Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in the Total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
IPSS is a disease-specific outcome measure based on the American Urological Association Symptom Index. The questionnaire consisted of seven items. The patient evaluated their urinary symptoms (incomplete emptying, frequency, hesitancy, urgency, weak stream, straining, and nocturia) during the previous 4 weeks. The total symptom score ranged from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (most severe symptoms). A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline, Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in the Total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6, Week 24
IPSS is a disease-specific outcome measure based on the American Urological Association Symptom Index. The questionnaire consisted of seven items. The patient evaluated their urinary symptoms (incomplete emptying, frequency, hesitancy, urgency, weak stream, straining, and nocturia) during the previous 4 weeks. The total symptom score ranged from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (most severe symptoms). A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline, Week 6, Week 24
Change From Baseline in Peak Urine Flow Rate
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 6, 12 and 24
Urinary flow was determined by uroflowmetry measured in milliliters/second (mL/sec). An increase from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline, Weeks 6, 12 and 24
Duration of Effect
Time Frame: 24 Weeks
Duration of effect was calculated from the time of the first follow-up visit with a ≥ 4-point reduction from Baseline in IPSS to the next visit when the IPSS change from Baseline was < 4-points.
24 Weeks
