Male self catherterisng observational study.
Investigator-initiated study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prostate artery embolization for the treatment lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia
This is a pilot study examining biological endpoints in men with localized prostate cancer who are scheduled to have radical prostatectomies and men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia/Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (BPH/LUTS) following botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injection. Patients will serve as their own controls by receiving BoNT-A injections into the right peripheral and transition zones and sham saline injections into the left peripheral and transition zones.
For ageing men, Health related quality of life ( HRQoL) is challenged by two common issues: the onset of bothersome urinary symptoms attributable to prostate enlargement and diminishing ability to maintain normal sexual activity and function; both issues are important to men, yet often the treatment of the former has adverse effects on the latter. Current medical and surgical treatments offer symptomatic improvement of urinary symptoms. However long recovery times, degradation of sexual function and incontinence may negatively affect a patient's QoL. Prostatic urethral lift (PUL) and prostate artery embolization (PAE) represent two evolving techniques with contrasting mechanisms of action (mechanical decompression vs angiographic embolization). Both are minimally invasive, yield relief of urinary symptoms and have similar safety profiles. More importantly neither causes degradation of sexual function or urinary continence. Although multiple studies are being reported on PUL and PAE alike, currently there are no prospective clinical trials comparing these two technologies. We aim to prospectively evaluate and compare HRQol outcomes of PUL and PAE. Results of this study could have a great impact on patient outcomes in men opting for minimally invasive, sexual function sparing treatment options for symptom relief from prostate enlargement.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Rezūm System and assess its effect on urinary symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single treatment of PRX302 for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) as compared to placebo.
This study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ozarelix 15 mg given intramuscular (IM) 2 weeks apart on the improvement of symptoms and the duration of improvement for up to 6 months in men with Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH) who are over 50 years of age.
The goal of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the FloStent, a medical device used to treat men with symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, compared to sham (procedure without deployment of the FloStent). All participants will undergo a flexible cystoscopy and those randomized to the treatment arm will receive the FloStent, while those randomized to the sham arm will not receive the FloStent.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single treatment of PRX302 for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) as compared to placebo.
This study is designed to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of a second transrectal intraprostatic injection of NX-1207 given to subjects with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) who previously received an injection of NX-1207 in an earlier U.S. clinical trial of NX-1207.
To gain clinical experience with the GreenLight HPS System, a system designed to vaporize and coagulate tissue in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia to reduce lower urinary tract symptoms.
