December 28, 2013 updated by: Takeda

Evaluation of Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients With Overactive Bladder Syndrome (OAB) Treated With Propiverine, and Its Efficacy and Tolerance in Daily Practice in Belgian General Practitioners and Urologists

The purposes of this study were to assess Quality of Life (QoL) and urination urge, incontinence, and micturition frequency including nocturia after 4 and 12 weeks treatment with propiverine.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called propiverine. Propiverine is being tested to evaluate Quality of Life (QoL) and improvement of OAB symptoms in people who take propiverine. The study will enroll approximately 1000 patients who the treating physician decided to treat with propiverine 15mg tablets or 30 mg regulated release capsules as part of their normal clinical practice. All participants will be asked to keep a voiding diary for 2 consecutive days and to complete a QoL questionnaire after 1st visit and before each subsequent visit. This multi-centre trial will be conducted in Belgium. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 12 weeks. Participants will make 3 visits to their healthcare provider.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Written informed consent. 2. At least 18 years of age. 3. Patients with complaints of Overactive Bladder Syndrome (OAB) without urge incontinence, OAB with urge incontinence, or with mixed urinary incontinence. 4.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in Quality of Life (QoL) as assessed by the King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ) at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
The King's Health Questionnaire is a condition-specific health-related QoL instrument for the assessment of patients with lower urinary tract conditions including overactive bladder. It is a self-administered questionnaire containing 21 questions scored in 9 domains (general health perception, incontinence impact, role limitations, physical limitations, social limitations, personal relationships, emotions, sleep or energy, and severity of urinary symptoms). All domains were assessed in a range: 0-100, where 0=best and 100=worst outcome. Lower scores indicates better QoL.
Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Change from Baseline in Urination Urge at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Each participant kept a voiding diary and recorded urinary urgency. The diary was kept for 2 consecutive days within 7 days of the Baseline visit, and 2 consecutive days just before the Week 4 and 12 visits. The average urination urge was then calculated.
Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Change from Baseline in Incontinence episodes at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Each patient kept a voiding diary and episodes of incontinence. The diary was kept for 2 consecutive days within 7 days of the Baseline visit, and 2 consecutive days just before the Week 4 and 12 visits. The average number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours was calculated.
Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Change from Baseline in Micturition Frequency including nocturia at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Each patient kept a voiding diary and recorded the number of micturitions. The diary was kept for 2 consecutive days within 7 days of the Baseline visit, and 2 consecutive days just before the Week 4 and 12 visits. The average number of micturitions and nocturia episodes per 24 hours was calculated.
Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in Urine Volume per Void at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Mean volume per void (or amount of urine per urination) over 24 hours is based on a 2-day diary maintained by the participant.
Baseline, Weeks 4 and 12
Patient and Investigator Assessment of Efficacy of Propiverine at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: Weeks 4 and 12
Evaluation of efficacy was assessed by participants and investigators on a 4 point scale. Participants and investigators reported efficacy as very good, good, sufficient, or insufficient.
Weeks 4 and 12
Patient and Investigator Assessment of Tolerability of Propiverine at Weeks 4 and 12
Time Frame: 12 Weeks
Evaluation of tolerability was assessed by participants and investigators on a 4 point scale. Participants and investigators reported tolerability as very good, good, sufficient, or insufficient.
12 Weeks
