- For male subjects: Undergone prostatectomy at least 6 months prior to inclusion
- Have at least 7 incontinence episodes per week in the diary entries for the Screening Placebo Run In Period
- Subject is ambulatory and able to use the toilet independently
- If subjects use pelvic floor exercises, subjects must have been on a stable exercise and activity regime for at least 3 months prior to screening and that regime must remain stable during the treatment period
- Subject has a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 19 kg/m2 but ≤ 35 kg/m2 BMI=weight [kg] / height [m2}
- Subjects must have a pre-dose mean systolic/diastolic blood pressure of ≤ 140/90 mmHg before randomization can occur
For female subjects: Must not be pregnant, lactating, or actively trying to become pregnant, Subjects who are premenopausal and of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening (serum) and at Day 0 (urine) and must use a medically acceptable and effective method of birth control for the duration of the study, which can include:
- Having a male partner who is sterile prior to the female subject's entry into the study and is the sole sexual partner for that female subject
- Use of double-barrier methods of contraception; condoms with the use of caps (with spermicide) and intra-uterine devices are acceptable
- Use of hormonal contraceptives (oral, depots, patches, etc.) with double-barrier methods of contraception as outlined above
- True abstinence: When this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject (period abstinence [eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception)
- Subjects taking oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy (women) or hormone adjuvant therapy (men) must have a stable dose and regimen for ≥ 3 months prior to entry into the study
Exclusion Criteria:
A subject will not be eligible to participate in the study if they meet any of the following criteria:

For men: urethral surgery within 6 months of Screening
- History of interstitial cystitis or bladder-related pain
- Subjects with concurrent (at Screening), recent (within 30 days), chronic, or recurrent (> 4 per year) urinary tract infections (positive dipstick for urinary tract infection and abnormal microscopic evaluation, signs and symptoms) or unevaluated microhematuria
- History of diagnosed gastrointestinal obstructive disorders
- Chronic severe constipation
- History of radiation cystitis or history of pelvic irradiation
- Electrostimulation, biofeedback, or bladder training therapy (behavioural therapy), during the previous month prior to Screening, or the intention to initiate such therapies during the study period. Pessaries and implants are also excluded.

Any concurrent condition or any clinically significant abnormality on the Screening physical examination, laboratory tests, electrocardiogram (ECG; including ischemic heart disease), Hepatitis B or C, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may affect the interpretation of safety or efficacy data, or which otherwise contraindicates participation in a clinical study with litoxetine:
- Hypersensitivity to litoxetine or any of its ingredients
- History of clinically significant drug hypersensitivity
- Subjects with current (within 2 years) urogenital neoplasms or malignancies including bladder, uterine or cervical cancer (not applicable to male subjects with prostate cancer in whom a prostatectomy has been performed)
- Subjects with neuropathology that could affect the lower urinary tract or nerve supply, including but not limited to multiple sclerosis, stroke, Parkinsonism, or spinal cord injury
- Subjects with diabetes insipidus
- Clinically significant or unstable, endocrine, hepatic, renal, immunologic, or lung disease (ie, active chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), or malignancy other than non-melanomatous skin cancer

- Severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or greater)
- Current or recent (6 months) treatment for depression, or a current diagnosis of depression or have a state of depression or suicidality at Screening.
- History of current or recent (6 months) suicidal ideation and behaviour (SIB), or history of any suicide attempt in the past 12 months.
- History of an addiction to drugs or alcohol within 5 years prior to screening, or of alcohol or substance abuse within the past year, as determined by the Investigator. 26. Current use of the following medications:, any serotonergic medication, nonselective irreversible monoamineoxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A2 inhibitors (such as fluvoxamine, ciprofloxacin, or enoxacin), cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 inhibitors (bupropion, fluoxetine, metoclopromide, paroxetine, quinidine), pimozide and thioridazine, and any other medication that would be considered a safety risk for co-administration with litoxetine (See Section 5.7.2 Prohibited Medications)
27. Participation in a clinical study within the month prior to Screening, or exposure to an investigational drug which has not washed out for at least 5 half-lives since its last administration, prior to Screening.
28. In the opinion of the Investigator, is at risk of non-compliance with study procedures, or cannot read, understand, or complete study-related materials (including electronic diaries), particularly informed consent.
