Condition(s) targeted: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Intervention: Dutasteride (Drug)
Phase: Phase 4
Status: Terminated
Sponsored by: GlaxoSmithKline Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): GSK Clinical Trials, BSc MBBS, Study Director, Affiliation: GlaxoSmithKline
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dutasteride at reducing
relapse rates of Acute Urinary Retention (AUR), including reduction in surgical intervention
for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), in patients who receive a 6 month treatment of
dutasteride (0. 5mg once daily) following a single episode of AUR followed by successful
Trial Without Catheter compared with placebo.
Clinical Details
Official title: A Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicentre Phase IV Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Dutasteride 0.5mg Administered Orally Daily for 24 Weeks to Reduce The Risk of Acute Urinary Retention Relapse Following Successful Trial Without Catheter.
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double-Blind, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Primary outcome: Acute Urinary Retention (AUR) relapse rate during the 24 week treatment period
Secondary outcome: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) related surgical intervention rates during study IPSS score during study Relationship between length of time of catheter in situ and Intravesical prostatic protrusion measurements on relapse rates

TWOC followed by up to seven days treatment with alpha blocker (preferably alfuzosin
10mg OD) post TWOC.
