About this study

Official title: Phase III Study of YM178 - A Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Group Comparison Study in Patients With Overactive Bladder

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of YM178 in patients with overactive bladder for 12-week administration.

Read the detailed description

This study examines the superiority of YM178 over the placebo and evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetics of YM178 in patients with overactive bladder, and to compare the efficacy and safety of YM178 over those of tolterodine, the control drug, without a non-inferiority test.

The drug administration period is 14 weeks in total, consisting of 2 weeks for placebo (pre-investigation period) and 12 weeks for the investigational drug (treatment period).

A Phase 3 study testing YM178 and tolterodine in people with Urinary Bladder, Overactive, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 4 sites in Japan.

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 4 inclusion and 17 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 31 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Japan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in the mean number of micturitions per 24 hours (time frame: Within a 12-week treatment period). 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 NCT00966004, 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 31 Oct 2024.
