Safety and Efficacy Study of Intravesical Instillations of BotuGelTM, Slow Release RTGel Based Botox® Formulations, in Idiopathic OAB Patients With Urinary Incontinence ("INTIMO2") (INTIMO2)

A Randomized Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Intravesical Instillations of BotuGelTM, Slow Release RTGel Based Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) Formulations, in Idiopathic OAB Patients With Urinary Incontinence ("INTIMO2")

The study will investigate the safety and efficacy of UroGen's TC-3 Gel for sustained release of Botulinum Toxin A (BTX) in urinary bladder in patients with idiopathic overactive bladder.

Study Overview

• Status: Withdrawn
• Conditions: Overactive Bladder
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: 300 IU of BotuGelTM (60ml); Drug: 400 IU of BotuGelTM (60ml); Device: TC-3 Gel

Detailed Description

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome, defined by the International Continence Society (ICS), as the presence of "urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of a urinary tract infection (UTI) or other obvious pathology." This study will evaluate a new of mode of treatment, with intravesical bladder instillation with Botox® mixed with TC-3 that may bypass the drawbacks of the current bladder injection treatment mode in OAB patients. Additionally it will provide preliminary safety and efficacy data that may serve as a basis for a larger study exploring safety and efficacy aspects of this new mode of treatment.

50 patients will be randomized in a horse race fashion in a ~2:2:1 ratio. The patients will be screened for up to 3 weeks prior to treatment.

The patients will be requested to stop their OAB medications 7 days prior to treatment visit. 20 patients will receive one instillation of 300U of BotuGel (60ml), 20 patients will receive one instillation of 400U of BotuGel (60ml) and 10 patients will receive one instillation of 60 ml RTGel-TC-3 Gel (Placebo), all patients will be followed up for safety and efficacy endpoints until 6 weeks post instillation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Urinary retention	Urinary retention events defined as a PVR >200 and <350 ml with patient reported symptoms that in the investigator's opinion require initiation of CIC, or PVR≥350 regardless of symptoms.	6 weeks
Urinary tract infection (UTI) events	Urinary tract infection (UTI) events* *Asymptomatic bacteruria will not be considered UTI and will be reported as separate AEs.	6 weeks
Post-void residual (PVR)	PVR-Change from baseline in PVR as measured by bladder ultrasonography at week 4 post instillation	6 weeks
Adverse events	Adverse events during and post instillation procedure.	6 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
3-day voiding Diary	3-day voiding Diary; Change from baseline in number of Urgency episodes and Urinary Incontinence episodes/24h; Change from baseline in number of voids/24h; Change from baseline in number of nocturnal voids per night (Based on individual patient's night and day hours); Change from baseline in Mean volume voided per micturition/24h	Week 4 and 6 post-instillation
Kings Health Questionnaire (KHQ score) comparing to baseline	KHQ score comparing to baseline	Week 4 and 6 post-instillation
