Prostatic Artery Embolization for the Treatment of Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

September 26, 2021 updated by: Andrew Picel

Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE) Using LC Bead LUMI for the Treatment of Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

This is a single center, prospective, investigational study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) for the treatment of moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Embolization will be performed with LC Bead LUMI particles using a balloon occlusion microcatheter or standard microcatheter.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Balloon occlusion microcatheter
Participants will undergo the PAE procedure using LC Bead LUMI delivered through a balloon occlusion microcatheter.
Prostatic artery embolization is performed using LC Bead LUMI, which is the investigational device. The particles are administered to the prostatic arteries using either a balloon occlusion or standard microcatheter. Follow-up is performed at 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after intervention.
Experimental: Standard microcatheter
Participants will undergo the PAE procedure using LC Bead LUMI delivered through a standard microcatheter.
Prostatic artery embolization is performed using LC Bead LUMI, which is the investigational device. The particles are administered to the prostatic arteries using either a balloon occlusion or standard microcatheter. Follow-up is performed at 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after intervention.
