Brief Summary

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

This study focuses on the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia which causes lower urinary tract symptoms.

The purpose of the research project is to evaluate PAE in terms of both medical and health economic outcomes. To evaluate whether there are any differences in effect (IPSS), complications, costs and perceived quality of life compared with TUR-P.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PAE

Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Prostate Artery Embolization

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is performed by experienced interventional radiologists. The method involves catheterization of the prostate vessels superselectively with two to three French microcatheters. PAE is performed with microspheres of 250 to 400 µm in size.

TURP

Transurethral Prostate Resection (TURP)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Transurethral Prostate Resection (TURP)

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Under general/regional anesthesia, a resectoscope is inserted into the urethra that carries an electric metal loop (monopolar or bipolar diathermy) that is used to cut and extract the prostate tissue.

Prostate Artery Embolization

Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is performed by experienced interventional radiologists. The method involves catheterization of the prostate vessels superselectively with two to three French microcatheters. PAE is performed with microspheres of 250 to 400 µm in size.
