About this study

Official title: The Changes of Urine Growth Factors Level in Patients With Benigh Prostate Hyperplasia After Medical Treatment

The Changes of Urine Growth Factors Level in Patients With Benigh Prostate Hyperplasia after medical treatment.

Read the detailed description

The prevalence of benign prostate hyperplasia, like medical illness such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus and stroke, increase by age. Benign prostate hyperplasia will cause bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms in the middle and aged male. Previous studies have showed that overactive bladder syndrome (urge, frequency, nocturia or urinary incontinence) has been considered as an important factor to predict successful treatment.

Urine nerve growth factor level, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and endothelium vascular growth factor have been proved as a simple and noninvasive biomarker for diagnosing overactive bladder. As a result, investigator will investigate the changes of these growth factors level in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia before and after three and six-months medical treatment. In addition, investigator can understand whether overactive bladder will have effects on successful medical treatment in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Silodosin in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by En Chu Kong Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 6 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 28 Feb 2024. 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 Taiwan. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Urine growth factors level (time frame: One month after medical treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06282731, which also lists 51 linked publications.

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 28 Feb 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
