About this study

Official title: Comparison of Transurethral Split of the Prostate Versus Transurethral Resection of the Prostate for Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in a Small Prostate Volume: A Prospective Controlled Study

Comparison of transurethral split of the prostate versus transurethral resection of the prostate for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia in a small prostate volume: A prospective controlled study

Read the detailed description

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) was considered as the golden standard to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) for decades. However, TURP was associated with low efficiency to alleviate the lower urinary tract symptoms and a significantly higher risk of bladder neck contracture (BNC) for patients with small-volume BPH. We aimed to compare the therapeutic effect of transurethral split of the prostate (TUSP) with TURP for patients with small-volume BPH (<30 ml).

In this study, some selected small-volume BPH patients were randomly divided into two groups (TUSP and TURP group). The patient's baseline characteristics and perioperative outcomes were recorded. The follow-up was made at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after surgical treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. international prostate symptoms score(IPSS)

    Measuring the International Prostate Symptoms Score by a questionnaire (which minimum value is zero and the maximum value is 35; higher scores mean a worse outcome)

    Measured: within 24 months after surgery

  2. maximum urinary flow rate(Qmax)

    Measuring the maximum urinary flow rate by a urodynamic study

    Measured: within 24 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TUSP and TURP in people with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jiaming Wen, Dr. (+86-571-87783550, wenjiaming@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

international prostate symptoms score(IPSS) (time frame: within 24 months after surgery). The study lists 2 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 3 Jun 2021.
