  • Have bladder outlet obstruction as defined by a Peak Urine Flow Rate (Qmax) of greater than or equal to 4 to less than or equal to 15 milliliter (mL)/second (sec) (from a prevoid total bladder volume as assessed by ultrasound of greater than or equal to 150 to less than or equal to 550 mL and a minimum voided volume of 125 mL) at 2nd screening.
  • Make at least 4 sexual intercourse attempts during the 4-weeks after 2nd screening as recorded in the Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) diary.
  • Are sexually active with an adult female partner, and expect to remain sexually active with the same adult female partner for the duration of the study.
  • Agree not to use any other approved or experimental BPH, overactive bladder (OAB), or ED treatments as indicated in the protocol at any time during the study.
  • Have not taken treatments indicated in the protocol prior to the 2nd screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Current treatment with nitrates.
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) greater than 10.0 nanogram (ng)/mL at 1st screening.
  • PSA greater than or equal to 4.0 to less than or equal to 10.0 ng/mL at 1st screening if prostate malignancy has not been ruled out to the satisfaction of a urologist.
  • Clinical evidence of prostate cancer.
  • Bladder postvoid residual volume (PVR) greater than or equal to 300 mL by ultrasound determination at 1st screening.
  • History or clinical evidence of certain pelvic, bladder, urinary tract, or urinary retention conditions described in the protocol.
  • Lower urinary tract instrumentation (including prostate biopsy) within 30 days of 1st screening.
  • Clinical evidence of severe hepatic impairment at 1st screening.
  • Current neurologic disease or condition associated with neurogenic bladder (for example, Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis).
  • History of significant renal insufficiency as defined by the protocol.
  • History of ED caused by other primary sexual disorders including premature ejaculation or ED caused by untreated endocrine disease.
  • Presence of penile deformity judged by the investigator to be clinically significant.
  • History of certain cardiac or cardiovascular conditions described in the protocol.
  • History of resuscitated cardiac arrest.
  • Current treatment with certain medications described in the protocol.
  • Scheduled or planned surgery (or any procedure requiring general, spinal, or epidural anesthesia) during the course of the study.

  • Prior treatment with phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors judged by the investigator to be ineffective. However, if the investigator judges that a subject's lack of response to as-needed PDE5 inhibitors is the result of inadequate coordination between dosing and sexual activity with a treatment, the subject may be enrolled.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at Week 12 Endpoint (5 mg)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 weeks
The total IPSS is obtained by combining the scores of the responses to component questions 1 through 7. Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model includes terms for treatment group, region, baseline covariate, baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.
Baseline, 12 weeks
Change From Baseline in International Index of Erectile Function - Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) Domain Score at Week 12 Endpoint (5 mg)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 weeks
Self-reported erectile function over the past 4 weeks. Questions 1-5 were scored from 0-5, and Question 15 from 1 to 5. Erectile Function Domain scores range from 1 to 30; lower numerical scores represent greater severity of erectile dysfunction. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model includes terms for treatment group, region, baseline covariate, baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.
Baseline, 12 weeks
Change From Baseline in Total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at Week 12 Endpoint (2.5 mg)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model includes terms for treatment group, region, baseline covariate, baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.
Baseline, 12 weeks
Change From Baseline in International Index of Erectile Function - Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) Domain Score at Week 12 Endpoint (2.5 mg)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 weeks
Self-reported erectile function over the past 4 weeks. Questions 1-5 were scored from 0-5, and Question 15 from 1 to 5. Erectile Function Domain scores range from 1 to 30; lower numerical scores represent greater severity of erectile dysfunction.

Baseline, 12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Yes Responses to Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) Diary Question 3 at Week 12 Endpoint (5 mg)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 weeks
Assessed as the mean change from baseline in the percentage of Yes responses to the SEP diary Question 3, "Did your erection last long enough for you to have successful intercourse?" Data are presented as the mean percentage of Yes responses per the number of sexual attempts for a participant during a study period. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).
