About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Udenafil in Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction After Radical Resection for Sigmoid Colon and Rectal Cancer : a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Udenafil (Zydena®, Dong-A Pharmaceutical co., Ltd, Seoul, Korea) in treatment of erectile dysfunction after radical resection for sigmoid colon and rectal cancer. In this study, the efficacy of Udenafil will be evaluated in treatment for patient with chronic erectile dysfunction, which developed after radical resection for sigmoid and rectal cancer and continues 12 months after the surgery.

Read the detailed description

Post-pelvic surgery erectile dysfunction is of much interest to those performing sigmoid colon and rectal cancer surgery and their patients. Erectile dysfunction has been recognized to develop from damage to pelvic parasympathetic nerve, which are especially vulnerable during anterior rectal dissection. There may be also a contribution of psychological factors from the presence of stoma and fear of recurrent cancer. Recently, several studies reported that erectile dysfunction after rectal excision for rectal cancer was completely reversed or satisfactorily improved using oral erectile dysfunction drugs. Udenafil is a new phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitor for erectile dysfunction. Prior studies have also demonstrated a selectivity profile for udenafil that is similar to Sildenafil (viagra®) and tadalafil (Cialis®). But unlike tadalafil (Cialis®), it does not significantly inhibit the PDE11 isozyme and not produce significant myalgia. back pain, or leg pain.

This prospective, randomized study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of Udenafil treatment in treatment of erectile dysfunction after radical resection for sigmoid colon and rectal cancer. In order to conduct this study, enrolled patients will be randomly attributed to Udenafil group or placebo group.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Udenafil in people with Erectile Dysfunction and Sigmoid Colon Cancer, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 5 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

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?

Improvement of erectile function using IIEF-5 (International Index of Erectile Function-5), SEP Q2, Q3 (Sexual Encounter Profile Q2,Q3), and GEQ (Global efficacy Question) (time frame: at 4 weeks after enrollment). 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 5 Sep 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
