What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Change From Baseline in the Prostate Volume at Month 6

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as the prostate volume at Month 6 minus the volume at baseline, divided by the prostate volume at baseline and multiplied by 100. Prostate volume was measured by transrectal ultrasound.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Percent Change From Baseline in the Prostate Volume at Month 3

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as the prostate volume at Month 3 minus the volume at baseline, divided by the prostate volume at baseline and multiplied by 100. Prostate volume was measured by transrectal ultrasound.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  2. Change From Baseline in the Prostate Volume at Month 6

    Change from baseline was calculated as the prostate volume at Month 6 minus the volume at baseline. Prostate volume was measured by transrectal ultrasound.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  3. Change From Baseline in the Prostate Volume at Month 3

    Change from baseline was calculated as the prostate volume at Month 3 minus the volume at baseline. Prostate volume is measured by transrectal ultrasound.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in the Serum Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) at Month 6

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as serum DHT at month 6 minus the value at baseline ,divided by the baseline value and multiplied by 100.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  5. Percent Change From Baseline in the Serum DHT at Month 3

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as the DHT at Month 3 minus the value at baseline, divided by the baseline value and multiplied by 100.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  6. Change From Baseline in the Serum DHT at Month 6

    Change from baseline was calculated as the value of DHT at Month 6 minus the baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  7. Change From Baseline in the Serum DHT at Month 3

    Change from baseline was calculated as the value of DHT at Month 3 minus the baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  8. Percent Change From Baseline in the American Urological Association Symptom Index (AUA-SI) Score at Month 6

    Percent change from baseline is calculated as the AUA-SI score at month 6 minus the baseline AUA-SI score, divided by the baseline score and multiplied by 100. AUA-SI is a self-administered questionnaire that assesses the severity of benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 35; mild, 0-7; moderate, 8-19; severe, 20-35.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  9. Percent Change From Baseline in the AUA-SI Score at Month 3

    Percent change from baseline is calculated as the AUA-SI score at month 3 minus the baseline AUA-SI score, divided by the baseline score and multiplied by 100. AUA-SI is a self-administered questionnaire that assesses the severity of benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 35; mild, 0-7; moderate, 8-19; severe, 20-35.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  10. Change From Baseline in the AUA-SI Score at Month 6

    Change from baseline was calculated as the AUS-SI score at month 6 minus the baseline score. AUA-SI is a self-administered questionnaire that assesses the severity of benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 35; mild, 0-7; moderate, 8-19; severe, 20-35.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  11. Change From Baseline in the AUA-SI Score at Month 3

    Change from baseline was calculated as the AUA-SI score at month 3 minus the baseline score. AUA-SI is a self-administered questionnaire that assesses the severity of benign prostate hyperplasia symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 35; mild, 0-7; moderate, 8-19; severe, 20-35.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  12. Percent Change From Baseline in Maximum Urinary Flow Rate (Qmax) at Month 6

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as Qmax at Month 6 minus Qmax at baseline, divided by baseline Qmax and multiplied by 100. Qmax is the peak urinary flow measured by a uroflow meter.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  13. Percent Change From Baseline in Qmax at Month 3

    Percent change from baseline was calculated as Qmax at Month 3 minus Qmax at baseline, divided by baseline Qmax and multiplied by 100. Qmax is the peak urinary flow measured by a uroflow meter.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

  14. Change From Baseline in Qmax at Month 6

    Change from baseline was calculated as Qmax at Month 6 minus Qmax at baseline. Qmax is the peak urinary flow measured by a uroflow meter.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 6

  15. Change From Baseline in Qmax at Month 3

    Change from baseline was calculated as Qmax at Month 3 minus Qmax at baseline. Qmax is the peak urinary flow measured by a uroflow meter.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dutasteride 0.5mg capsule in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 12 sites in China.

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 4 inclusion and 20 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 21 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Mar 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percent Change From Baseline in the Prostate Volume at Month 6 (time frame: Baseline and Month 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00527605, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 21 Mar 2012.
