Clinical Trial Summary

This study focuses on the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia which causes lower urinary tract symptoms. The purpose of the research project is to evaluate PAE in terms of both medical and health economic outcomes. To evaluate whether there are any differences in effect (IPSS), complications, costs and perceived quality of life compared with TUR-P.

Intervention

Procedure:
Prostate Artery Embolization
Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is performed by experienced interventional radiologists. The method involves catheterization of the prostate vessels superselectively with two to three French microcatheters. PAE is performed with microspheres of 250 to 400 µm in size.
Transurethral Prostate Resection (TURP)
Under general/regional anesthesia, a resectoscope is inserted into the urethra that carries an electric metal loop (monopolar or bipolar diathermy) that is used to cut and extract the prostate tissue.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms Assess the change in the lower urinary tract symptoms using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire before and after prostate artery embolization procedure (PAE) compared to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) 24 months
Primary Health care costs Assess the health care costs after prostate artery embolization procedure (PAE) compared to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) 24 months
Secondary Adverse effects, Assess the adverse effects after prostate artery embolization procedure (PAE) compared to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) 24 months
Secondary Quality of life (Short Form Health Survey [EQ-5D-5L ]) Assess the quality of life after prostate artery embolization procedure (PAE) compared to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Scored 0-100, where 0 is the lowest and 100 the highest possible quality of life. 24 months
Secondary Erectile function Erectile function using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5). The possible scores for the IIEF-5 range from 5 to 25, and ED is classified into five categories based on the scores: severe (5-7), moderate (8-11), mild to moderate (12-16), mild (17-21), and no ED (22-25). 24 months
Secondary Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Assess the change in PSA 24 months
