About this study

Official title: Exploring Predictors of Symptoms Relapse After Discontinuation of Successful Treatment With a Tolterodine Prolonged Release Capsules (4 mg, Once Daily) in Overactive Bladder Patients: A Prospective Randomized Multicenter Trial

This is a Phase IV, prospective, randomized, multi-center study to find risk factors of OAB symptoms relapse in patients who showed therapeutic benefits after 1, 3, or 6 months of treatment with Tolterodine SR and who then discontinued these antimuscarinics for 3 month.

Patients who have OAB symptoms for 6 or more than 6 months and who show successful treatment response to 1 month of treatment with Tolterodine SR 4mg will be enrolled and randomized to 1, 3 or 6 months of treatment group. After completion of the treatment, subjects will be evaluated for changes in OAB symptoms and retreatment rate will be assessed.

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective:

  • To investigate the risk factors of OAB symptom relapse and retreatment in patients who showed therapeutic benefits after 1, 3 or 6 months of treatment with Tolterodine SR and who then discontinued these antimuscarinics for 3 month.

Secondary Objective:

  • To investigate the change of the patient perception and quality of life after antimuscarinic discontinuation
  • To find the rate of patients who have OAB symptom relapse.
  • To find the risk factors of patients who want retreatment.
  • To find the rate of patients who want retreatment.
Being tested
Tolterodine, Tolterodine 6

What is being measured

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

  1. Risk factors and relapse rate of the OAB symptoms after drug discontinuation

    Measured: from baseline (treatment completion) to 1, 3 month after drug discontinuation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Micturition diary efficacy parameters

    Measured: from baseline (treatment completion) to 1, 3 month after drug discontinuation

  2. Quality of life parameters: change in total score and subscale scores of OAB-questionnaire

    Measured: from baseline (treatment completion) to 1, 3 month after drug discontinuation

  3. Patient perceptions: change in patient perception of urgency, change in patient perception of bladder condition and percentage of patients who wants retreatment

    Measured: from baseline (treatment completion) to 1, 3 month after drug discontinuation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tolterodine and Tolterodine 6 in people with Overactive Bladder, run by KYU-SUNG LEE at 4 sites 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 6 inclusion and 22 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 2 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Risk factors and relapse rate of the OAB symptoms after drug discontinuation (time frame: from baseline (treatment completion) to 1, 3 month after drug discontinuation). 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 2 Dec 2019.
