About this study

Official title: An Exploratory, Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo + Sham Device Controlled, Study to Assess the Safety, Usability, and Initial Efficacy of the ViXe Combination for Intravesical Administration of XEOMIN® in the Treatment of Female Patients With Idiopathic Overactive Bladder (OAB)

The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to assess the safety, usability and initial efficacy of Xeomin and Vibe combination (ViXe) compared to placebo + sham in female subjects with idiopathic Overactive Bladder. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • The rate of device and drug related serious adverse events during treatment and throughout the follow up period • Investigator, subject and technician satisfaction from treatment, and • Assess the initial efficacy of the drug-device combination compared to placebo-sham combination. Participants will be treated a single time with the ViXe combination and will be followed up for a period of 12 weeks, during which they will visit the clinic after 2, 6 and 12 weeks. Participants will complete a 3-day voiding diary prior to the 6- and 12-week FU visit.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ViXe XombinationCombination product

    Combination of Xeomin and the ultrasound based delivery system (Vibe) for intravesical administration of the drug in a minimally invasive procedure

  • Placebo + ShamCombination product

    Placebo identical in package and appearance to Xeomin together with all steps of Vibe device preparation and activation, but without the actual operation of the ultrasound energy

Study groups in NCT06345677
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ViXe CombinationExperimentalThis arm includes a combination of the Xeomin medication, a generic of the Botulinium Toxin A drug that is not currently approved for this indication, and the Vibe medical device, an experimental device for the delivery of Botulinium Toxin to the bladder for overactive bladder
Receives: Combination Product: ViXe Xombination
Placebo + ShamPlacebo comparatorThe placebo that will be used in the study is identical in its physical properties to the investigational drug and will be used in the same manner as the active drug. Sham procedure will include all the steps for device preparation and activation, without the actual transmission of ultrasound eneregy to the participant.
Receives: Combination Product: Placebo + Sham

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse Events Rate

    Incidence of drug and device related adverse events from treatment to 12-weeks post treatment

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Usability and ease-of-use perception by investigator, subject and technician

    Satisfaction of investigator, participant and technicain from the treatment, as assessed by the sponsor designed usability questionnaire.

    Investigator's questionnaire consists of 43 questions on a scale of 1-7 each (total range 43-301). The higher the total score, the better the investigator satisfaction. Subject usability questionnaire consists of 11 questions on a scale of 0-10 (total range 0-110). Thr higher the score, the more statisfied the subject from the treatment. Technician's questionnaire consists of yes/no questions only.

    Measured: Procedure

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Daily Urgency Urinary Incontinence

    Mean change from baseline in the average number of daily Urgency Urinary Incontinence (UUI) Episodes at 6 and 12-weeks post treatment based on a 3-day voiding diary

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Total Daily Episodes

    Mean change from Baseline in the average number of daily voiding episodes at 6 and 12-weeks post treatment based on a 3-day voiding diary

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Urinary Urgency

    Mean Change from baseline in Urinary grade 3 or 4 Urgency Episodes at 6 and 12-weeks post treatment based on a 3-day voiding diary

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Voiding Leaks

    Mean change from baseline in Number of large leaks at 6 and 12-weeks post treatment based on a 3-day voiding diary

    Measured: 12 weeks

  5. Quality of Life Queationnsaire

    Change from baseline in OAB-q (Overactive Bladder - quality) total score at week 12. OAB-q is a two-domain questionnaire (symptom bother and health related quality of life), each of which is a 100-point scale. Higher scores reflect higher quality of life.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  6. Nocturia

    Mean change from baseline in the average number of daily Nocturia episodes at 6 and 12-weeks post treatment based on a 3-day voiding diary

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ViXe Xombination in people with Overactive Bladder, run by Vensica Therapeutics Ltd. at 8 sites in Portugal.

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

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Adverse Events Rate (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 9 Apr 2024.
