Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic drug interaction between Solifenacin and Tamsulosin in healthy male volunteers.
This is an open-label, single-arm, prospective interventional study to assess the tolerability and efficacy of Harnalidge® OCAS® 0.4 mg in Taiwan patients who are unsatisfied with tamsulosin 0.2 mg for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and refractory lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in decreasing the volume of the prostate gland. Participants: Study participants will be recruited from UNC Urology clinics as well as referring providers. We will include 15 men who are experiencing LUTS not controlled by medication with estimated prostate gland weight between 80 and 150 grams. Procedures (methods): Enrolled patients will undergo the standard work-up for a surgical prostate procedure. In addition, the patient's arteries will be evaluated with a pelvic CT angiogram. Then, patients will undergo prostatic artery embolization. Follow up visits will be scheduled at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the procedure. At the end of the follow-up period, if reduction in prostate gland size has made the patient eligible for transurethral therapy, they may proceed to such procedure or elect to undergo no further surgical procedure, depending on residual symptoms. Similarly, if insufficient gland size reduction has occurred, the patient may elect to pursue OP or no further procedure if they are no longer bothered by LUTS.
Study to evaluate Prostate Artery Embolization for the treatment of lower urinary track symptoms due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Size Greater Than 90 Grams.
Shear Wave Elastography (SWE™) is a quantitative elastography method for measuring tissue stiffness. The difference in stiffness between benign and malignant tumors has been demonstrated by other elastography methods (acoustic radiation force impulse imaging, transient elastography and/or magnetic resonance elastography). The investigators hypothesized that benign liver tumors are softer than malignant liver tumors measured by SWE™, allowing differentiation between the two by tumor stiffness expressed in kilopascal (kPa). In this study benign and malignant liver tumors will be evaluated in five groups: 1) hemangioma and 2) focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) representing the most common benign liver tumors; 3) metastases and 4) cholangiocarcinoma (CCC), both presenting malignant tumors mostly appearing in otherwise healthy liver, and 5) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mostly occurring in cirrhotic liver, which can potentially influence elastographic measurements therefore querying the appropriateness of comparison between tumors in healthy and cirrhotic liver. Enrolled patients will undergo transabdominal ultrasonography and SWE™ examination. The tumor stiffness will be measured five times for each tumor. Additionally, surrounding liver parenchyma stiffness will be measured. The nature of the liver tumor will be defined through a standard diagnostic workup according to current guidelines, including contrast enhanced multi-slice CT, MRI and/or cytology/histology, as applicable. In the final analysis the mean tumor stiffness and tumor-parenchyma ratio will be calculated for each group as well as for benign and malignant tumors separately, and cut-off values for the differentiation of various groups will be derived. The clinical value of the method will be appraised based on specificity, sensitivity, positive and negative predictive values, and AUC.
The study will include an implantation of the iTind device and 4 follow up visits up to 12 months after the implantation.
The purpose of this study is to gain information on the safety, efficacy, and quality of life in subjects who have had the GreenLight XPS procedure.
The aim of this study is to support the efficacy of Permixon 160 mg b.i.d. in treating subjects with symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), compared to placebo, using Tamsulosine LP 0.4 mg as a reference treatment.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ibrutinib in treating B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned or does not respond to treatment in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether it is safe for patients with HIV infection to receive ibrutinib while also taking anti-HIV drugs.
The objective of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of silodosin, which is a treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia with high selectivity to α1A-receptor, on patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia accompanied by nocturia.
