About this study

Official title: Study on the Therapeutic Schedule and Mechanism of Suoquan Mixture Combined With Desmopressin to Children's Monosymptomatic Enuresis

Monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE) is a common pediatric developmental disorder. MNE refers to urinary incontinence in the sleep state in children aged ≥5 years, without other LUT symptoms, and without bladder dysfunction. Its pathogenesis mainly include overnight polyuria, overactive bladder, sleep-arousal dysfunction, genetics, and abnormal secretion of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH). Desmopressin is a synthetic analog of ADH arginine-vasopressin (AVP), which is used to treat central diabetes insipidus and primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE). Desmopressin decreases urine production at night when taken at bedtime. Insufficient ADH secretion at night will contribute to nocturnal polyuria, which is an important cause of NE. Therefore, desmopressin, a synthetic analog of ADH, is frequently used for NE and is an evidence-based therapy (grade ⅠA evidence). Some children, however, have desmopressin resistance and do not achieve the desired treatment goals. What's more,there's a high relapse rate of desmopressin after withdrawing. Suoquan mixture is a Chinese medicine commonly used to treat NE in children. It is composed of Cuscuta, Codonopsis, Psoralea corylifolia Linn ,Astragalus,mantis egg-case and ephedra. It has not only a certain cure rate but also has a lower relapse rate . However there's few evidence could prove that. In this study,the investigators compared the 3 month treatment response and relapse rate (RR) in the following 6 months of desmopressin and desmopressin plus suoquan, and observe if there will be a lower relapse rare in desmopressin plus Suoquan. Moreover, the investigators will try to explore the mechanism of Suoquan mixture in MNE.

  1. the relapse rate of MNE

    If Suoquan mixture plus desmopressin could reduce the relapse rate of MNE

    Measured: in 6 months after stopping drugs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Desmopressin and Suoquan in people with Monosymptomatic Nocturnal Enuresis, run by Children's Hospital of Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 5 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 11 Mar 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 China. 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?

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?

the relapse rate of MNE (time frame: in 6 months after stopping drugs). 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 11 Mar 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
