Trial Outcomes & Findings for Comparative Urine Proteomic Studies of Overactive Bladder in Humans (NCT NCT01367886)

NCT ID: NCT01367886

Last Updated: 2015-02-27

Results Overview

Overactive bladder subjects filled out a 3-day bladder diary before starting Fesoterodine and another 3-day bladder diary at the end of taking 6 weeks of Fesoterodine. The bladder diary was used to assess urinary frequency. The average number of urinations (frequency) per day over a period of 3 days before the start of medication and at the end of 6 weeks of medication were compared for each subject and then as a group.

Participant Flow

Subjects with overactive bladder were recruited from principal investigator's clinic practice.

Overactive bladder subjects completed a 3-day bladder diary and the Overactive Bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) prior to starting Toviaz (Fesoterodine) 4 mg daily. Another 3-day bladder diary and Overactive Bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) was completed by each subject at the end of a 6-week treatment with Toviaz. No washout period.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Outcome measure was assesses at baseline and at the end of the 6-week treatment period.

The Urinary Sensation Scale found in the bladder diary given to subjects was used to assess urinary urgency. The Urinary Sensation Scale was filled out by the subject for 3 days before starting Fesoterodine and filled out again for 3 days at the end of taking 6 weeks of Fesoterodine. The scale ranges from 1 (no feeling of urgency), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), 4 (severe) to 5 (unable to hold; leak urine). The urgency scale with the most check marks per day over a period of 3 days before start of medication was averaged for each subject. The urgency scale with the most check marks per day over a period of 3 days at the end of taking 6 weeks of medication was averaged for each subject. Then, the average before start of medication for all subjects and the average at the end of taking 6 weeks of medication for all subjects were compared.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Outcome measure was assessed at baseline and after the 6 week visit.

Overactive Bladder subjects answered the Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-q) before starting Fesoterodine and at the end of taking 6 weeks of Fesoterodine. The OAB-q consists of 8 questions asking how bothered subject was in the past 4 weeks. Questions # 1 (Frequent urination during the daytime hours?); #5 (Nighttime urination?) and #6 (Waking up at night because you have to urinate?) are asking about frequency. Choices of answers are: 1 (Not at all); 2 (A little bit); 3 (Somewhat); 4 (Quite a bit); 5 (A great deal) 6 (A very great deal). Multiple responses to the questionnaire were averaged for each participant at baseline and at 6 weeks and then all participants' answers were totaled and averaged at baseline and at 6 weeks.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Outcome measures were assessed at baseline and after the 6 week visit.

Overactive bladder subjects answered the Overactive Bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) before starting Fesoterodine and at the end of taking 6 weeks of Fesoterodine. The OAB-q consists of 8 questions asking how bothered subject was in the past 4 weeks. Questions #2 (An uncomfortable urge to urinate?); #3 (A sudden urge to urinate with little or no warning?); #4 (Accidental loss of small amounts of urine?); #7 (An uncontrollable urge to urinate?); #8 (Urine loss associated with a strong desire to urinate?) are asking about urgency. Choices for answers are: 1 (Not at all); 2 (A little bit); 3 (Somewhat); 4 (Quite a bit); 5 (A great deal); 6 (A very great deal). Multiple responses to the questionnaire was averaged per participant at baseline and at 6 weeks and then all participants answers were totaled and then averaged at baseline and at 6 weeks.
