- Brief Summary
Stress urinary incontinence related to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) is a severe form of incontinence that may have a major impact on the quality of life. The main treatment is surgical and consists in the implantation of medical devices such as the artificial urinary sphincter, adjustable continence therapy, compressive sling, or injection of bulking agent.
The investigator has developed a new therapeutic strategy for ISD that consist to implant myofibers with their attached satellite cells (the main source of muscle progenitor cells) at the vicinity of the striated urethral sphincter. The principle of this method relies on the in vivo activation of satellite cells leading to the formation of regenerated myofibers (myotubes) generating a distinct and tonic muscular activity . The proof of concept was investigated in a Phase I clinical trial: Investigator found that the periurethral implantation of myofiber strips around the urethra generated an electromyographic activity improving urethral closure pressure in women with severe urinary incontinence associated to ISD. In this previous study, the technique of myofiber implantation was invasive, as it required a surgical approach and dissection of the urethra to place the myofiber. For the clinical trial IPSMA, the investigator sought to optimize the myofiber transplantation process using a method injection of myofibers core obtained by hydro-dissection. The injection technique is performed percutaneously under fluoroscopic and endoscopic control and does not require a surgical approach of the urethra.
This clinical trial is prospective, open-label, non-randomized, uncontrolled, single-center for the first stage and multicenter for the second stage, of 13 months for each patient aims to assess the efficacy and safety of IPSMA in the treatment of urinary incontinence in women with ISD.
- Detailed Description
The investigator chose an assessment method in 2 stages according to the Simon plane . A total of 38 patients are needed. Assuming a ratio of 10% of lost patients or for which the primary endpoint was not evaluable, 4 additional patients will be included totaling 42 patients will be included.
This trial is single-center for the first stage and multicenter for the second stage.
11 patients will be included in the first stage and 31 patients in the second stage.

Group Intervention Description IPSMA Peri sphincter injection Autologous myofibers Injection Peri Sphincter Myofibers Autologous
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Step 1: Tolerance One year after treatment - Tolerance: Serious adverse events grade 3 or more related to the procedure according to Data Safety and Monitoring Board (DSMB)
Step 1 and 2: Rate of patients responder at M12 after surgery One year after treatment Efficiency: Response is defined by an improvement in 24h pad weight as greater than 50% reduction from baseline and improvement in the number of incontinence episodes per day as greater than 50% reduction from baseline
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of patients cured at M12. patients are considered as cured if: - The absence of pad use, a 24h pad test <2g AND - The absence of urinary leakage reported in the voiding diary (3 consecutive days). One year after treatment Occurrence of serious and non-serious adverse events One year after treatment Response times One year after treatment Urodynamic evaluation One year after treatment Leak Point Pressure (LPP), maximal urethral closure pressure (MUCP), area under the curve (profilometry), electromyogram (EMG) gives urodynamic evaluation
Number of re-intervention required (conventional treatment after 6 months) to treat persistent urinary incontinence after IPSMA 6 months after treatment Patients with a reduction in the 24h pad test <50% at one year will be considered failure. One year after treatment Healing times One year after treatment Defined by :
* The absence of pad use, a 24h pad test \<2g AND
* The absence of urinary leakage reported in the voiding diary (3 consecutive days).Improvement of quality of life One year after treatment Direct global cost of IPSMA surgery One year after treatment
