About this study

Official title: Safety and Performance of the BlueWind RENOVA™ System for the Treatment of Patients Diagnosed With Overactive Bladder (OAB) (OPTIMIST-1 - Overactive Bladder Posterior Tibial Implantable MIcro STimulator - 1)

Interventional, Prospective, Open Label study

Read the detailed description

Generally, subjects will be followed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9 and 12-months after activation with the RENOVA System.

The study will be conducted according the following phases:

  • Recruitment, baseline assessment and compatibility test: Subjects fulfilling all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled to the trial. Study candidates will sign an informed consent form, complete a standard 3-Day voiding diary, a quality of life questionnaire and global response assessment. Beck Depression Inventory II and General quality of life questionnaires will be completed in selected geographies. Study eligible subjects that have not experienced Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation treatment in the past will undergo a compatibility test to assure proper nerve conductivity. Data collected will serve as baseline.
  • Implantation: Patients with positive response to the compatibility test (or that received Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation treatment in the past) will undergo unilateral implantation 4±1 weeks following recruitment with the BlueWind RENOVA System. Intra-operative sensory/motor response will be tested to confirm accurate location of the implant.
  • Sensation assessment and activation: After a recovery period of approximately 30±7 days, subjects will complete a Brief 3-Day voiding diary and a quality of life questionnaire and a sensation assessment will be conducted: subjects will undergo an acute stimulation session of the tibial nerve to evaluate their sensory reaction to stimulation and parameters setting will be performed according to their individual sensations. Eventually, patients will be trained for system home use treatment. Therapy will be delivered daily for a minimum of 30 minutes once a day and maximum of 1 hour per day (in 2 sessions of 30 minutes), per physician discretion. Following activation of the device, patient will complete Brief 3-day voiding diaries once a week until the 1 month follow-up visit.
  • Follow-ups (1-, 2-, and 3-months post-device activation): A 3-Day voiding diary and QoL questionnaire will be collected (brief 3-Day diaries on 1-, and 2-months follow up visits; and a 3-Day standard voiding diary on the 3-month follow up). Global Response Assessment and Beck Depression Inventory II will be collected on the 3-month follow-up visit (Beck Depression Inventory in selected geographies). Stimulation parameters will be checked and adjusted as needed by: (a) changing current amplitude; and/or (b) changing stimulation frequency; and/or changing pulse width; and/or (c) changing the number of daily treatment sessions. Location of paresthesia will be recorded in each of the clinic visits. The visit at 2 months will be performed by phone call to assess the patient status. Clinic visit may be followed at the discretion of the clinical team.
  • Continued follow-ups: All subjects in the trial will undergo 4 additional visits (at 4-, 6- ,9- and 12-months post-device activation) until the end of the study at the 12-month visit. Similar to the visit at 2 months, the visit at 4 months will be performed by phone call to assess the patient status. Clinic visit may be followed at the discretion of the clinical team. Three-Day voiding diary, Quality of Life questionnaire, Global Response Assessment and Beck Depression Inventory II and General quality of life questionnaires (at selected geographies) will be collected at each of those visits (except for the 4- and 9-months visit in which only a 3-Day Brief voiding diary will be collected). General quality of life questionnaire will be completed at the 12-month visit in selected geographies. Stimulation parameters will be checked and adjusted as needed. Location of paresthesia will be recorded in each of the clinic visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing The RENOVA tibial nerve stimulation system in people with Overactive Bladder, run by BlueWind Medical.

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 14 inclusion and 23 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2017. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Incidence of serious adverse events (time frame: 6 and 12 months post-activation). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 May 2017.
