Prospective RCT on Post Prostatectomy Urine Leak

Phase 3
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Urinary Incontinence
Interventions
Behavioral: Pelvic Floor Muscle Training
Registration Number
NCT02367404
Lead Sponsor
Institut Mutualiste Montsouris
Brief Summary

Objectives:

Primary: Comparison of proportion of patient achieving continence between the four arms at 6 months.

Secondary:

* Comparison of time to achieve continence between the four arms.

* Comparison of urinary symptoms and quality of life improvement between the four arms.

* Assessment of adverse events in Duloxetine arms.

Primary outcome/ time frame: Proportion of patient achieving continence at 6 months. Continence is defined as "using no pad"or "only security pad".

Secondary outcome:

* time to achieve continence

* Quality of life tested in relation to incontinence according to Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and King's Health Questionnaire (KQH).

* Urinary symptoms measured with International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS).

No. of subjects entered: 300 patients informed and included, 240 patients will be randomized.

Statistical methods

* Proportion of patients who achieve continence and time to achieve continence will be compared between the four arms.

* Comparison of quality of life outcomes between the four arms

* Comparison of clinical variables that can affect the primary/secondary outcome - univariate and multivariate analysis (ITT).
