About

Purpose: The purpose of this pilot study is to determine preliminary estimates of the parameters related to the distribution of the study endpoints including: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and quality of life (QoL) score changes, Qmax (maximum urine flow rate) changes, post void residual volume (PVR) changes, percent prostate infarction and presence of non-target embolization.

Participants: 20 adult male subjects with benign hyperplasia will be enrolled in this study.

Procedures (methods): This will be a multisite, open label pilot study with a small population undergoing an investigational intervention (prostatic artery embolization) to determine initial safety and potential for efficacy as measured by improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and decrease in prostate size.
