About this study

Official title: Change in Storage Symptoms Following Laser Prostatectomy: Comparison Between Potassium-titanyl-phosphate Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate (PVP) and Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP)

Recent literature indicated that postoperative storage symptoms after Photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) or holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) were often reported and generally more common than after transurethral prostatectomy (TURP). However, almost all literature focused on postoperative urgency or dysuria immediately after PVP or HoLEP. Thus, there has been a scarcity of data on serial changes of storage symptoms in the postoperative period after PVP or HoLEP and data on predicting factors that influence improvement in storage symptoms postoperatively. The aim of this study was to compare serial changes of postoperative storage symptoms between PVP and HoLEP, and to identify the predictors that influence improvement of storage symptoms postoperatively.

What is being measured

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

  1. the subtotal storage symptom score of the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)

    a reduction by ≥ 50% of the subtotal storage symptom score according to the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) after the surgery compared to baseline

    Measured: 12 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2014. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jae-Seung Paick, doctor of philosophy (82-2-2072-2422, jspaick@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the subtotal storage symptom score of the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) (time frame: 12 months after surgery). 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 27 Feb 2014.
