To Establish the Safety and Effectiveness of the ALPFA GRAIL PFA System for Treating Symptomatic Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) Also Known as an Enlarged Prostate. (REBOUND)

10. November 2026 aktualisiert von: ALPFA Medical

A Prospective Randomized Pivotal Trial of the ALPFA Medical Prostate Ablation System Compared With Cystoscopy in Men With Symptomatic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The main goal of this study is to evaluate the ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System for treatment of enlarged prostate (BPH) symptoms. The study will involve up to 250 male participants who have urinary problems caused by BPH and whom are greater than 40 years of age in up to 30 investigational centers across the US,Canada and European Union.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

This study aims to test how safe and effective the ALPFA BPH PFA System is for treating men over age 40 who have urinary problems caused by an enlarged prostate (BPH).The study will involve up to 250 participants in up to 30 investigational centers across the US, Canada, and European Union.

Men who agree to join the study will have health checks before treatment. Those who meet the study eligibility criteria including medication washout requirements,will be placed by chance into one of two groups. Two out of three men will receive treatment with the ALPFA BPH PFA System. One out of three men will receive a sham procedure that looks like treatment but does not deliver treatment.Participants will be followed for longer term safety and effectiveness for a total of 5 years post treatment with the ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System.

Patients and site personnel administering follow-up assessments will be blinded to the randomized treatment through completion of the 3-month follow-up visit.

After 3 months, participants will be told which group they were in. Men who were in the sham group may choose to receive treatment with the ALPFA BPH PFA System. Men in the sham group who do not choose treatment by 6 months will no longer take part in the study.

All men who receive treatment will have follow-up visits at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. After that, they will be checked once a year for up to 5 years.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Aktiver Komparator: Treatment Device

Men who join the study will first have a health check to see if they can take part. If they meet the study requirements and have stopped any restricted medications, they will be assigned by chance to a treatment group and treated with the ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System(Treatment) per their randomized assignment. Participants will then have follow-up visits with health checks as planned for this study

After the participant receives anesthesia, the Investigator will proceed with placement of the ALPFA GRAIL PFA Catheter into the prostate via a standard flexible cystoscope. Visualization of the prostatic urethra will determine the number of balloons that are exposed and inflated.

When the catheter has been properly positioned, the ALPFA GRAIL PFA Console will be activated and one PFA application will be delivered. The Investigator will assess if the catheter needs to be repositioned and additional ablation applications delivered, as necessary. Once ablation is complete, the catheter balloons will be deflated, and the catheter will be withdrawn from the urethra.

Participants will then have follow-up visits with health checks as planned for this study.

Schein-Komparator: Control Device

Men who join the study will first have a health check to see if they can take part. If they meet the study requirements and have stopped any restricted medications, they will be assigned by chance to a control group and treated with sham flexible cystoscopy (Control) per their randomized assignment. Participants will then have follow-up visits with health checks as planned for this study

Participants will receive mock treatment with a flexible cystoscope with a working channel that is at least 6.9F in diameter. The cystoscope will be inserted and treatment script initiated. Once the script is completed, the cystoscope will be removed and procedural details captured on the relevant CRF.

Participants will then have follow-up visits with health checks as planned for this study.

Sonstiges: Crossover Cohort

Control Arm (Sham) patients can receive treatment with the ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System after their 3-month follow-up assessments are completed, and participant symptom profile necessaites treatment and alll protocol defined enrollment criteria are met. The study visit follow-up schedule will restart and the subject will be followed for 60 months post ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System(Treatment)Unless treated with the ALPFA GRAIL™ Pulsed Field Ablation(PFA)System, the subject will be exited from the study once they have completed their 3-month follow-up visit.

After the participant receives anesthesia, the Investigator will proceed with placement of the ALPFA GRAIL PFA Catheter into the prostate via a standard flexible cystoscope. Visualization of the prostatic urethra will determine the number of balloons that are exposed and inflated.

When the catheter has been properly positioned, the ALPFA GRAIL PFA Console will be activated and one PFA application will be delivered. The Investigator will assess if the catheter needs to be repositioned and additional ablation applications delivered, as necessary. Once ablation is complete, the catheter balloons will be deflated, and the catheter will be withdrawn from the urethra.

Participants will then have follow-up visits with health checks as planned for this study.

Primäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Safety-Incidence of Serious Device-or Procedure-Related Adverse Events (Composite Safety Endpoint)
Zeitfenster: Through 12 months post-procedure

The primary safety endpoint is the proportion of participants experiencing one or more of the following serious device-related or procedure-related adverse event through 12 months post-procedure

Through 12 months post-procedure
Effectiveness-Change from Baseline in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at 3 Months.
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 3 months post-procedure

The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is a 7-item questionnaire (score range 0-35) where higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Success is defined as the Treatment group showing a 25% greater relative improvement in mean score compared to the Control group

Baseline to 3 months post-procedure
Effectiveness-Durability of Treatment Effect: Percent Change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at 12 Months
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 12 months post-procedure

This endpoint evaluates the long-term effectiveness of the ALPFA GRAIL PFA System. It is calculated as the mean percentage change in the total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) score from the start of the study (baseline) to the 12-month follow-up for participants in the treatment group.

Zeitfenster
Additional Study Goals
Zeitfenster: 3 months

1.Comparison of Symptom Improvement (at 3 Months) Researchers will compare the average change in prostate symptoms between the group that received the study treatment and the control group. This helps show if the treatment provides more relief than the standard comparison.

3 months
Success Stories (Responder Rate)
Zeitfenster: 3 months

2. Number of "Success Stories" (Responder Rate) The study will count how many participants had a meaningful improvement in their symptoms. A "responder" (a success) is defined as a person whose symptoms improved by at least 30% three months after the treatment.

3 months
Improvement in Urine Flow
Zeitfenster: 3 months

3. Improvement in Urine Flow (Qmax) Researchers will measure the strength of the participant's urine flow. They will compare the average change in flow strength from the start of the study to three months later between the treatment group and the control group.
