About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study Comparing the Effects of Botulinum Toxin A and Standard Oxybutynin Therapy as First Line Treatment for the Poorly Compliant Pediatric Neurogenic Bladder

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of Botulinum Toxin A as primary therapy for children with neurogenic bladder due to spina bifida and compare results with standard oral oxybutynin therapy. This study hopes to demonstrate that Botulinum Toxin A can maintain or improve bladder storage function without side effects associated with oxybutynin use.

Being tested
Oxybutynin, Botulinum Toxin A injection

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OxybutyninDrug

    standard oral therapy

  • Botulinum Toxin A injectionDrug

    10 units/kg injected into the detrusor muscle using cystoscopy

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess urodynamic effects of intravesical botulinum toxin A injection to standard oral dose therapy

    The following urodynamic parameters will be measured;

    1. Change in end fill pressure or detrusor leak point pressure (cm H2O)
    2. Change in 20 and 30 cm H2O below volumes expressed as percentage of bladder capacity
    3. Change in reflex volume (percentage of bladder capacity at which neurogenic detrusor overactivity starts)

    Measured: Primary outcomes will be assessed at 3 and 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Calculate accrual rate

    Measured: Secondary outcomes will be assessed at 6 months

  2. Calculate cross over rate

    Measured: Secondary outcomes will be assessed at 6 months

  3. Calculate adverse event rates

    Measured: Secondary outcomes will be assessed at 6 months

  4. Compare the side effects of standard oral therapy compared to Botulinum toxin A injection

    Measured: Secondary outcomes will be assessed at 6 months

  5. Calculate drop out rate

    Measured: Secondary outcomes will be assessed at 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Oxybutynin and Botulinum Toxin A injection in people with Neurogenic Bladder, run by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute OR Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph's at 1 site in Canada.

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 9 inclusion and 3 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 30 Oct 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 Canada. 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 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?

To assess urodynamic effects of intravesical botulinum toxin A injection to standard oral dose therapy (time frame: Primary outcomes will be assessed at 3 and 6 months). 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 30 Oct 2012.
