Filter by:Emerging from a differential proteomic study of sample pairs of prostate cancer and benign tissue, annexin A3 (ANXA3) was chosen as a potential novel biomarker for the early and non-invasive diagnosis of prostate cancer. We wanted to show or investigate, that: - ANXA3 can be detected in urine after standard digital rectal examination. - ANXA3 has better specificities than tPSA, in particular in the grey zone of PSA - ANXA3 can help avoid unnecessary biopsies - ANXA3 can in the long run replace PSA as a marker
The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the superiority of SL77.0499-10 10mg once daily over placebo and the non-inferiority versus tamsulosin hydrochloride after 12 weeks treatment in terms of the efficacy in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms related to BPH. The secondary objective is to assess the safety of SL77.0499-10 in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms related to BPH in comparison with placebo and tamsulosin hydrochloride.
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.
The study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Dutasteride in patients who have failed Finasteride therapy for their symptomatic benign prostatic enlargement/ hypertrophy (BPE/H).
To determine whether pomegranate tablets have a therapeutic effect on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
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.
