Registration Number
NCT02948842
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of clostridium histolyticum collagenase (XIAFLEX®) in treating urethral strictures.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, pilot study to explore the efficacy of clostridium histolyticum collagenase (XIAFLEX®) in treating urethral strictures. Subjects will be followed for 2 years from the initial drug treatment.

Treatment GroupSalinePatients will undergo instillation of local anesthesia (20 mL of 2% urethral lidocaine jelly), the patient will undergo cystoscopy, transurethral injection (via a 70 cm 4.8 Fr flexible cystoscopic needle with a 23 gauge needle tip manufactured by Laborie®, Ontario, Canada) of 0.08ml of XIAFLEX® (0.58 mg of XIAFLEX® mixed with 0.39 mL of sterile diluent) in a single location within the stricture, chased by an additional 0.25 mL of reconstituted XIAFLEX® to allow for clearance of the original 0.08 mL of reconstituted XIAFLEX® from the transurethral syringe into the urethral stricture.

Number of Subjects With Complication After Treatment84 days

Number of subjects with complication after treatment with clostridium histolyticum collagenase

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline and 6 Months: American Urology Association Questionnaire Scores6 months

The American Urology Association questionnaire score is totaled based on 7 questions. Each question asks the subject to rate their symptom on a 5-point scale from "Not at All" (0) to "Almost Always" (5). The total score is based on adding rating marked for each question. The total runs from 0 to 35 points with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.
