Filter by:Detrusor underactivity (DUA) in men is responsible for LUTS in a significant minority, the symptoms being indistinguishable from those seen in BOO. The International Continence Society (ICS) defines DUA as 'a detrusor contraction of inadequate magnitude and/or duration to effect complete bladder emptying in the absence of urethral obstruction. Whilst a reduced maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) is indicative of voiding dysfunction, flow studies cannot distinguish between DUA and BOO, which are the two principal causes of low flow rates. DUA is diagnosed from a pressure-flow study (PFS)and is characterized by a low-pressure, poorly sustained, or wave-like detrusor contraction with an associated poor flow rate. Overactive bladder (OAB) is the most common term currently used in clinical medicine to describe a complex of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) with or without incontinence but most commonly consisting of urgency, frequency, nocturia, troublesome or incomplete emptying,and, occasionally, pain. With the exception of pain and incontinence, these symptoms are often found together; thus, the term LUTS has come to replace previous terms, such as urgency-frequency syndrome,urethral syndrome, and prostatism. Drug treatment is frequently used as the initial management approach for LUTS in older men.Among men who desire treatment, general practice prescribing data have shown that antimuscarinics are not often given to elderly men. There is theoretical concern that the inhibitory effect of antimuscarinics on detrusor contraction could aggravate voiding difficulties or cause urinary retention in patients with BOO. There are virtually no data evaluating the safety and efficacy of solifenacin treatment in men with DUA and OAB.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of solifenacin with oxybutynin immediate-release (IR) for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB).
This is a two-part study. Part 1 is designed to find the best modified release formulation of GW423753; Part 2 is designed to use the selected formulation(s) from Part 1 to find out if food affects the way the medication is processed by the body.
To evaluate the effect of fesoterodine on patient satisfaction and overactive bladder (OAB) symptom relief in OAB patients who were dissatisfied with their prior therapy with tolterodine.
A new drug for overactive bladder is compared to placebo to determine if it is safe and effective. The study lasts approximately 12 weeks.
This study will test the effectiveness and safety of two doses of solabegron against placebo in reducing the symptoms of overactive bladder.
This study will look at a drug for OAB (solifenacin) in combination with a non drug treatment (bladder training) compared to the drug on its own. The study will compare the symptoms of OAB by assessing patient diaries and other patient reported outcomes.
The study will examine which dose of YM178 is best in terms of efficacy, safety and tolerability compared to placebo and compared to tolterodine, a marketed product.
This is a Phase IIa study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of GW679769 vs placebo on symptoms of urgency with urge incontinence, frequency and nocturia associated with overactive bladder in women.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A in treating overactive bladder in spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis patients.
