Trial summary

OAB occurs in approximately 50% to 75% of men with BPO and up to 38% of men with BPO continue to suffer from OAB after relief the obstruction.Symptoms of OAB are more bothersome than the voiding complaints of slow stream and hesitancy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Combination Treatment With Doxazosin Plus TolterodineSR 2 mg vs Doxazosin Plus TolterodineSR 4 mg in Men With an OAB/BPO: Randomized Controlled Study"

OAB occurs in approximately 50% to 75% of men with BPO and up to 38% of men with BPO continue to suffer from OAB after relief the obstruction.Symptoms of OAB are more bothersome than the voiding complaints of slow stream and hesitancy. However, the patients with both BPO and OAB are often not treated with muscarinic receptor antagonists due to concern that they will experience acute urinary retention.

Tolterodine is a potent and pure muscarinic receptor antagonist that was developed specifically for the treatment of overactive bladder. Recently, studies revealed that tolterodine was effective, safe and well tolerated in adults with OAB and urodynamically confirmed BPO.However, the optimal dosage of antimuscarinic for the treatment of OAB coexisting BPO was not yet fully assessed. In real clinical situation, some patients complain voiding difficulty after addition of antimuscarinics and want to stop antimuscarinics.It is probable that a lower dosage of antimuscarinics combined with alpha-adrenergic antagonists can be used safely in OAB patients with BOO, with the same efficacy.

This study is designed to investigate the optimal doses of tolterodine SR in combination with doxazosin in men with both BOO and OAB based on efficacy, safety, and tolerability.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing doxazosin plus tolterodine SR in people with Overactive Bladder and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Samsung Medical Center 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 2 Dec 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 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?

Numeric change of urgency episodes per 24 hours (time frame: 12 weeks of treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00922506, 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 2 Dec 2019.
