Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of combination therapy involving β3-adrenoceptor agonist, mirabegron, and α-blockers for the treatment of OAB symptoms in male patients with BPH.
We investigate the potential pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction between Tadalafil and Tamsulosin in healthy male volunteers who receive Tadalafil alone, Tamsulosin alone, and both together in a 3 period repeatedly.
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the prostatic arterial embolization (PAE) with Embozene® Microspheres (Boston Scientific) in sphere sizes of 250 µm for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic drug interaction between Solifenacin and Tamsulosin in healthy male volunteers.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and refractory lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in decreasing the volume of the prostate gland. Participants: Study participants will be recruited from UNC Urology clinics as well as referring providers. We will include 15 men who are experiencing LUTS not controlled by medication with estimated prostate gland weight between 80 and 150 grams. Procedures (methods): Enrolled patients will undergo the standard work-up for a surgical prostate procedure. In addition, the patient's arteries will be evaluated with a pelvic CT angiogram. Then, patients will undergo prostatic artery embolization. Follow up visits will be scheduled at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the procedure. At the end of the follow-up period, if reduction in prostate gland size has made the patient eligible for transurethral therapy, they may proceed to such procedure or elect to undergo no further surgical procedure, depending on residual symptoms. Similarly, if insufficient gland size reduction has occurred, the patient may elect to pursue OP or no further procedure if they are no longer bothered by LUTS.
Study to evaluate Prostate Artery Embolization for the treatment of lower urinary track symptoms due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Size Greater Than 90 Grams.
The purpose of this study is to gain information on the safety, efficacy, and quality of life in subjects who have had the GreenLight XPS procedure.
The objective of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of silodosin, which is a treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia with high selectivity to α1A-receptor, on patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia accompanied by nocturia.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent entity, affecting over 50% of men older than 60 years. The clinical picture of the disease includes lower urinary tract symptoms such as interrupted and weak urinary stream, nocturia, urgency and leaking and even sexual dysfunction in some individuals. Medical therapy is usually the first-line treatment. However, the efficacy of drugs like alpha-blockers is limited, and as disease progresses more invasive treatment options have to be taken into consideration. In cases with moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) is the standard treatment. TURP, however, is limited to prostates smaller than 60-80ml and the procedure is associated with a complication rate. The cumulative short-term morbidity rate is around 11% and the necessity for surgical revision is as high as 6%. Bleeding requiring transfusions and transurethral resection syndrome represent potentially serious threats to elderly and frail patients. Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) has been suggested as a minimal invasive alternative procedure, which can be performed in an outpatient setting with rapid recovery and low morbidity. The investigators hypothesize that PAE is non-inferior in the treatment of symptomatic BPH compared to conventional and established TUR-P.
This study aims to explore the feasibility of moxibustion as a supplementary intervention and to assess the sample size for verifying the effectiveness and safety of integrative treatment involving moxibustion compared with conventional treatment for patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) accompanying moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).
