NCT05874375 | RECRUITING | Urinary Incontinence

UCon Treatment of Overactive Bladder (OAB) in Males
Sponsor:

InnoCon Medical

Brief Summary:

UCon is a medical device for treatment of the symptoms of OAB and fecal incontinence (FI). It electrically stimulates the DGN through the skin to obtain modulated behaviour of the bladder musculature e.g., suppress undesired bladder activity to relieve the symptoms of the patient. This clinical investigation is a randomized, cross-over, single-site, prospective, early feasibility study, which is used to evaluate Ucon with respect to its initial clinical safety and device performance in a small number of males with OAB.

Condition or disease

Urinary Incontinence

Urge Incontinence

Nocturia

Urinary Frequency More Than Once at Night

Urinary Incontinence, Urge

Incontinence, Nighttime Urinary

Intervention/treatment

Urge stimulation

Time limited stimulation

Phase

NA

Detailed Description:

The purpose of the current investigation is to obtain information about the type of stimulation that Ucon provide (time limited vs. urge stimulation), would be the most effective and feasible for the treatment of non-neurogenic OAB symptoms in males.

  • 5. Subject has used antimuscarinics or β3 agonists within 14 days weeks\*.
  • 6. Subject has an implanted pacemaker, implantable drug pump or other active medical device (any medical device that uses electrical energy or other source of power to make it function).
  • 7. Subject is enrolled or planning to enrol in another clinical investigation or was enrolled in an investigational drug study or medical device investigation within four weeks to enrolment.
  • 8. Subject has neuropathy to a degree that is presumed to diminish the effect of the electrical stimulation.

  • 10. Subject has addictive behaviour defined as abuse of alcohol, cannabis, opioids, or other intoxicating drugs.
  • 11. Subject does not speak and understand Dutch.
  • * If a subject is currently being treated with antimuscarinics or β3 agonists, he is allowed to be included in the investigation, however, a washout period of 14 days is required before baseline can be established.
