Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Primary Objective:

* To assess the sexual function improvement from baseline to the end of treatment (Week 24 or premature withdrawal (PW)) with XATRAL 10mg OD.

Secondary Objective:

* To evaluate the association between Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) severity and sexual disorders,
* To compare the improvement in sexual function, urinary symptoms and Quality of Life among the different regions,
* To correlate MSHQ (Male Sexual Health Questionnaire) and IIEF-5 (the 5-Item version of the International Index of Erectile Function),
* To assess the onset of action of XATRAL 10mg OD,
* To assess the peak flow rate improvement (Qmax),
* To assess the safety and the tolerability of XATRAL 10mg OD.
