Filter by:Dutasteride and tamsulosin are to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Studies show that when given together, there is more improvement in symptoms than either drug alone. In this study, we are looking to see if 2 different formulations of tamsulosin in our combination capsules are the same after 7 days of dosing as the US commercial tamsulosin and dutasteride.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the daily consumption of decaffeinated green tea catechins (Polyphenon E®) for 1 year reduces the rate of progression to prostate cancer (PCa) in men diagnosed with HGPIN or ASAP. The aim was to recruit and treat 240 (120 men/arm) men diagnosed with the prostate condition HGPIN or ASAP with a capsule form of standardized green tea extract called Polyphenon E or placebo for a 12-month period and see if it can prevent progression of the prostate condition to prostate cancer. Investigators wanted to see if Polyphenon E reduces lower urinary tract symptoms and if this can be taken safely over one year. Investigators wanted to study how Polyphenon E is able to slow the progression to prostate cancer, or the mechanism of action of Polyphenon E. If the safety and the effects of Polyphenon E on slowing down the progression of prostate cancer is shown in our study, this will be a safe way of treating men who are at high risk or men like you who have a prostate condition that increases your chances of getting prostate cancer, so that we can prevent prostate cancer in the future.
This study has 4 phases: screening phase (visit 1), treatment phase (visit 2 - 6 mths after treatment initiation), and end of treatment phase (visit 3 - end of year 1). Only in the case a serious adverse event (SAE) arises, will there be a follow up phase (visit 4).
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a common treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). A common complication of TURP is blood loss. Preliminary data suggest that preoperative Finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, may reduce blood loss during TURP. However, no study has examined the effect of preoperative Finasteride on clinical outcomes. The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of preoperative Finasteride versus placebo in BPH patients undergoing TURP. Participants will be stratified by prostate volume (30 to 65 grams versus 66 to 100 grams) and randomly assigned to preoperative Finasteride or placebo. The primary end point is incidence of RBCT. Secondary end points are standard units of red blood cells transfused, variables related to perioperative bleeding (incidence of readmission, incidence of return to hospital, length of hospital stay), blood loss, change in serum hemoglobin, change in serum hematocrit, blood loss per gram of resected prostate tissue, operating time, change in AUA-SS, and change in HRQOL.
The purpose of the study is to compare alfuzosin GITS once daily versus placebo in achieving a successful TWOC after AUR due to BPH, among Chinese males in Hong Kong, and in delaying or avoiding a TURP.
The purpose of the study is to compare two alpha blockers, terazosin and doxazosin GITS, in achieving a successful TWOC after AUR due to BPH, among Chinese males in Hong Kong, and in delaying or avoiding a TURP.
This qualitative interview-based study will investigate the impact that living with congenital adrenal hyperplasia has for women in the following areas: health-related quality of life (HRQL), psychological health, and health-seeking behaviors.
Study to look at safety and effectiveness of different doses of tadalafil on prostate related genital/urinary tract problems.
Primary: Evaluate the safety and onset of symptom relief using an acute I-PSS form (7 day form). Determine onset of urinary peak flow improvement after 7 days Secondary: Determine improvement in Bother Score after 7 & 28 days; improvement in sexual function after 28 days; assess one-month efficacy and safety
The primary purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the change in the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) total score from the beginning of the study to the end of the study for subjects randomized to tadalafil 5mg once a day dosing and placebo once a day dosing for 12 weeks of treatment.
