Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 50 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects will include males who are scheduled to undergo cardiac catheterization or peripheral arteriography at UC Davis Medical Center who have erectile dysfunction and poor response to oral phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis and Levitra) as determined by their response to a standardized questionnaire. Dissatisfaction will be defined as a score of 21 or less on the ILEF-5 (International Index of Erectile Function questionnaire).

Who may be able to join

  • Male patients
  • at least 50 years
  • erectile dysfunction
  • dissatisfaction with their use of a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor
  • coronary artery disease (or at risk for coronary artery disease)
  • undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization or patients with peripheral vascular disease undergoing peripheral arteriography

Who cannot join

  • Patients who respond favorably to phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors
  • known non-vascular etiologies of their erectile dysfunction
  • probable neurogenic erectile dysfunction due to radiation injury, surgery, or transurethral resection of the prostate
  • calculated GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 will also be excluded
  • disease that necessitates complex percutaneous intervention will be excluded per the investigators discretion

About this study

The specific aim of this pilot study is to describe the angiographic prevalence and pattern of internal pudendal artery (and associated inflow vessel) atherosclerosis in patients with erectile dysfunction who are non-responsive to PDE-5 inhibitors (i.e., Viagra) who are referred for clinically-indicated cardiac catheterization.

Read the detailed description

The specific aim of this study is to determine if the deep penile arteries can be seen angiographically from the iliac arteries to delineate penile vasculature. Significant obstructive atherosclerotic disease of the deep penile arteries may be present in impotent males. The etiology of erectile dysfunction is multifactorial and may involve vascular disease, endocrine disorders, neurologic disease, prescription medications, psychological issues and/or trauma in any given patient. Vascular disease in patients with erectile dysfunction may be due to trauma, congenital anomalies, or atherosclerosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Distal aortography with iliofemoral run-off will be performed to evaluate disease in the common and internal iliac arteries.

    Measured: During Procedural Cath

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Selective angiography of the internal pudendal artery (and accessory pudendal artery if present) will be performed bilaterally.

    Measured: During Procedural Cath

  2. Intra-arterial nitroglycerin (or papaverine or tolazoline if nitroglycerin is contraindicated) will be used to facilitate angiographic visualization of the internal pudendal and penile arteries.

    Measured: During Procedural Cath

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Erectile Dysfunction, run by University of California, Davis.

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 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Distal aortography with iliofemoral run-off will be performed to evaluate disease in the common and internal iliac arteries. (time frame: During Procedural Cath). 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 31 Oct 2017.
