Trial summary

The hypothesis is men with stress urinary incontinence, including those following radical retropubic prostatectomy and other prostate surgery, have preoperative urethral mobility as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that improves significantly following sling placement.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Study of Urethral Mobility in Male Stress Urinary Incontinence Pre- and Post- Placement of Transobturator Sling

The hypothesis is men with stress urinary incontinence, including those following radical retropubic prostatectomy and other prostate surgery, have preoperative urethral mobility as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that improves significantly following sling placement. The investigators theorize that the sling helps with primary hypermobility of this pathophysiologic cause of stress urinary incontinence.

Being tested

Receives: Other: Pre and Post Sling Pelvic MRI

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in urethral mobility

    Measure change in urethral mobility from baseline versus 2-5 months post-surgery versus no surgical intervention.

    Measured: Within 2-5 months after enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Male Stress Urinary Incontinence, run by Duke University at 1 site 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 10 inclusion and 17 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 16 Aug 2023. 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 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?

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?

Change in urethral mobility (time frame: Within 2-5 months 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 16 Aug 2023.
