Trial summary

The purpose of the study is to characterize intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (time between the start of vaginal intercourse and the start of intravaginal ejaculation) in men with and without premature ejaculation (PE) and to assess the validity of patient-reported outcomes.

About this study

Official title: An Observational Study to Evaluate Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Men With and Without Premature Ejaculation

The purpose of the study is to characterize intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (time between the start of vaginal intercourse and the start of intravaginal ejaculation) in men with and without premature ejaculation (PE) and to assess the validity of patient-reported outcomes.

Read the detailed description

This is a multinational, multicenter, observational study in men with and without PE. The study consists of three visits: one visit for screening and enrollment, and two visits for observation after 1 and 2 months (total duration of 8 weeks). No study treatment for PE is administered to patients during the course of the study. Patients and their partners are expected to attempt sexual intercourse at least 2 times a week during the 8-week study period and to use a stopwatch to record the intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) during intercourse. At visits during the observation period "patients" (and/or partners if partners are responsible for completing questionaires) also provide patient-reported outcomes (PROs) by answering several questionnaires that include the topics of control over ejaculation, satisfaction with sexual intercourse, personal distress, interpersonal difficulty, and self-esteem. The study will estimate the distribution of the average IELT values for men with PE and men without PE.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT)

    Estimated distribution of the average IELT for both the premature ejaculation (PE) and non-PE populations will be calculated.

    Measured: Day 1 to Week 8

  2. Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO)

    Additional evidence of reliability and validity of PROs for patients with and without PE and their partners will be expolred. The PROs will include different parameters related to (control over ejaculation, satisfaction with sexual intercourse, personal distress, and interpersonal difficulty).

    Measured: Week 4 and Week 8

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Association between intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) and patient reportedout comes (PROs)

    Association between IELT and PROs used in this study will be explored.

    Measured: Up to Week 8

  2. Utility of the Male Sexual Function Scale and Ejaculation Questionnaires

    The study will explore utility of the Male Sexual Function Scale and Ejaculation Questionnaire as screening instruments.

    Measured: Day 1

  3. PROs and IELT as indicators to clasify PE status.

    The study will evaluate the ability of PROs and IELT to classify PE status

    Measured: Up to Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Erectile Dysfunction, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT) (time frame: Day 1 to Week 8). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Oct 2012.
