Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of mirabegron compared to oxybutynin chloride immediate release (oxybutynin IR) for a condition called neurogenic detrusor overactivity in individuals with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI).


Clinical Trial Description

Neurogenic detrusor overactivity or "NDO" is common in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and is a medical condition characterized by involuntary urinary bladder contractions. These bladder contractions can cause episodes of urinary incontinence (involuntary urine leakage) and/or high bladder pressures that can lead to poor drainage from the kidneys and urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Neurogenic detrusor overactivity is most commonly treated with a medication called oxybutynin (Ditropan); however, this medication is associated with side effects such as dry mouth and constipation. Mirabegron (Myrbetriq) is a newer medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of overactive bladder that does not cause dry mouth or constipation; however, its use in persons with SCI is investigational.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of mirabegron compared to oxybutynin chloride immediate release (oxybutynin IR) for neurogenic detrusor overactivity in individuals with SCI. ;
