Trial summary

Nerve growth factor (NGF), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels in urine were reported to increase in patients with overactive bladder (OAB). Also, administration of the anti-muscarinic agent was reported to decrease urinary NGF and ATP. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Urinary NGF, PGE2 and ATP: Potential Biomarkers for Diagnosis and Prediction of Treatment Efficacy in Overactive Bladder Patients

Nerve growth factor (NGF), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels in urine were reported to increase in patients with overactive bladder (OAB). Also, administration of the anti-muscarinic agent was reported to decrease urinary NGF and ATP.

The investigators aimed to explore the value of the urinary NGF, PGE2 and ATP as biomarker for predicting the treatment responsiveness and symptom relapse in OAB patients. So, the patients can be categorized into responder or non- responder and relapse or non-relapse groups. Ultimately, they can receive individualized treatments.

Being tested
Oxybutinin, Fesoterodine, Solifenacin, Propiverin, Trospium

What is being measured

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

  1. NGF/creatinine, PGE2/creatinine and ATP/creatinine level at pre-treatment and post-treatment of overactive bladder patients.

    Measured: 3 months after antimuscarinics medication (if, the improvement of symptoms meet the criteria of treatment completion at 3 months of medicaion) and 3 months after medication completion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. NGF/creatinine, PGE2/creatinine and ATP/creatinine level at pre-treatment and post-treatment of overactive bladder patients.

    Measured: 1 month after antimuscarinics medication and 1 months after medication completion

  2. NGF/creatinine, PGE2/creatinine and ATP/creatinine level at pre-treatment and post-treatment of overactive bladder patients.

    Measured: 4 and 6 months after antimuscarinics medication (if, the improvement of symptoms do not met the criteria of treatment completion at 3 months of medicaion)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oxybutinin, Fesoterodine, Solifenacin, Propiverin, Trospium in people with Overactive Bladder, 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 7 inclusion and 22 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.

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?

NGF/creatinine, PGE2/creatinine and ATP/creatinine level at pre-treatment and post-treatment of overactive bladder patients. (time frame: 3 months after antimuscarinics medication (if, the improvement of symptoms meet the criteria of treatment completion at 3 months of medicaion) and 3 months after medication completion). 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 2 Dec 2019.
