Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SolestaExperimentalOpen label. Solesta (Dextranomer in gel of stabilized non-animal hyaluronate) The study treatment consisted of 4 submucosal injections, 1 mL Solesta each, in the proximal part of the high pressure zone in the anal canal. Re-treatment is allowed one month after initial treatment if the subject is still incontinent.
Receives: Device: Solesta (Dextranomer in gel of stabilized non-animal hyaluronate)

What is being measured

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

  1. Responder Rate in Number of Fecal Incontinence Episodes

    Responder rate in number of fecal incontinence episodes change from baseline at 12 month.

    Defined as responders at 12 month after treatment. A responder was defined as 50% or more reduction in the number of fecal incontinence episodes (28-day diary data)of solid or loose stool, compared to baseline.

    Measured: 12 months after last treatment compared to baseline

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Fecal Incontinence Episodes.

    Number of fecal incontinence episodes, change from baseline (change in patient diary data at 12 month).

    Measured: at 12 month - change from baseline

  2. Fecal Incontinence Severity Using the Cleveland Clinic Florida Incontinence Score

    Cleveland Clinic Florida Incontinence Score (CCFIS) is a composite score of incontinence severity that measures the frequencies of gas leakage, leakage of solid or loose stool, use of protective pads and lifestyle alterations. The score ranges from 0 (representing complete continence)to 20 (representing complete incontinence).

    Change from baseline.

    Measured: 12 month - change from baseline

  3. Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQL)

    Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life is a disease specific questionnaire composed of a total of 29 questions questions divided into four domains: Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior, Depression/Self perception, and Embarrassment. The FIQL mean score ranges from 1 to 4 for the Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior and Embarrassment domains, and from 1 to 4.429 for Depression/Self-Perception domain. Mean score were calculated for each of the four domains. The more the subject is affected by fecal incontinence the lower value. Change from baseline.

    Measured: At 12 month - change from baseline

  4. Number of Incontinence-free Days

    Number of incontinence-free days, change from baseline (change in patient diary data at 12 month).

    Measured: At 12 month- change from baseline
