Filter by:This is a randomized, multi-center, double-blind, parallel-group study, enrolling approximately 100 male subjects diagnosed with CP/CPPS to evaluate the effect of 12-week treatment with AQX-1125 (active drug) compared to placebo. The subjects will be randomized to receive orally once-daily either AQX-1125 (200 mg) or placebo in a 1:1 ratio across approximately 30 centers in North America (United States and Canada). The study will consist of a screening period of up to 3 weeks, a 12-week treatment period followed by a 4-week off drug safety follow-up period, and an ophthalmic safety follow-up call at 3 months and visit at 6 months post last dose, for a total study duration of about 41 weeks.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) describes a common medical condition in men over 45 associated with voiding (obstructive) and storage (irritative) lower urinary tract symptoms and is in part related to prostate enlargement and obstruction. The standard medical therapy for this condition includes 5-alpha reductase inhibitors -5ARI (eg dutasteride) or alpha blocker therapy (eg tamsulosin), while the most effective medical therapy for BPH is the combination of these two medications. Approximately 10 to 20% of patients diagnosed with BPH also have either a diagnosis of or symptoms of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) with typical genito-urinary pain and discomfort. This particular subset of patients of BPH patients with prostatitis symptoms pose a therapeutic dilemma. CP/CPPS (organ specific phenotype) is the third most prevalent prostate disease after prostate cancer and BPH. CP/CPPS is very prevalent (3-9% of men) and represents a significant percentage of urology outpatients (3-8% of male outpatient visits)resulting in a major impact on quality of life of patients and economic costs to society. Clinical phenotyping allows for prediction of the patients with CP/CPPS most likely to respond to dutasteride and tamsulosin (age, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms [LUTS] and prostate related phenotypes [BPH]). It can be estimated that up to 30% of men currently diagnosed with CP/CPPS will include men with co-existing Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) We propose to determine the efficacy of JALYN (dutasteride-tamsulosin combination) in the amelioration of prostatitis symptoms in men diagnosed with CP/CPPS who have the following clinical phenotype; age = 45 years, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), enlarged prostate and Organ (prostate) specific symptoms (eg. BPH and CP/CPPS).
To determine the efficacy of thalidomide for treatment of the Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS).
