About

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superiority of the solifenacin succinate (treatment) over the placebo (control) based on the change from the baseline in the mean number of urgency episodes per 24 hours after 2 weeks.

Full description

The BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia) patients who have OAB (overactive bladder) after TURP (trans-urethral resection of prostate) or PVP (photoselective vaporization of prostate) will participate in this study. The subjects will be randomized 1:1 to the solifenacin succinate group or to the placebo treatment group. The subjects shall take investigational product each night before sleeping from for four weeks and complete voiding diary. At Week-2 and Week-4 of the treatment, the subjects will be asked to complete the following activities: physical exam, vital signs test, IPSS, OABSS, post-void residual (PVR) test, and uroflowmetry, and will be asked to answer the BSW, (Benefit, Satisfaction and Willingness to Continue Questions) questionnaire.

  • Randomization (after TURP or PVP)

    • Patients who have been diagnosed with OAB by the investigators
    • Patients who underwent catheter removal 5±2 days beforehand and will have more than an average of three urgency episodes per 24 hrs and more than an average of eight micturitions per 24 hrs in a row before Visit 3, as recorded in the voiding diary
    • Patients who will score more than 5 in questions 2, 4, and 7, which are on the storage symptoms in IPSS
