BOTOX® at the Time of Prolapse Surgery for OAB

Intravesical OnabotulinumtoxinA Injection at the Time of Prolapse Surgery for the Treatment of Overactive Bladder Syndrome: a Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of the study will be to assess the efficacy and safety of bladder BOTOX® for overactive bladder symptoms, such as urinary urgency and frequency, given at the time of prolapse surgery.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

After being informed about the study and the potential risks, women scheduled for prolapse surgery will be screened for bothersome overactive bladder symptoms. Those that qualify and choose to enroll will be randomized to receive either bladder BOTOX® or a placebo at the time of their surgery. Neither the patient nor the investigators will know if the patient receives BOTOX® or a placebo. Subjects will complete questionnaires and bladder diaries both before and after surgery to determine efficacy and patient satisfaction. Potential adverse events, such as urinary tract infections and urinary retention, will be monitored throughout the study.

  • Masking: Triple

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intravesical OnabotulinumtoxinA
The treatment group will receive 100 units of BOTOX® reconstituted in 10mL of injectable preservative-free normal saline at the time of cystoscopy. An injection cystoscopy needle will be set to 3mm and used to inject 0.5mL reconstituted OnabotulinumtoxinA at each injection site, approximately 1cm apart along the posterior bladder wall, for a total of 20 injection sites (4 rows of 5 injection sites). This will be the only treatment.
Intravesical injection
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Subjects randomized to the placebo group will undergo the same procedure but will only receive 10mL of injectable preservative-free normal saline. This will be the only treatment.
Intravesical injection

  • Placebo

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from baseline to postoperative weeks 6 to 12 in Overactive Bladder bother short form (OAB-q SF) questionnaire looking for a decrease of 10 points, which is the minimally important difference.
Time Frame: From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
The OAB-q SF is a validated 6 item questionnaire that is scored and reported on a 0 to 100 point scale with increasing scores indicating more bother.
From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from baseline to postoperative weeks 6 to 12 in the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire short form (PISQ-12).
Time Frame: From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
The PISQ-12 is a 12 item validated questionnaire that evaluates sexual function in women with urinary incontinence and/or pelvic organ prolapse. It is reported on a scale of 0-48, with a higher score indicating worse sexual function.
From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
Change from baseline to postoperative weeks 6 to 12 in Patient Global Impression of Severity Scale (PGI-S).
Time Frame: From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
The PGI-S is a 7 point Likert scale, ranging from 1 to 7, with an increasing score indicating greater severity.
From baseline (time of enrollment) to 6-12 weeks postoperatively
Patient Global Impression of Improvement Scale (PGI-I) at 6 to 12 weeks postoperatively.
Time Frame: At 6-12 weeks postoperatively
The PGI-I is a 7 point Likert scale, ranging from 1 to 7, with an increasing score indicating less improvement.
At 6-12 weeks postoperatively
Urinary tract infection
Time Frame: From time of treatment to 12 weeks postoperative
Rate of urinary tract infections based on clinical suspicion and urine culture results
From time of treatment to 12 weeks postoperative
Urinary retention
Time Frame: From 2 weeks postoperatively to 12 weeks postoperatively
Rate of urinary retention requiring catheterization, defined as a post-void residual of more than 400mL or 200-400mL with symptoms of incomplete bladder emptying.
From 2 weeks postoperatively to 12 weeks postoperatively
