Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: WITHDRAWN
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL

Brief Summary

The ROBUST IV study is designed to collect and better understand "real-world" outcomes for men undergoing urethral dilation using the Optilume Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) for treatment of urethral stricture.

Conditions

Urethral Stricture; Urethral Stricture, Anterior; Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms; Anterior Urethral Stricture

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Optilume DCB

Optilume Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) treatment for the treatment of urethral stricture as approved for use in Canada

Group Type: OTHER

Optilume Drug Coated Balloon

Intervention Type: DEVICE

The Optilume Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) is a guidewire compatible catheter with a tapered atraumatic tip. The distal end of the catheter has an inflatable balloon coated with a proprietary coating containing the drug paclitaxel that facilitates the drug's transfer to the urethral wall upon inflation.

17. Diagnosed with chronic renal failure, at the discretion of the physician

18. A dependence on Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) in the urinary system

19. Presence of a penile implant, artificial urinary sphincter, or stent(s) in the urethra or prostate

20. Known neurogenic bladder, sphincter abnormalities, or poor detrusor muscle function

21. Previous hypospadias repair

22. Diagnosis within the last 5 years of carcinoma of the bladder or prostate or suspicion of prostate cancer (e.g. abnormal DRE or high PSA) at the discretion of the physician

23. Any cognitive or psychiatric condition that interferes with or precludes direct and accurate communication with the study investigator regarding the study or affect the ability to complete the study quality of life questionnaires

24. Unwilling to use protected sex for ≥30 days post treatment

25. Unwilling to abstain or use protected sex for 90 days post treatment if sexual partner is of child bearing potential.

26. Inability to provide legally effective Informed Consent Form (ICF) and/or comply with all the required follow-up requirements

27. Active infection in the urinary system

28. History of diabetes not controlled with a hemoglobin A1-C >7.0%

29. Diagnosed or suspected primary neurologic conditions such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's disease or other neurological diseases known to affect bladder function, sphincter function or poor detrusor muscle function.

30. Visible hematuria with subject urine sample without known contributing factor
