简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of tamsulosin and tadalafil compared to placebo in the treatment and prevention of urinary disorders after transperineal prostate biopsy
详细描述
After being informed about the clinical study and all the risks, all patients will be given a written informed consent. They will be randomised in three groups: A (tadalafil),B (tamsulosin) and C (placebo) and the drug or placebo will be administrated seven days before and seven days after transperineal prostate biopsy. Thirty minutes before the biopsy, all patients will receive a prophylactic antibiotic (ceftriaxone 2g intravenously) and an analgetic ( naklofen 75mg intramuscular injection). Before the biopsy patients will do an uroflowmetry to determine the Qmax and ultrasound(US) of the urinary tract to determine residual urine. After the biopsy is performed the patient fills out the international prostate symptom score (IPSS/QoL), visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) questionnaires. Seven days after the biopsy the patient discontinues with the therapy and makes a visit for routine control of uroflowmetry, US of the urinary tract and he previously mentioned questionnaires are filled out. After 30 days of the biopsy the patient makes a visit for regular control of the pathohistological findings, uroflowmetry and ultrasound of the urinary tract, along with filling out the questionnaires again.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Visual analog scale for pain (VAS)
时间窗: Time Frame 1: right after prostate biopsy, Time Frame 2: seven days after prostate biopsy
Visual analog scale is a simple scale that rates pain form zero to ten, where zero is rated as no pain and ten is rated as unbearable pain. The patient fills it by putting an X on the lane, where no pain, mild and moderate pain is on the left side of the line and severe, very severe and worst pain possible is on the right side of the line.
Change in International prostate symptom score ( IPSS/QoL)
时间窗: Time Frame 1: right after prostate biopsy, Time Frame 2: seven days after prostate biopsy, Time frame 3: 30 days after prostate biopsy
The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) can be utilized to measure the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms. It is a validated, reproducible scoring system to assess disease severity and response to therapy. The IPSS is made up of 7 questions related to voiding symptoms. A score of 0 to 7 indicates mild symptoms, 8 to 19 indicates moderate symptoms and 20 to 35 indicates severe symptoms. There is also a separate question regarding quality of life.
次要结局
- Change in The short form health survey - SF-36(Time Frame 1: right after prostate biopsy, Time Frame 2: seven days after prostate biopsy, Time frame 3: 30 days after prostate biopsy)
- Change in The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) Questionnaire(Time Frame 1: right after prostate biopsy, Time Frame 2: seven days after prostate biopsy, Time frame 3: 30 days after prostate biopsy)
