  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Have had lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH-LUTS) (as diagnosed by a qualified physician) >6 months at screening visit. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) include those associated with voiding (obstructive symptoms, such as incomplete emptying, intermittency, weak stream, straining) and/or storage (irritative symptoms, such as frequency, urgency, nocturia).
  • Have BPH-LUTS with moderate-to-severe symptoms confirmed by an International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) >12. (The IPSS total score is defined as the sum of Questions 1 through 7 and does not include the IPSS Quality of Life.)
  • Taking into account the age and disease status, subjects determined to be in good health according to medical history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), and laboratory safety assessments.
  • Body mass index between 18 and 30 kg/m^2 inclusive.
  • Agree not to use any other approved or experimental pharmacologic BPH, erectile dysfunction (ED), and/or overactive bladder (OAB) treatments, including alpha blockers, phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, or herbal preparations at least 1 week prior to dosing and through to follow-up.
  • Subjects with a serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) <10.0 ng/mL. Subjects with a serum PSA greater than or equal to 4.0 and <10.0 ng/mL must have documentation of a negative histologic biopsy of carcinoma of the prostate within 12 months prior to screening.

Who cannot join

  • History of radical prostatectomy, or other pelvic surgery or procedure, including any pelvic surgical procedure on the urinary tract apart from transurethral resection, pelvic surgery for malignancy or bowel resection, or a history of lower urinary tract malignancy or trauma. History of urinary retention or lower urinary tract (bladder) stones within 6 months of screening.
  • Current or previous history of malignant disease of the prostate.
  • Concomitant treatment with or ingestion of cytochrome P 450 3A4 (CYP3A4)-inducing or -inhibiting agents from 2 weeks prior to dosing and through the end of the study. Including herbal/food and other supplements, fruit, or fruit juices containing grapefruit or pomegranate components.
  • History of loss of vision in one eye because of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), regardless of whether this episode was in connection or not with previous PDE5 inhibitor exposure.
  • Subjects with chronic stable angina treated with long-acting nitrates, subjects with chronic stable angina who required short-acting nitrates in the 90 days prior to screening visit, or subjects with angina occurring during sexual intercourse in the 6 months prior to screening.
  • Subjects having met the criteria for unstable angina within 6 months prior to screening, history of myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass graft surgery within 90 days prior to screening, or percutaneous coronary intervention (for example, angioplasty or stent placement) within 90 days prior to screening.
  • Any evidence of heart disease (New York Heart Association [NYHA] greater than or equal to Class III) within 6 months of screening.
  • A history of cardiac arrest.

About this study

Official title: A Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of Tadalafil Administered Once Daily in Japanese and Non-Japanese Subjects With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics of tadalafil in Japanese and non-Japanese men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).

The safety of tadalafil will also be studied.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC) for Tadalafil and Metabolite IC710

    AUC for Day 1 is reported as AUC(tau [t], day 1), which is AUC from time zero to 24 hours (t) postdose on Day 1. AUC for Day 10 is reported as AUC(t,steady state [ss]), which is AUC during one 24-hour dosing interval at steady-state.

    Measured: 1 day and 10 days

  2. Pharmacokinetics: Concentration Maximum (Cmax) of Tadalafil and Metabolite IC710

    Measured: 1 day and 10 days

  3. Pharmacokinetics: Time to Concentration Maximum (Tmax) of Tadalafil and Metabolite IC710

    Measured: 1 day and 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tadalafil in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 1 site in Germany.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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 16 May 2012. 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 Germany. 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 16 May 2012). 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?

Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC) for Tadalafil and Metabolite IC710 (time frame: 1 day and 10 days). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 May 2012.
