Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
Participants who meet the entry IPSS inclusion criteria at Week 0 will be randomized and enroll in the double-blind treatment period. Participants will be randomized to one of three treatment arms and will receive two 6-month courses of study drug administered on Days 0 and 14 of each 6-month course. Treatment arms include: ozarelix 30mg + 15mg, ozarelix 15mg + 15mg or placebo + placebo. Safety and efficacy assessments will be performed at defined intervals throughout the study. At Week 52 all participants on study will be eligible to receive ozarelix for two additional courses in the open-label treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change From Baseline International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Score at Week 14
Time Frame: Week 14
|
IPSS is a validated self-administered index for grading benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)-related signs and symptoms.
It consists of a set of seven questions.
A total score of 1-7 indicates mild disease, 8-19 moderate disease and 20-35 severe disease.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change From Baseline IPSS (Including Sub-scores) at Week 52
Time Frame: Week 52
|
The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) consists of 7 questions concerning urinary symptoms and 1 question concerning quality of life (QoL) with total score and subscores (voiding, storage and QoL). 1) Voiding- The subscale voiding score is the sum of the responses to 4 voiding symptoms questions (incomplete emptying, intermittency, weak stream, and straining).
2) Storage- The subscale storage score is the sum of the responses to 3 storage symptoms questions (frequency, urgency, and nocturia).
Voiding and Storage: the lowest and highest possible scores range from 0 to 15 (mildly symptomatic to severely symptomatic).
Voiding and Storage: each question is assigned points from 0 to 5 indicating increasing severity of the particular symptom.
And 3) QoL assessment was a single question asking the participant how he would feel about tolerating his current level of symptoms for the rest of his life.
The lowest and highest possible score ranges from 0 to 6 (very pleased to terrible).
|
Week 52
|
Change From Baseline Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index (BPHII) Score at Week 14 and Week 52
Time Frame: Weeks 14 and 52
|
BPH Impact Index (BII) is used to assess the impact of BPH on various aspects of health.
This 4 question self administered index uses a scoring range from 0 (best) to 13 (worst).
|
Weeks 14 and 52
|
Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) Global Assessment Question (LUTS-GAQ) Response at Week 52
Time Frame: Week 52
|
The self administered LUTS GAQ is a "yes" or "no" response to a question asking whether overall improvement in LUTS will be observed during the treatment period.
|
Week 52
|
Change From Baseline Maximum Urine Flow (Qmax) at Week 14 and Week 52
Time Frame: Week 14 and Week 52
|
Qmax was measured by free flow uroflowmetry.
Qmax is defined as the peak urine flow rate (measured in milliliter (mL)/second using a standard calibrated flowmeter).
For a Qmax to be considered valid, the voided volume had to be at least 125 mL.
The uroflowmeter is to be calibrated weekly.
|
Week 14 and Week 52
|
Change From Baseline International Index of Erectile Function-15 (IIEF-EF) Score at Week 14 and Week 52
Time Frame: Week 14 and Week 52
|
IIEF-EF is defined as the sum of the scores for Questions 1-5 and 15 of the IIEF questionnaire.
This recall instrument is self-administered by the participant.
Individual questions are graded from 1 to 5 with a maximum total score of 30.
Lower IIEFEF scores represent diminished erectile function.
Men with a score of ≥ 26 are interpreted as having normal erectile function.
|
Week 14 and Week 52
|
Change From Baseline International Prostate Symptom Score - Quality of Life (IPSS-QOL) at Week 14 and Week 52
Time Frame: Week 14 and Week 52
|
IPSS QOL is a disease-specific quality of life question, referred to as IPSS Question 8. Participants with an IPSS QOL of <3 at screening will be excluded from this study.
The rating is as follows: 0=delighted, 1=pleased, 2=mostly satisfied, 3=mixed, 4=mostly dissatisfied, 5=unhappy, 6=terrible.
