About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Mirabegron and Behavioral Modification Including Pelvic Floor Exercise for Overactive Bladder in Parkinson's Disease. (MAESTRO)

The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug, Mirabegron, is safe and effective in treating symptoms of Overactive Bladder in people with Parkinson's Disease.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized 1:1 placebo-controlled 10-week study of Mirabegron as add-on therapy to an educational intervention of behavioral modification including pelvic floor exercise (PFE) in a cohort of 40 Parkinson's subjects over the age of 30 with overactive bladder (OAB). Active drug will be Mirabegron 25 mg daily with up-titration to 50 mg daily after 5 weeks. Subjects will be enrolled based on response to an overactive bladder questionnaire at visit 2.

Enrolled subjects will have 4 study visits to the clinic as well as 2 phone visits.

Enrolled subjects will be asked to record urinary symptoms and pelvic floor exercises in a diary at 3 separate time points for a 72 hour period.

Being tested
Mirabegron, Placebo
Medical subject headings
Parkinson Disease

What participants receive

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

MirabegronActive comparator1:1 randomization to receive Mirabegron 25 mg daily or placebo at visit 2. At visit 3 all subjects who have tolerated Mirabegron 25 mg daily (no adverse events on this dose) will be up-titrated to Mirabegron 50 mg daily. This will be dispensed as two 25mg tablets or, for those in the placebo arm, two placebo tablets.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in the Mean Daily Overactive Bladder-Symptom Composite Score.

    The primary outcome measure will be the change in the mean daily Overactive Bladder-Symptom Composite Score (OAB-SCS) from baseline (visit 2) to visit 4.

    The Over active Bladder- Symptom Composite Score requires subjects to record the severity of urgency of each micturition over a 72 hour period. Subject ratings ranges from 1 to 6 for each micturition as follows: 1. Not at all, 2.A little bit, 3.Somewhat 4.Quite a bit, 5. A great deal, 6. A very great deal. Maximum score depends on number of micturition episodes in the 72 hour period, as the rating of each episode is summed to get the total score. Higher scores indicate worse symptoms of overactive bladder.

    Measured: 7-82 days. From visit 2 (baseline) to visit 4

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Symptom Severity Scale( OAB-q)

    Overactive Bladder questionnaire symptom severity scale (OAB-q), Visit 3 and Visit 4 vs. baseline Scale ranges from 8 to 48 the higher score indicating worse symptoms.

    Measured: baseline (7-14 days post visit 1), visit 3( 32-40 days post visit 2) and visit 4(74-82 days post visit 2)

  2. Non- Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS)

    Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS), which includes questions about 9 different categories of non-motor symptoms in PD, including urinary symptoms; Visit 3 and Visit 4 vs. baseline.

    Symptoms assessed over the last month. The scale ranges from 0 to 360, with higher scores indicating worse symptoms.

    Measured: baseline (7-14 days post visit 1), visit 3 (32-40 days post visit 2) and visit 4 (74-82 days post visit 2)

  3. Patient Perception of Bladder Condition

    Patient Perception of Bladder Condition at Visit 3 and Visit 4 vs. baseline. the scale ranges from 1 to 6 with higher score indicating worse outcome

    Measured: baseline (7-14 days post visit 1), visit 3 (32-40 days post visit 2) and visit 4 (74-82 days post visit 2)

  4. Subjects Global Impression of Change

    Subject's Global Impression of Change at Visit 3 and Visit 4 vs. baseline the scale ranges from 0 to 7 with higher score indicating worse out come .

    Measured: baseline (7-14 days post visit 1), visit 3 (32-40 days post visit 2) and visit 4 (74-82 days post visit 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mirabegron in people with Parkinsons Disease, run by Daniel Burdick, MD at 1 site in United States.

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 8 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 16 Aug 2021. 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 United States. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Aug 2021). 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?

Change in the Mean Daily Overactive Bladder-Symptom Composite Score. (time frame: 7-82 days. From visit 2 (baseline) to visit 4). 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 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
