli Studi dell'Insubria at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 inclusion and 9 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 1 Apr 2008. 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 Italy. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00648310, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Apr 2008.
