A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Design Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Tadalafil Once-a-Day Dosing for 12 Weeks Followed by an Open-Label Extension to Evaluate the Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Tadalafil in Japanese Men With Signs and Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Abstract
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design to compare the efficacy and safety of tadalafil once-a-day dosing versus placebo for 12 weeks followed by an open-label extension to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of tadalafil in Japanese men with signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Conditions: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Primary outcome: Change From Baseline in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Total Score at 12-Week Endpoint.
Enrollment: 422 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: 422 participants or records.
