What is being measured

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

  1. Incontinence Status as Assessed by Stamey Grade Score

    The Stamey grade classifies the severity stress incontinence and was calculated from the 4-day voiding diary using the four possible grades from 0-3. Grade 0: controlled urination, Grade 1: accidents with vigorous activity, for example, lifting weights, coughing, and sneezing, Grade 2: accidents with minimal activity, for example, walking and standing up, and Grade 3: accidents regardless of activity or position and that cannot be attributed to a specific activity. Higher the Stamey grade, the most severe leakage level was estimated. An average of 4 days for the final grade was recorded and rounded up, if necessary (for example, 2.5 was equal to Grade 3).

    Measured: Baseline and Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36

  2. Number of Participants With One Point Improvement in Stamey Grade Scores up to Month 12

    The Stamey grade classifies the severity stress incontinence and was calculated from the 4-day voiding diary using the four possible grades from 0-3. Grade 0: controlled urination, Grade 1: accidents with vigorous activity, for example, lifting weights, coughing, and sneezing, Grade 2: accidents with minimal activity, for example, walking and standing up, and Grade 3: accidents regardless of activity or position and that cannot be attributed to a specific activity. Higher the Stamey grade, the most severe leakage level was estimated. An average of 4 days for the final grade was recorded and rounded up, if necessary (for example, 2.5 was equal to Grade 3).

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 12

  3. Number of Participants Who Had at Least One Point Improvement in Stamey Grade Scores Compared to Baseline

    The Stamey grade classifies the severity stress incontinence and was calculated from the 4-day voiding diary using the four possible grades from 0-3. Grade 0: controlled urination, Grade 1: accidents with vigorous activity, for example, lifting weights, coughing, and sneezing, Grade 2: accidents with minimal activity, for example, walking and standing up, and Grade 3: accidents regardless of activity or position and that cannot be attributed to a specific activity. Higher the Stamey grade, the most severe leakage level was estimated. An average of 4 days for the final grade was recorded and rounded up, if necessary (for example, 2.5 was equal to Grade 3).

    Measured: Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36

  4. Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Stamey Grade Scores Over Time

    The Stamey grade classifies the severity stress incontinence and was calculated from the 4-day voiding diary using the four possible grades from 0-3. Grade 0: controlled urination, Grade 1: accidents with vigorous activity, for example, lifting weights, coughing, and sneezing, Grade 2: accidents with minimal activity, for example, walking and standing up, and Grade 3: accidents regardless of activity or position and that cannot be attributed to a specific activity. Higher the Stamey grade, the most severe leakage level was estimated. An average of 4 days for the final grade was recorded and rounded up, if necessary (for example, 2.5 was equal to Grade 3).

    Measured: Baseline up to Months 6 and 12

  5. Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 36

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Number of Participants Who Received Each of the Six Coaptite Injections

    Coaptite injection were given to any participant during the 36 months of evaluation.

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 36

  2. Time to Coaptite Retreatment

    Time to additional coaptite treatment or any other alternative treatment for stress urinary incontinence was recorded to assess the durability of effect.

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 36

  3. Number of Participants With Alternative Treatments for Incontinence

    Number of participants with alternative treatment such as kegel exercises, sling, sling/cystocele repair, surgery, permanent abdominal tube, intravesical botox, sling/graft, sling removal, estradiol vaginal cream, bladder neck suspension, tension free vaginal tape, biofeedback, polydimethylsiloxane injections, solifenacin orally, bladder specific control physical therapy, for stress urinary incontinence were assessed.

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 6 and Months 6 to 12, 12 to 18, 18 to 24, 24 to 30, 30 to 36

  4. Number of Participants With Urge Incontinence Medication (UIM) Status

    The use of urge incontinence medications was collected pre-treatment and post-treatment.

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 36

  5. Incontinence Quality of Life (iQoL) Scores

    The iQoL measured the effect of urinary incontinence on QoL. It was divided into 3 subscales: 1 (avoidance and limiting behaviour); 2 (psychosocial impact), and 3 (social embarrassment). The iQOL was comprised of 22 items, each with the response scale from 1 (extremely) to 5 (not at all). A mean score for each subscale was calculated (averaging the scores for the items in each subscale) as well as a total score for all 22 items (sum of all subscale scores). The scores were then transformed to a scale score ranging from 0 to 100 points, where higher scores indicated less impact of incontinence on QoL.

    Measured: Baseline and Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36

  6. Volume of Coaptite Injected Per Treatment

    Measured: Baseline, Baseline to Month 6 and Months 6 to 12, 12 to 18, 18 to 24, 24 to 30, 30 to 36

  7. Mean Number of Sites Injected by Coaptite

    Measured: Baseline, Baseline to Month 6 and Months 6 to 12, 12 to 18, 18 to 24, 24 to 30, 30 to 36

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coaptite® in people with Female Stress Urinary Incontinence Due to Intrinsic Sphincter Deficiency, run by Merz North America, Inc. at 20 sites in United States.

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 10 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 23 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jul 2019). 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?

Incontinence Status as Assessed by Stamey Grade Score (time frame: Baseline and Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36). The study lists 5 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 23 Jul 2019.
