研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Sativex® compared with placebo in reducing the daily number of episodes on incontinence.
详细描述
This is a ten week, multicentre, double blind, randomised, placebo controlled parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy of Sativex® on urge incontinence associated with neurogenic unstable bladder. Multiple sclerosis patients with incontinence symptoms are screened to determine eligibility and complete a two-week baseline period. They then return for a further eligibility check, randomisation and initial dosing. Subjects titrate and self-medicate with study medication between study visits at weeks two and five. They will also complete efficacy assessments in their diary-books and at visits.

研究组 & 干预措施
Sativex
Each 100 ul actuation contains 27 mg delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 25 mg cannabidiol (CBD). A maximum of 48 actuations (130 mg of THC and 120 mg of CBD) was permitted in any 24 hour period.
干预措施: Sativex® (Drug)
Placebo
Each 100 ul actuation contains the colorants plus excipients. A maximum of 48 actuations was permitted in any 24 hour period.
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in the Mean Daily Number of Incontinence Episodes at the End of Treatment
时间窗: 0 - 10 weeks
To assess the effect of Sativex in neurogenic overactive bladder, the incontinence episode frequency was selected as the primary endpoint. Baseline was the average of all available data recorded during the 14 days immediately prior to the randomisation visit. End of Treatment was the last average available from Week 3, Week 5, and Weeks 7-8. A negative value indicates an improvement in score from baseline.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline in the Mean Daily Number of Incontinence Pads Used at the End of Treatment(0 - 10 weeks)
- Change From Baseline in Mean Overall Bladder Condition 0-10 Numerical Rating Scale Score at the End of Treatment(0 - 10 weeks)
- Patient's Global Impression of Change(0 - 10 weeks)
- Change From Baseline in the Mean Number of Daily Voids at the End of Treatment(0 - 10 weeks)
- Change From Baseline in the Mean Daily Episodes of Nocturia at the End of Treatment(0 - 10 weeks)
- Change From Baseline in the Mean Daily Episodes of Urgency at the End of Treatment(Daily diary entries throughout 10 week study period)
- Change From Baseline in Mean Total Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL) Questionnaire Score at the End of Treatment (Completion or Withdrawal)(0 - 10 weeks)
