Study population: The sample size will include 60 de novo participants with UUI, or currently implanted participants with UUI. Participants may be implanted with either the rechargeable or recharge-free Axonics Systems.

Who may be able to join

  • Participants who are ≥ 21 years at the time of consent
  • Has a primary indication of UUI (participants with a secondary indication of UF or FI may also be enrolled)
  • Has a diagnosis of UUI for greater than or equal to 6 months prior to the date of consent
  • UUI episodes:
  • For currently implanted participants (Group A), they must be considered therapy responders with a >50% reduction in UUI episodes (based on their original baseline diaries) and satisfied with their SNM therapy
  • For de novo candidates (Group B), they must have completed a successful PNE documented with a >50% reduction in UUI episodes on a 3-day diary (a diary must exist within a medical record or equivalent)

About this study

A prospective, multi-center, study comparing continuous sacral neuromodulation (SNM) stimulation to daily cyclic stimulation of 2 hours "on" and 22 hours "off" using the Axonics System.

Read the detailed description

After consent is provided, the required visits are at Baseline, Day 0, 1-Month, and 3-Month. At the follow-up visits, a bladder diary is reviewed, symptoms are assessed, the PGI-I questionnaire is completed, and cyclic stimulation hours may be changed.

Being tested
Axonics System
Medical subject headings
Urinary Incontinence, Urge

De Novo groupThis group will be participants who are newly implanted with an Axonics System.
Receives: Device: Axonics System

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of daily cyclic stimulation of 2 hours "on" and 22 hours "off" in reducing UUI episodes by > 50% in newly implanted participants, or maintenance of efficacy in currently implanted participants with an implanted Axonics System

    Comparison of UUI episodes on a 3-day bladder diary at 3 months as compared to baseline UUI episodes

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate patient satisfaction with cyclic stimulation

    Analysis of the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scale. This scale evaluates the post-operative condition. The PGI-I has 1 question with 7 possible answers ranging from "very much better" (score of 1) to "very much worse" (score of 7).

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Overactive Bladder Syndrome and Urinary Urge Incontinence, run by Axonics, Inc. at 6 sites 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 9 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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. 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 stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision not to pursue additional sites and enrollments for this study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To evaluate the efficacy of daily cyclic stimulation of 2 hours "on" and 22 hours "off" in reducing UUI episodes by > 50% in newly implanted participants, or maintenance of efficacy in currently implanted participants with an implanted Axonics System (time frame: 3 months). 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 2 Apr 2025.
