Impact of Tadalafil (LY450190) Once a Day or Tadalafil on Demand Compared to Sildenafil Citrate on Demand on Treatment Discontinuation in Patients With Erectile Dysfunction Who Are naïve to PDE5 Inhibitors
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate if treatment in erectile dysfunction with a long-acting drug (Tadalafil) taken once a day or taken as needed results in a longer treatment adherence and better long term outcomes (over 24 weeks), compared with a short-acting drug (Sildenafil Citrate) taken as needed.
Conditions: Erectile Dysfunction.
Primary outcome: Time to Discontinuation of Randomized Treatment.
Enrollment: 770 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 770 participants or records.
