An Investigation With an Intra-vaginal Device for Stress Urinary Incontinence

April 3, 2018 updated by: Invent Medic Sweden AB

An Open Randomized Controlled Multicenter Clinical Investigation With an Intra-vaginal Device for Stress Urinary Incontinence in Comparison to Using Standard of Care

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, two-armed multi-center pre-market trial. Nighty-six (96) subjects will be recruited at sites in Sweden. Patients with diagnosed stress urinary incontinence (SUI), will be considered as potential study participants. After written informed consent has been acquired, a medical and surgical history, a physical examination (including pelvic examination), and a confirmation of the diagnosis of SUI will be performed, followed by a confirmation of the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The study subjects fulfilling all the eligibility criteria will thereafter be randomized 3:1 into either the TVS group or the standard of care (SoC) group.

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
97

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

  13. The patient is participating in another study on SUI
  14. Any other condition that as judged by the investigator may make follow-up or investigations inappropriate

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
EXPERIMENTAL: Trans Vagina Support
Tension Free Vaginal Support (TVS):The subjects in the TVS Group used pads during week 1 (Baseline), fitted, trained and selected device size week 2 and used the selected device size during week 3 (treatment week).
Device: TVS
Efficacy of a novel intra-vaginal device for temporary reduction of urine leakage in women suffering from stress urinary incontinence and to evaluate the safety and ease of use.
NO_INTERVENTION: Standard Care
Standard of care (SoC): The subjects in the SoC group continued with conventional treatment i.e. using pads during week 1, 2 and 3. They were offered to use the TVS device for two weeks after completion of week 3.

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
Absolute reduction in leakage as measured by pad weight in gram
Time Frame: 3 weeks
The primary endpoint will be the absolute reduction in pad weight from the run-in week (week 1) compared with the final week (week 3). The weight of the pad is defined as the mean weight over the entire week of measurement.
3 weeks

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
Success rate in % in reducing urinary leakage measured by pad weight
Time Frame: 3 weeks
Overall success rate, defined as at least 70% reduction in pad weight measured in gram from run-in to the final week (week 3).
3 weeks
Reduction of urinary leakage episodes measured by subjective observations
Time Frame: 3 weeks
Reduction of SUI episodes from the run-in week compared to the final week (week 3) by entry of subjective observations in study diary.

Time Frame: 3 weeks
General impact on quality of life parameters using European Quality of Life - 5 dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) comparing week 1 and week 3.
3 weeks
Impact on disease specific qulity of life parameters
Time Frame: 3 weeks
Disease specific Impact of Quality of life parameters, measured by the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7), Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) comparing week 1 and week.

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
