About this study

Official title: Intravesical Hyaluronic Acid Sodium Salt and Hydeal-D for Relief of Storage Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) After Trans-urethral Resection of Bladder Tumor (TURBT) for Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC). Monocentric, Randomized, Controlled Investigation.

This will be an open-label, prospective, single-centre, randomised, controlled, parallel-group medical device investigation. The investigational plan will include four visits in total at the investigational site. One visit (Visit 2) will consist in the hospitalisation period and will last 3/4 days. Patients will be admitted to hospital in the day preceding the TURBT (Day -1; in case the TURBT is programmed in the morning) or in the day of the TURBT (Day 0; in case the TURBT is programmed in the afternoon) and will stay in the hospital for 3/4 days after the intervention (performed on Day 0). Patients will then be discharged, if considered as appropriate based on Investigator's judgment, following the removal of the catheter and the first clear urination. Patients will be asked to remain in the same geographic area of the investigational site up to the end of study visit.

Read the detailed description

The following visits/activities will be performed:

  • Visit 1: the screening visit will be performed between 60 and 14 days before the TURBT (Day -60/-14);
  • Visit 2 (hospitalisation): patients will be admitted to hospital in the day preceding the TURBT or in the day of the TURBT and will be randomised to the assigned treatment group. TURBT will be performed on Day 0. The first treatment with the investigational device will be performed within 6 hours from the end of TURBT. The catheter will be removed at Day 2 ± 1 if considered as appropriate based on Investigator's judgment, following the first clear urination). The second treatment with the investigational device will be performed just before the removal of the catheter and the discharge from hospital.
  • Visit 3: a follow-up visit will be performed at Day 5 ± 1 (i.e. 3 days after catheter removal);
  • Visit 4: the end of study visit will be performed at Day 25 ± 4.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of severity rate of storage symptoms (frequency, urgency, nocturia) compared to control group

    Severity of storage symptoms will be evaluated through a patient's bladder diary

    Measured: 3 days after catheter removal

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Evaluation of severity rate of storage symptoms (frequency, urgency, nocturia) compared to control group

    Severity of storage symptoms will be evaluated through patient's bladder diary

    Measured: 25 days

  2. Evaluation of changes from baseline in severity of urinary symptoms compared to control group

    Change from baseline (Day -1) in severity of urinary symptoms will be evaluated by IPSS. Scores obtained in the group of patients treated with Hydeal Cyst® will be compared with scores obtained in the control group. Storage and voiding symptoms will be also estimated in both arms by IPSS-s and IPSS-v subscores.The answers are assigned points from 0 to 5. The total score can therefore range from 0 to 35 (asymptomatic to very symptomatic) and the overall intensity of urinary symptoms is categorised in mild (score 1-7), moderate (score 8-19) and severe (score 20-35).

    Measured: 25 days

  3. Evaluation of changes from baseline in severity rate of urinary symptoms compared to control group

    Change from baseline in severity and frequency of urinary symptoms, as evaluated by ICIQ-MLUTS in males and ICIQ-FLUTS in females. Scores obtained in the group of patients treated with Hydeal Cyst® will be compared with scores obtained in the control group.The ICIQ is a questionnaire for evaluating male lower urinary tract symptoms and impact on quality of life (QoL) .All items are evaluated using a score rated 0-4 for frequency and a score 0-10 for bothering, with higher scores corresponding to higher severity of symptoms.

    Measured: 25 days

  4. Evaluation of changes from baseline in severity of pelvic pain compared to control group

    Change from baseline in severity of pelvic pain, as evaluated by means of a 0-100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS). Scores in the group of patients treated with Hydeal Cyst® will be compared with scores obtained in the control group.

    Measured: 25 days

  5. Duration of catheter implant as time of permanence of cathether implanted compared to control group

    The time (hours) of permanence of catheter implanted will be counted for every patient and will be codified in classes (< 47 hours, 48 ± 1 hours, > 49 hours). The frequencies in the group of patients treated with Hydeal Cyst® will be calculated and compared with those of the control group. The analysis of the duration of catheter implant will be performed by means of a Chi-square test or a Fisher's Exact test on the analysis of classes (< 47 hours, 48 ± 1 hours, > 49 hours).

    Measured: 49 hours

  6. Rescue medication consumption after surgery compared to control group

    The proportion of users and the amount of used rescue medication in the treated-group of patients with Hydeal Cyst® will be compared with those of the control group.

    Measured: 25 days

  7. Evaluation of quality of life using the EuroQoL-5D compared to control group

    Quality of life will be evaluated using the EQ-5D-5L (QoL), as mean scores of patients treated with Hydeal Cyst® compared with scores of control group.The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension. The digits for the five dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patient's health state.

    Measured: 25 days

  8. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events compared to the control group

    Adverse Events (AEs) encountered will be reported and documented in the AE page of the e-CRF, whether considered to be related to the investigational device or not. If the Adverse Event is serious, the Serious Adverse Event Form must also be completed.

    Measured: 25 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hyaluronic Acid (HA) sodium salt and Hydeal-D in people with Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC), run by Fidia Farmaceutici s.p.a. at 1 site in Italy.

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 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Oct 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 Italy. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Evaluation of severity rate of storage symptoms (frequency, urgency, nocturia) compared to control group (time frame: 3 days after catheter removal). 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 5 Oct 2023.
