Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

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
At 6 Months, the 95% Lower Confidence Limit of the Mean Percent Improvement in IPSS Over Baseline for the UroLift System Must be ≥ 25%.
Time Frame: 6 months
The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is a standardized 8 question (7 symptom questions + 1 quality of life question) written screening tool used to screen for, rapidly diagnose, track the symptoms of, and suggest management of the symptoms of the disease benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The symptoms must have been experienced in the last month and each answer is scored from 0 to 5 for a maximum score of 35 points.Those patients scoring 7 or below are generally considered mildly symptomatic, whereas 20 or above is considered severely symptomatic.
6 months

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.

Time Frame
Intent to Treat Population International Prostate Symptom Scores at Baseline and 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is a standardized 8 question (7 symptom questions + 1 quality of life question) written screening tool used to screen for, rapidly diagnose, track the symptoms of, and suggest management of the symptoms of the disease benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The symptoms must have been experienced in the last month and each answer is scored from 0 to 5 for a maximum score of 35 points.Those patients scoring 7 or below are generally considered mildly symptomatic, whereas 20 or above is considered severely symptomatic.

Present change in Intent to Treat population International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) from Baseline to 12 Month Follow-up
12 Months
Intent to Treat Population Quality of Life Scores at Baseline and 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
Quality of Life (QOL) score results from a disease-specific (BPH) quality of life question (bother score) scored on a scale from 0 to 6 points (delighted to terrible).
12 Months
Intent to Treat Population Quality of Life Score Perfect Change From Baseline to 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
Quality of Life (QOL) score results from a disease-specific (BPH) quality of life question (bother score) scored on a scale from 0 to 6 points (delighted to terrible).
12 Months
Intent to Treat Population BPHII Scores at Baseline and 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
BPHII (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index) is used to assess the impact of BPH symptoms on subject health and functioning. The BPHII is a self-administered questionnaire with 4 questions about urinary problems during the past month regarding physical discomfort, worry about health, how bothersome symptoms are, and whether the symptoms are interfering with doing usual activities. Scores for each question range from 0 to 4, with higher score indicating greater impact. Maximum score is 16.

12 Months
Intent to Treat Population Peak Flow Rate Scores at Baseline and 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
Peak or maximum flow rate [ml/sec] was collected using uroflowmetry, a standard diagnostic used to test to assess how well the urinary tract functions. A lower number indicates a reduced flow rate.

Intent to Treat Population Post Void Residual Measurement at Baseline and 12 Month Follow-up
Time Frame: 12 Months
Post Residual Void (PVR) is the amount of urine left in the bladder after using the restroom. PVR is determined using ultrasound or bladder scanner.
