What is being measured

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

  1. Change in International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS-(S)) from baseline to the end of treatment

    Measured: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change in mean number of urgency episode per 24 hours from baseline to the end of treatment

    Measured: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

  2. Change in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours from baseline to the end of treatment

    Measured: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

  3. Change in Quality of life index (I-PSS-(L)) from baseline to the end of treatment

    Measured: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

  4. Change in maximum flow rate (Qmax) and voided volume determined by uroflowmetry from baseline to the end of treatment

    Measured: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)

  5. Safety as assessed by adverse events

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  6. Safety as assessed by postvoid residual volume (PVR)

    Measured by bladder scan

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  7. Safety as assessed by vital signs

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

  8. Safety as assessed by laboratory parameters

    Measured: Up to 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tamsulosin and Solifenacin in people with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Overactive Bladder, run by Astellas Pharma Taiwan, Inc. at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 15 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 22 Mar 2016. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Change in International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS-(S)) from baseline to the end of treatment (time frame: Baseline and end of treatment (up to 12 weeks)). 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 22 Mar 2016.
