About this study

Official title: Evolution of Patients Suffering From Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Treated With Alpha-adrenergic Blockade (JOSEPHINE)

The primary objective of this observational study was the assessment of prognosis factors for having recourse to prostatic surgery in patients with BPH who were administered class-1 alpha blockers. The secondary objectives were the assessment of the time from alpha-adrenergic blockade treatment initiation to surgery and the evolution of patients during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 19 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Assessment of prognosis factors for having recourse to prostatic surgery (time frame: up to 2 years). 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 19 Sep 2014.
