Comparison of Combination Therapy vs Single Agent Therapy for Treatment of Urge Incontinence. (APP)
Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial of Extended Release Oxybutynin Versus Placebo in Women Receiving Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation for Treatment of Urgency Urinary Incontinence
This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial of posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) plus extended release oxybutynin versus PTNS alone (placebo pills) in women undergoing treatment of urgency urinary incontinence (UUI).
The investigators hypothesize that combination therapy with PTNS and anticholinergic medication will result in a significant incremental improvement in UUI symptoms over that achieved with PTNS alone. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that the addition of anticholinergics to PTNS will result in a greater improvement in patients' perception of treatment response, symptom distress, and quality of life than PTNS alone.
Specific Aim 1: To compare the change, from baseline, in mean number of UUI episodes per day using a 3-day bladder diary between PTNS plus anticholinergic medication versus PTNS plus placebo in women undergoing treatment for UUI.
Specific Aim 2: To compare the change, from baseline, in a 24hr pad weight between PTNS plus anticholinergic medication versus PTNS plus placebo.
Specific Aim 3: To compare subjective treatment response, symptoms distress, and quality of life between PTNS plus anticholinergic medication versus PTNS plus placebo utilizing the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) and the Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short Form (OABq-SF).
An interim analysis will be conducted by an independent entity after 50 participants have completed the study protocol. A Data Safety Monitoring Board is not utilized because the study utilizes FDA approved treatments for urgency urinary incontinence.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Median Number of UUI Episodes Per Day
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 weeks
|
To compare the change, from baseline, in median number of UUI episodes per day using a 3-day bladder diary between PTNS plus anticholinergic medication versus PTNS plus placebo in women undergoing treatment for UUI.
UUI change score will be calculated [post-treatment UUI/day minus pre-treatment UUI/day].
|
Baseline, 6 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in 24hr Pad Weight
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 weeks
|
To compare the change, from baseline, in 24h pad weight between PTNS plus anticholinergic medication versus PTNS plus placebo.
Change in median 24h pad weight from baseline to 6 weeks was compared between the 2 groups using Wilcoxon Rank Sum test.

Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 weeks
|
The Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) is a transition scale that is a single question asking the patient to rate their urinary tract condition now, as compared with how it was prior to before beginning treatment on a scale from 1 (Very much better to) 7 (Very much worse).
|
Baseline, 6 weeks
|
Change in the Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short Form (OABq-SF) Part 1
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 weeks
|
Part 1 of the OABq-SF questionnaire asks about the relative bother a patient experiences with regard to overactive bladder symptoms over the previous 4 weeks.
This part of the questionnaire has 6 questions, with scores ranging from 6 (least amount of bother) to 36 (most amount of bother).
For this secondary outcome, we are measuring the change in score on the OABq-SF Part 1 from baseline to 6 weeks.
Median change in scores were compared between the 2 groups using Wilcoxon Rank Sum test.
|

This part of the questionnaire has 13 questions, with scores ranging from 13 (least amount of bother) to 78 (most amount of bother).
For this secondary outcome, we are measuring the change in score on the OABq-SF Part 2 from baseline to 6 weeks.
Median change in scores were compared between the 2 groups using Wilcoxon Rank Sum test.
