Researchers are looking for a new way to treat people suffering either from a condition where the bladder is unable to hold urine normally (overactive bladder), or a condition in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the womb grows outside the womb (endometriosis) or a condition where the cough lasts longer than 8 weeks in adults (chronic cough). BAY1817080 is a new drug that is in development as a potential treatment for these conditions. In this trial, the researchers want to learn how a new liquid form of BAY1817080 is taken up by the body in a small number of healthy participants. The trial will include men who are aged 18 to 54. The trial will have 2 parts: A and B. The participants in Part A will stay at the trial site for about 5 days. During this time, the participants will take 1 dose of a liquid form of BAY1817080 by mouth. The doctors will take blood and urine samples and check the participants' health. Part A will be done so the researchers can see how much BAY1817080 gets into the participants' blood. The participants in Part B will stay at the trial site for about 16 days followed by a maximum of 4 re-admission visits over 24 hours at intervals of 7 days. These participants will take 1 dose of a liquid form of BAY1817080 labeled with a radioactive substance (carbon 14), which means it is "radiolabeled". This allows the researchers to understand how BAY1817080 moves through and leaves the body. During Part B, the doctors will take blood, urine, stool, and vomit samples if applicable. They will also check the participants' health.

An altered urinary microbiome (UM) may explain the symptoms in overactive bladder (OAB) patients who were previously considered to have "idiopathic" OAB. To date, most research on the relationship between OAB and the UM has focused on differentiating between the UM of a normal bladder and that of an OAB bladder. There is currently a paucity of data on the way that OAB therapy impacts the UM. One of the few studies to evaluate the UM pre- and post-OAB treatment focused on how management with solifenacin affected the UM, but no studies have evaluated how intravesical onabotulinumtoxin A injections (IOI) affects the UM. Understanding IOI's impact on the UM is particularly interesting because despite both anticholinergics and IOI exerting antimuscarinic affects on the bladder, IOI is often successful when anticholinergics are not. This raises the question of what other mechanisms of action IOI may have in the bladders of OAB patients - one hypothesis is that it might stabilize the UM in those select patients who suffer from OAB due to an altered UM. The primary objective of this study is therefore to determine the UM profiles of OAB patients before and after treatment with IOI.
Fesoterodine (Toviaz™) extended-release (ER) tablets are currently manufactured by Aesica Pharmaceuticals, Zwickau, Germany (Zwickau). An additional manufacturing location at Pfizer Freiburg, Germany (Freiburg) has been identified. This pivotal bioequivalence (BE) study is being conducted to satisfy the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory requirements for the qualification of the Freiburg manufacturing site. Overall Study Design This is an open-label, randomized, single-dose, 4-period, 4-treatment, 2-sequence, two 2-way crossover study in healthy participants. This study will assess the BE of Fesoterodine (Toviaz™) 4 mg and 8 mg ER tablets manufactured at Zwickau (Reference) versus Freiburg (Test). Study participants will include healthy male and/or female individuals between the ages of 18 and 55 years, inclusive. Approximately 18 participants who fulfill entry criteria will be randomized to 1 of the 2 treatment sequences as shown in the table below.
Medical treatment for overactive bladder is acceptable widely. However, the effect of drug treatment is different due to compliance and side effect of the drug. Biofeedback-assisted pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is the first line recommendation for overactive bladder. The slow effect of biofeedback-assisted pelvic floor muscle training leads to low motivation for continuous treatment and results in compliance difference. This slow effect also changes the degree of improvement in the treatment of overactive bladder. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy for treatment of female overactive bladder.
BAY1817080 is currently under clinical development to treat pain related to unexplained chronic cough or chronic cough not affected by a treatment (refractory and/or unexplained chronic cough, RUCC), or a condition where the bladder is unable to hold urine normally (overactive bladder, OAB) or a condition in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the womb grows outside the womb (endometriosis). Especially in elderly patients with OAB or RUCC, renal impairment is frequent. Renal impairment which co-occurs in especially in elderly patients with OAB or RUCC is a common condition in which the kidneys are not filtering the blood as well as they should. End stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis is a condition in which patients kidneys are no longer able to work as they should and require treatment to filter wastes from the blood. The goal of the study is to learn more about the safety of BAY1817080, how it is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the study drug given in men and women with moderate renal impairment and with those who have end stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis compared with matched participants with normal kidney function.
Tibial nerve stimulation (TNS) has been shown to be an effective alternative for the management of the overactive bladder (OAB). Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) uses a series of regular electrical pulses to stimulate the tibial nerve. Numerous studies have positively shown the efficacy of this treatment. These studies have included multicentric, double-blind, randomized sham-controlled study of patients with idiopathic OAB. , . In 2013 the British National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance has added TTNS as a second-line option for the management of female urinary incontinence , . In reality, the vast majority of patients treated using tibial nerve receive treatment percutaneously (PTNS) by inserting a needle into their lower leg. PTNS requires 12 visits to a physician's office and a painful treatment experience. From a physician's perspective PTNS is resource intensive in terms of time, financial and staff commitments. As a result, PTNS is often not a feasible option from the point of view of health care delivery. Moreover, the treatment may not be an option for patients whose schedule or ability to travel is limited. These issues are exacerbated for those with disabilities requiring special transport arrangements and who have trouble committing to 12 expensive and long trips to receive treatment. Additionally, 8% of patients who undergo PTNS complain of adverse effects which include pain, bruising, tingling or bleeding at the insertion site of the 34-gauge needle. As a direct result of these limitations long-term follow up studies of patients undergoing PTNS treatment show poor compliance to PTNS over time . Non-invasive, homecare TTNS devices such as the ZIDA Wearable Neuromodulation System are on the cusp of achieving regulatory clearance. TTNS, stimulates transcutaneously at a home-based setting and at least one study has explored the efficacy of this treatment method . Early results have demonstrated improvements in OAB symptom scores and urodynamic parameters . So far, these studies have employed standard commercial TENS devices (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation). These studies have used a variety of treatment frequencies to stimulate the tibial nerve at frequencies between 10 to 40 Hz, patient have been advised which pre-determined stimulation settings can be used for home care treatment. Commercial TENS devices limit mobility of patients during the time that the nerve is being stimulated.
BAY1817080 is currently under clinical development to treat pain related to unexplained chronic cough or chronic cough not affected by a treatment (refractory and/or unexplained chronic cough, RUCC), or a condition where the bladder is unable to hold urine normally (overactive bladder, OAB) or a condition in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the womb grows outside the womb (endometriosis). In this study researchers want to learn more about the safety of BAY1817080, how it is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and gets rid of the study dug given as tablet in participants with mild, moderate or severe hepatic impairment and participants with normal liver function matched for age-, gender-, weight and race. The study will enroll 36 male and female participants in the age between 18 and 79 years. Participants with mild or moderate hepatic impairment and the matching participants will take multiple oral doses of study drug depending on the study plan. Participants with severe hepatic impairment and the matching participants will take a single oral dose of study drug during the study. Data from this study will provide researcher important information for further development of the study drug in particular on dose recommendation for patients with hepatic impairment.
