Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the function of the bladder and urethra during urinary storage or voiding in men with signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia treated with either placebo or tadalafil.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design, multinational, 12-week study to compare the efficacy, dose response, and safety of tadalafil once a day versus placebo in men with signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia, including lower urinary tract symptoms.
To determine whether pomegranate tablets have a therapeutic effect on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Although ionizing radiations have been proposed for the prevention of intimal hyperplasia in coronary and peripheral arteries, information is lacking on how irradiation may prevent neointimal smooth-muscle cell proliferation and restenosis on prosthetic haemodialysis vascular access. We will assess the preventive effect of one dose of radiations (14 Gy) administered transcutaneously one day after dilatation of stenosis on prosthetic haemodialysis vascular access in a randomized controlled trial with a standardized clinical and ultrasonographic one-year follow-up.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two treatment arms (Tamsulosin OCAS 0.4 mg & placebo). The study comprises a 2-week placebo run-in followed by a 12-week treatment period.
Dutasteride is used in the treatment of benign prostate enlargement (BPH).It inhibits conversion of testosterone (T) into the more potent dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to stop prostate (and possibly prostate cancer) growth. DHT regulates the expression of certain genes in the prostate. The pharmacodynamics of DHT reduction in the prostate were never investigated until now, as every measurement would require prostate tissue retrieval, which is medically and ethically unacceptable. A recently developed test is able to quantitatively measure gene expression in prostate-borne cells, in urine sediments after prostate massage. By measuring this gene expression in patients using dutasteride, it has become possible to assess the pharmacodynamics of gene expression reduction, which is representative for the pharmacodynamics of DHT reduction. Repeated prostate tissue sampling has therefore become unnecessary. This newly gained knowledge will lead to a better understanding of the action of dutasteride and will possibly help improve treatment of symptomatic BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) and PrCa (Prostate Cancer)in the future.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of GI198745 0.5mg given once daily for 52 weeks to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the GreenLight™ model 120 delivering higher average power to allow for more flexibility in the working distance of the delivery device with the same power density to tissue as that of the current GreenLight model. In addition this study will examine the Laserscope GDD (guided delivery device) that has been designed exclusively for use with the GreenLight™ model 120.
The purpose of the study is to learn whether people who are experiencing an MCD (multicentric Castleman's Disease) flare will improve after taking valganciclovir. MCD is a type of inflammatory disease associated with Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8). Valganciclovir is FDA approved for treating a different type of Human Herpesvirus, but not approved for the treatment of HHV-8. It is therefore considered experimental in this study.
A new drug for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia is compared with placebo and tamsulosin (a drug belonging to the same therapeutic class) for to determine if it is safe and effective (the first phase of the study lasts approximately 18 weeks) and then is used for another 9 months to determine its long-term safety.
