Read the detailed description

This is an European double-blind, placebo controlled parallel group comparison of DUODART (fixed dose combination of dutasteride 0.5mg and tamsulosin 0.4mg, one capsule daily) and placebo. Men eligible at screening will be randomised, after a 4 week placebo run-in, to the 2 treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio. All men will receive standardised lifestyle advice (primarily concerning weight management and exercise) relevant to maintaining sexual function. Men will also receive a standardised lifestyle advice leaflet for BPH. The double blind phase will continue for 12 months, with assessment visits at 2 weeks and at months 1, 3, 6, 9 and a final visit at month 12. Subjects with sexual adverse events during the double blind phase will continue to be followed at scheduled study visits until resolution of the adverse event or at a visit 6 months after the last dose of study medication, whichever is sooner.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

To assess the change in sexual function from baseline to 1 year in sexually active men with at least moderate BPH (international prostate symptom score - IPSS = or > 12) who are treated with DUODART, compared to men treated with placebo . Change in sexual function will be assessed by change in total score from the full men's sexual health questionnaire (MSHQ) which has domains for erectile dysfunction, ejaculatory function and libido.

Inclusion criteria

  • Males aged ≥50 years.
  • Men must be sexually active. A man is considered sexually active if he has been engaged in sexual activity with a partner during the past 4 weeks (at least once) and plans to be active during the next 4 weeks (unless due to travel or other practical reasons). Men should confirm that they are in a stable relationship and expect to maintain their sexual activity over the next year.
  • A confirmed clinical diagnosis of BPH.
  • International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) ≥12 at Visit 1 (screening), with bother score 4 or less (score from the IPSS Quality of Life question 8).
  • Prostate volume ≥30 cc (by transrectal ultrasonography; TRUS). Measurement should be available by the baseline visit and should have been made /arranged at the screening visit or within the previous 6 months.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Ejaculatory Dysfunction (EjD) at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 Months

Ejaculation scale is a domain of MSHQ to assess ejaculatory dysfunction. EjS is the sum of score for questions 5 to 11. The score ranges from 1 (could not ejaculate) to 35 (strong ejaculation). Change from BL at the scheduled post-baseline time points were analyzed using MMRM analysis method with an Observed Cases approach. Values are expressed as adjusted mean along with standard error. The MMRM analysis included fixed categorical effects of treatment, visit and treatment by visit interaction and the continuous fixed covariates of BL total score and BL score by visit interaction. BL is defined as earliest DB treatment start date if the par. took at least one dose of DB study drug; change from BL was calculated as Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 values minus BL value(s). Only those par with non-missing change from baseline data were analysed (presented as n=X,X in the category titles)
