About this study

Official title: Minimal Invasive Urology Society Benign Prostatic Obstruction (BPO) Study Group Data Collection Project

This national, multicenter, prospective registry aims to collect standardized perioperative and follow-up data on patients undergoing minimally invasive surgical management for benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) in Turkey. Procedures include transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), holmium/thulium laser enucleation (HoLEP/ThuLEP), Rezum®, and other contemporary techniques. By prospectively recording patient characteristics, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes in a unified electronic database, the project seeks to provide high-quality real-world evidence to support clinical decision-making, guideline updates, and future hypothesis-driven sub-studies.

Read the detailed description

The ReMIUS-BPO registry is designed as a prospective, observational, multicenter cohort study under the coordination of the Minimal Invasive Urology Society. Participating centers will record preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data of patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery for BPO using a secure, standardized electronic case report form. Preoperative variables include demographics, comorbidities, medication history, prostate volume, and validated symptom scores (IPSS, OAB-V8). Intraoperative data include surgical technique, energy source, operative time, and complications. Postoperative follow-up will record early and late complications, catheterization time, changes in symptom scores, and re-intervention rates.

The registry aims to:

  1. Create a comprehensive, analyzable national dataset for BPO surgery.
  2. Compare surgical outcomes between different energy sources.
  3. Evaluate the impact of the learning curve on operative time.
  4. Determine long-term reoperation rates. The data will serve as a platform for future hypothesis-driven studies and potential embedded randomized controlled trials.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Minimally invasive surgical treatment for benign prostatic obstructionProcedure or surgery

    Surgical management of BPO using contemporary minimally invasive procedures, including but not limited to: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP), Thulium laser enucleation of the prostate (ThuLEP), Rezum® water vapor thermal therapy.

    Procedures are performed according to standard clinical practice at each participating center, with perioperative and follow-up data prospectively recorded in the MIUS registry.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of eligible BPO surgery patients successfully enrolled with complete baseline, perioperative, and follow-up data in the MIUS registry

    Percentage of eligible patients undergoing minimally invasive surgical treatment for BPO whose data sets are complete for all predefined variables (baseline characteristics, perioperative details, and follow-up outcomes) in the national MIUS registry. Completeness is defined as ≥95% of required data fields filled for each case.

    Measured: Within 12 months after each patient's surgery date

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Comparison of perioperative complication rates between surgical techniques

    Proportion of patients experiencing perioperative complications (Clavien-Dindo classification) following TURP, HoLEP, ThuLEP, or Rezum®

    Measured: up to 4 weeks

  2. Change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)

    Mean change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) from baseline to 12 months in patients undergoing minimally invasive surgical treatment for benign prostatic obstruction (BPO).

    The IPSS ranges from 0 to 35, with higher scores indicating more severe lower urinary tract symptoms (worse outcome).

    Measured: Baseline to 12 months post-surgery

  3. Change in maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax)

    Mean difference in Qmax (mL/sec) between preoperative measurement and 12-month follow-up.

    Measured: Baseline to 12 months post-surgery

  4. Reoperation-free survival

    Proportion of patients not requiring repeat surgical intervention for BPO within 5 years after the index procedure.

    Measured: Up to 5 years post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, run by Ondokuz Mayıs University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 2 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 2025. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Proportion of eligible BPO surgery patients successfully enrolled with complete baseline, perioperative, and follow-up data in the MIUS registry (time frame: Within 12 months after each patient's surgery date). 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 8 Sep 2025.
