NCT ID: NCT06394830 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Safety, Efficacy, and Frequency of Administration of VNX001 in the Treatment of Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS)

Start date: June 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label study that will enroll participants with Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS). The study will assess PRN (as needed) dosing of up to 6 intravesical (via catheter) doses of VNX001 (study drug) to treat acute instances of moderate to severe bladder pain over a 14-day period. The main aim of the study is to tally the number of doses and assess pain before and after doses. The study will review the safety and tolerability of VNX001. Participants will need to attend up to seven (7) clinic visits (1 for screening and up to 6 visits for VNX001 dosing) or at least one (1) clinic visit (for a combined screening/dosing visit) and 5 telephone visits over the course of 14 days. Participants will also be asked complete a diary or telephone call each day of the study, in order to record bladder pain, urinary urgency, side effects, and medications taken.

NCT ID: NCT06366269 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Acupuncture First for IC/BPS

Start date: June 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if acupuncture in addition to behavioral changes can better treat in women with bladder pain syndrome (also known as interstitial cystitis) that have not received other treatments. The main question it aims to answer is: Does acupuncture improve pain symptoms on the Interstitial Cystitis Index? Researchers will compare six (6) weeks behavioral management alone to behavioral management and acupuncture. Participants will - complete surveys about their bladder pain symptoms - make behavioral changes that have been shown to improve bladder pain symptoms - attend six (6) weekly acupuncture sessions - attend six (6) weekly physical therapy sessions after finishing acupuncture

NCT ID: NCT06299683 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Pain Type and Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome Treatment

Start date: May 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a severe pain condition affecting 3-8 million people in the United States lacking treatments that work. Emotional suffering is common in IC/BPS and known to make physical symptoms worse, and studies show patient sub-groups respond differently to treatment. Individuals with IC/BPS have distinct subgroups, or "phenotypes," largely characterized by the distribution of pain throughout the body. Supported by our preliminary evidence, the overall goal of this project is to assess how IC/BPS phenotype may affect response to two different therapies often given without regard to patient phenotype, pelvic floor physical therapy (PT) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for IC/BPS.

Investigation of the Effectiveness of Acupuncture in Patients Diagnosed With Interstitial Cystitis

Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome is a non-bacterial chronic inflammatory disease of the bladder characterized by lower urinary tract symptoms such as dysuria, irritating urgency, and nocturia, as well as pelvic pain associated with bladder filling. The International Continence Society (ICS) defines bladder pain syndrome as "a complaint of suprapubic pain due to bladder filling accompanied by urinary system symptoms such as increased daytime and nighttime urinary frequency as a result of the exclusion of proven urinary infection or other obvious pathologies." Acupuncture is an important treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine that has been used for more than 2500 years and is performed by placing needles at specific points on the skin. In the literature, clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture in Interstitial Cystitis and its effectiveness in relieving symptoms has been demonstrated. In the light of these data, our aim in our multi-centered study is to investigate the effectiveness of acupuncture in relieving symptoms and improving the quality of life in patients diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis. In our study, patients who applied to the Urology Clinic between 01.02.2024 and 01.07.2024 with pelvic pain or discomfort lasting more than 6 months and lower urinary tract symptoms such as frequent urination, dysuria and nocturia will be examined and evaluated with suspicion of Interstitial Cystitis diagnosis.

NCT ID: NCT06212661 Enrolling by invitation - Migraine Clinical Trials

Migraine Medication Effects on Urinary Symptoms

Start date: April 5, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A prospective observational cohort trial to study the effects of CGRP inhibitors (CGRPi) on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and bladder/pelvic pain. Candidates for either CGRPi or an alternative therapy for refractory migraines (OnabotulinumtoxinA (BoNTA) extracranial muscle injections) with baseline LUTS will be recruited. The investigators will assess LUTS and pelvic pain using validated symptom and quality-of-life questionnaires, pretreatment and at 3 months post-treatment follow-up, comparing change in symptoms based on treatment received.

NCT ID: NCT06209008 Completed - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Submucosal Intravesical Injection of Platelet-rich Plasma in the Treatment of Painful Bladder Syndrome

PRP
Start date: April 1, 2021
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) is characterized by a constellation of bladder symptoms, including urinary frequency, urgency, nocturia, and pelvic pain. Current intravesical IC/PBS treatment strategies include substances injected submucosally such as botulinum toxin A (BoNTA), or installed intravesically such as bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), resiniferatoxin (RTX), lidocaine, chondroitin sulfate (CS), oxybutynin, and pentosan polysulfate (PPS). Plasma Rich Protein (PRP) is rich in growth factors, such as platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, and transforming growth factor. With the help of these growth factors the defective epithelium can undergo proliferation, differentiation, and wound healing.

Amniotic Membrane Therapy for Interstitial Cystitis/Painful Bladder Syndrome

Start date: January 2024
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) is a clinical syndrome in which patients report symptoms of bladder and/or pelvic pain with pressure and/or discomfort associated with urinary frequency and urgency. The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of amniotic membrane therapy in patients with interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) as defined by clinically-significant improvement in validated symptom questionnaires.

NCT ID: NCT06013449 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Efficacy of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field and Heparin/Bupivacaine Instillations

Start date: July 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to test the idea that Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy will serve as a safe therapeutic modality that can effectively be administered simultaneously with bladder instillations of a bupivacaine-heparin cocktail to improve the chronic pain and/or associated symptoms of Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) patients. The study team will distribute the PEMF device to female adults with IC/BPS who have been prescribed bladder instillations of bupivacaine-heparin to see if PEMF therapy in conjunction with bladder instillations of heparin and bupivacaine may be more effective in reducing pain levels and symptomatology of IC/BPS than instillations alone.

NCT ID: NCT05912946 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Interstitial Cystitis

Assessing the Effectiveness and Safety of Interferon Bladder Infusion for the Treatment of Interstitial Cystitis

Start date: October 15, 2023
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is one of the most intractable diseases of Urogynecology. The main clinical manifestations of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain are frequent urination and severe overflowing bladder pain. Due to the unclear pathological mechanism and the diversity of clinical manifestations and pathological features of the disease, the diagnosis is mainly to exclude suspicious diseases. At present, IC/BPS treatment mainly includes oral administration of mast cell stabilizing drugs such as sodium pentosan sulfate and anticholinergic drugs, or bladder instillation of dimethyl sulfone, hyaluronic acid and other drugs directly acting on the bladder mucosa, or surgical treatment such as sacrospinal radiculotomy and peripheral denervation of the bladder, but all can only relieve clinical symptoms and improve quality of life, and can not be targeted etiological treatment according to the pathological mechanism. Research showed JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) virus may be the original pathogen causing the development of IC/BPS. Interferon, as a broad-body antiviral agent, plays a critical role in triggering innate and adaptive immune responses against viral replication and infection. It can inhibit the replication and transcription of JCPyV through a variety of pathways. Interferon may be a potential specific drug for IC/BPS. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of interferon bladder perfusion for IC/BPS.
