Inclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of chronic prostatitis
  • Male adults at least 18 years of age
  • Moderate to severe chronic prostatitis, with an average pain score above a pre-defined level
  • To use .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of symptoms for less than 3 of the last 6 months
  • History of recurrent urinary tract infections, or genito-urinary cancer
  • Use of finasteride or dutasteride within 6 months.
  • History of , C or (HIV)
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

  3. Change From Baseline in National Institutes of Health-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI) Overall and Sub-scale Score at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    CPSI is a 9-item questionnaire, contains 3 modules that measure pain (question 1 to 4), urinary symptoms (question 5 and 6) and global quality of life (question 7 to 9). Total scores range from 0 to 21 on the pain module, 0 to 10 on the urinary symptoms and 0 to 12 on the quality of life module. NIH-CPSI total score (9-items) range from 0 to 43. Higher total and module scores indicate greater symptom severity and bother.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  4. Change From Baseline in Number of Micturitions Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    The micturition frequency per 24 hours was calculated from the sum of voluntary voids divided by the diary period over which they were collected.

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  5. Change From Baseline in Number of Nocturnal Micturitions Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    Nocturnal micturition was calculated as the sum of voluntary voids that occur during a night's sleep, divided by the number of nights over which this was collected.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  6. Change From Baseline in Mean Voided Volume Per Micturition at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    Mean voided volume per micturition was calculated as the total urine volume voided (resulting from a toilet \[voluntary\] void) during the diary period when this was measured, divided by the number of toilet voids over which this occurred.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  7. Change From Baseline in Mean Urinary Event Pain Score Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    Subject assessed discrete urinary events: voluntary toilet voids (with volume voided), and urgency episodes. For each urinary event, subjects assessed the level of pain intensity on a 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine). Mean pain severity per urinary event (toilet void, urgency episode) was calculated as the mean of all pain severities over the last 7 days prior to each assessment time point. Higher score indicated severe pain.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  8. Change From Baseline in Urinary Urgency Episodes Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  9. Change From Baseline in Mean Sleep Disturbance Score Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    Mean sleep disturbance score was calculated from the sleep disturbance experienced over the previous night. The average sleep disturbance score per night was determined from calculating an average of all sleep disturbance scores in the 7 days prior to each assessment time point. Participants answered: "Over the past 24 hours, how much did the symptoms that you associate with your chronic prostatitis disturb your sleep?" Participants responded on a 5-points rating scale, ranged from 0 = not at all, 1 = a little, 2 = somewhat, 3 = very, and 4 = extremely. Higher score indicated greater sleep disturbance.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  10. Change From Baseline in Mean Pain Score Associated With Ejaculation Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

    The participants were first asked whether they had ejaculated during the past 24 hours. If yes, they recorded how much pain related to ejaculation they had experienced during the past 24 hours by choosing the appropriate number an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no ejaculatory pain at all) to 10 (ejaculatory pain as bad as you can imagine). Higher score indicated greater pain. Mean pain score associated with ejaculation was calculated from all ejaculation pain scores recorded in the 7 days prior to each assessment time point.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  11. Number of Participants With Global Response Assessment (GRA)

    The GRA questionnaire is a 7-point symmetric scale, which measured patient-reported overall response to treatment compared to baseline with the following possible responses: 1= markedly worse, 2 = moderately worse, 3= slightly worse, 4= no change, 5 = slightly improved,6 = moderately improved, and 7 = markedly improved. Participants who reported either of the latter 2 categories were defined as treatment responders. Participants were asked "Compared to when you began this trial, how would you rate your chronic prostatitis symptoms now?". Participants responded on 7-point symmetric scale ranged 1 to 7, where higher score indicated improvement.

    Time frame: Week 6 and 16

  12. Patient Global Satisfaction Assessment

    Participant global satisfaction was assessed using Patient Reported Treatment Impact (PRTI) which was a self-administered questionnaire containing four items to assess participant satisfaction, previous treatment, preference and willingness to continue using the study medication. Participant's answered the question "Overall, how satisfied are you with the drug that you received since you entered this trial?". Participants provided response on a 5-point scale where 1=extremely dissatisfied, 2=dissatisfied, 3=neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, 4=satisfied and 5=extremely satisfied. Higher score indicated greater satisfaction, preference or willingness to use study medication. Number of participants with each response is reported.

    Time frame: Week 6 and 16

  13. Participant Global Preference

    Participant global preference is assessed using PRTI which is a self-administered questionnaire containing four items to assess participant satisfaction, previous treatment, preference and willingness to continue using the study medication. Participant reported previous treatment under following categories: lifestyle interventions, physical therapies, training programs, drug treatment - taken by mouth, surgery or other prostate procedure (e.g, microwave treatment), and no treatment. Participant preference was assessed using following categories: definitely prefer study medication, slightly prefer study medication, no preference, slightly prefer previous treatment, and definitely prefer previous treatment. Number of participants under each of the categories is reported. For previous treatment, a single participant may be represented in more than 1 category.

    Time frame: Week 6 and 16

  14. Patient Willingness to Re-use Medicine

    Participant willingness to re-use study medication was assessed using PRTI which is a self-administered questionnaire containing four items to assess participant satisfaction, previous treatment, preference and willingness to continue using the study medication. Participant willingness to re-use study medication was assessed using following categories: definitely want to re-use, might want to re-use, not sure, might not want to re-use, definitely would not want to re-use.

    Time frame: Week 6 and 16

  15. Percentage of Participants Who Received Rescue Medication

    In the event of inadequate pain relief or worsening symptoms of chronic prostatitis, participants were allowed to take acetaminophen/paracetamol 500 mg, tablets or capsules as rescue medication.

    Time frame: Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  16. Amount of Rescue Medication Taken

    In the event of inadequate pain relief or worsening symptoms of chronic prostatitis, participants were allowed to take acetaminophen/paracetamol 500 mg, tablets or capsules as rescue medication.

    Time frame: Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

  17. Serum and Urine Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) Levels

    Serum NGF level was measured using Immunoaffinity High Performance Liquid Chromatography - Tandem Mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS).

    Time frame: Day 1 (1 hour pre-dose), Weeks 2, 6, 10, and 16

  18. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study medication without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study medication and up to Week 16 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. AEs included SAEs as well as non-serious AEs which occurred during the trial.

    Time frame: Baseline up to Week 16

  19. Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Neurological Examination Abnormalities

    A neurological examination assessed the strength of groups of muscles of the head and neck, upper limbs and lower limbs, deep tendon reflexes and sensation (tactile, vibration, joint position sense and pin prick) of index fingers and great toes.

    Time frame: Baseline up to Week 16

  20. Post-void Residual (PVR) Volume

    PVR volume, an objective assessment of the amount of urine left in the bladder after normal urination and was monitored whether the active treatment had an adverse effect on lower urinary tract voiding function. The PVR volume was assessed using trans-abdominal ultrasound (e.g., bladder scanner) with the participant in a supine position immediately after voluntary urination.

    Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 16

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Mean Sleep Disturbance Score Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

Mean sleep disturbance score was calculated from the sleep disturbance experienced over the previous night. The average sleep disturbance score per night was determined from calculating an average of all sleep disturbance scores in the 7 days prior to each assessment time point. Participants answered: "Over the past 24 hours, how much did the symptoms that you associate with your chronic prostatitis disturb your sleep?" Participants responded on a 5-points rating scale, ranged from 0 = not at all, 1 = a little, 2 = somewhat, 3 = very, and 4 = extremely. Higher score indicated greater sleep disturbance.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Mean Pain Score Associated With Ejaculation Per 24 Hours at Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16

The participants were first asked whether they had ejaculated during the past 24 hours. If yes, they recorded how much pain related to ejaculation they had experienced during the past 24 hours by choosing the appropriate number an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 (no ejaculatory pain at all) to 10 (ejaculatory pain as bad as you can imagine). Higher score indicated greater pain. Mean pain score associated with ejaculation was calculated from all ejaculation pain scores recorded in the 7 days prior to each assessment time point.

SecondaryNumber of Participants With Global Response Assessment (GRA)

The GRA questionnaire is a 7-point symmetric scale, which measured patient-reported overall response to treatment compared to baseline with the following possible responses: 1= markedly worse, 2 = moderately worse, 3= slightly worse, 4= no change, 5 = slightly improved,6 = moderately improved, and 7 = markedly improved. Participants who reported either of the latter 2 categories were defined as treatment responders. Participants were asked "Compared to when you began this trial, how would you rate your chronic prostatitis symptoms now?". Participants responded on 7-point symmetric scale ranged 1 to 7, where higher score indicated improvement.

SecondaryPatient Global Satisfaction Assessment

Participant global satisfaction was assessed using Patient Reported Treatment Impact (PRTI) which was a self-administered questionnaire containing four items to assess participant satisfaction, previous treatment, preference and willingness to continue using the study medication. Participant's answered the question "Overall, how satisfied are you with the drug that you received since you entered this trial?". Participants provided response on a 5-point scale where 1=extremely dissatisfied, 2=dissatisfied, 3=neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, 4=satisfied and 5=extremely satisfied. Higher score indicated greater satisfaction, preference or willingness to use study medication. Number of participants with each response is reported.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 13, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
