Extension Study of GI198745 to Treat Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

A Long-term Extension Study of GI198745 in Subjects With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The primary objective is to assess the safety of GI198745 0.05mg, 0.5mg, 2.5mg once daily for 52 weeks.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Prostatic Hyperplasia; Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: GI198745 0.05mg; Drug: GI198745 0.5mg; Drug: GI198745 2.5mg

Detailed Description

Upon completion of 24 weeks of GI198745 0.05 mg, 0.5 mg, 2.5 mg, or placebo therapy in study ARI20005, subjects are enrolled into an extension phase and are continued on the same therapy once daily for up to further 28 weeks, followed by up to 16 weeks of post-dosing assessments.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

• Has been receiving the investigational product for at least 20 weeks in the preceding dose finding study and the investigator or subinvestigator has confirmed the tolerability and has judged as appropriate to participate continuously in further 28 weeks treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Is withdrawn from the dose finding study.
• Has less than 75% compliance with the investigational product in the dose finding study at given the informed consent for the long-term extension study.
• Has a prostate cancer at giving informed consent for participating in the long-term extension study; or is suspected to have a prostate cancer in palpation, ultrasound imaging, biopsy, etc. at giving informed consent for participating in the long-term extension study.
