    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      The IPSS Total Score is obtained by combining the scores of the responses to Question 1 through Question 7. Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to 4 Weeks, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Impact Index [Baseline, 4 weeks]

      The BPH Impact Index (BII) is a 4-item, self-administered questionnaire evaluating impact of urinary problems on overall health and activity. Total scores range from 0 to 13; higher scores represent increased perceived impact of benign prostatic hyperplasia-lower urinary tract symptoms on overall health. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    2. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Impact Index [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      The BII is a 4-item, self-administered questionnaire evaluating impact of urinary problems on overall health and activity. Total scores range from 0 to 13; higher scores represent increased perceived impact of benign prostatic hyperplasia-lower urinary tract symptoms on overall health. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    3. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Storage (Irritative) Subscore [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      IPSS irritative subscore is the sum of Questions 2, 4 and 7 of the IPSS questionnaire. Scores range from 0 (few irritative symptoms) to 5 (frequent irritative symptoms), thus the 3 questions of the irritative subscore range from 0 to 15. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    4. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Voiding (Obstructive) Subscore [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      IPSS obstructive subscore is the sum of Questions 1, 3, 5 and 6 of the IPSS questionnaire. Scores range from 0 (few obstructive symptoms) to 5 (frequent obstructive symptoms), thus the 4 questions of the obstructive score range from 0 to 20. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    5. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Nocturia Question [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Measures nocturia (the need to get up at night to urinate). Scores range from 0 (few episodes of nocturia) to 5 (frequent episodes of nocturia). LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    6. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Quality of Life (QoL) Index [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Assessment of QoL by urinary symptoms, with scores ranging from 0 (delighted) to 6 (terrible). LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    7. Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), Number of Participants in 7 Response Categories [12 weeks]

      A scale that measures the patient's perception of improvement at the time of assessment compared with the start of treatment. The score ranges from 1 (very much better) to 7 (very much worse).

    8. Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I), Number of Participants in 7 Response Categories [12 weeks]

      Measures clinician's perception of patient improvement at the time of assessment compared with the start of treatment. Scores range from 1 (very much better) to 7 (very much worse).

    9. Change From Baseline to 1 Week, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) [Baseline, 1 week]

      The IPSS Total Score is obtained by combining the scores of the responses to Question 1 through Question 7. Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    10. Change From Baseline to 4 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) [Baseline, 4 Weeks]

      The IPSS Total Score is obtained by combining the scores of the responses to Question 1 through Question 7. Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    11. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF)- Erectile Function (EF) Domain Scores [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Self-reported EF. Scores range from 0 (low or no EF) to 5 (high EF) on 6 questions (1-5, 15 of the IIEF). EF Domain scores range from 0 to 30. LS mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an ANCOVA. The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.

    12. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, Peak Flow Rate (Qmax) by Uroflowmetry [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Qmax was defined as the peak urine flow rate (measured in milliliters per second [mL/sec] using standard calibrated flowmeter). At each visit, a uroflowmetry assessment was considered valid and the data were included in the statistical analyses only if the prevoid total bladder volume (assessed by ultrasound) was >=150 to <=550 milliliters (mL) and the voided volume (Vcomp) was >=125 mL.

    13. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, Mean Flow Rate (Qmean) by Uroflowmetry [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Qmean was defined as the mean urine flow rate (measured in mL/sec using standard calibrated flowmeter). At each visit, a uroflowmetry assessment was considered valid and the data were included in the statistical analyses only if the prevoid total bladder volume (assessed by ultrasound) was >=150 to <=550 mL and the Vcomp was >=125 mL.

    14. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, Voided Volume (Vcomp) by Uroflowmetry [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      Vcomp was defined as the volume of urine voided (measured in mL using standard calibrated flowmeter). At each visit, a uroflowmetry assessment was considered valid and the data were included in the statistical analyses only if the prevoid total bladder volume (assessed by ultrasound) was >=150 to <=550 mL and the Vcomp was >=125 mL.

    15. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, Postvoid Residual (PVR) Volume [Baseline, 12 weeks]

      The amount of urine remaining in the bladder after void completion.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)
    Description The IPSS Total Score is obtained by combining the scores of the responses to Question 1 through Question 7. Each question is scored from 0-5 for a total IPSS range of 0-35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms. Least squares (LS) mean of change from baseline to endpoint is from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The model includes terms for treatment group, region, centered-baseline covariate, centered-baseline-by-treatment interaction and treatment-by-region interaction.
    Time Frame Baseline, 12 weeks

    Outcome Measure Data

    Analysis Population Description
    The analysis population was defined as all subjects who were randomized, started study medication, and had non-missing data at baseline and at least one post-baseline visit. The Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) imputation technique was employed.
    Arm/Group Title Tadalafil Placebo
    Arm/Group Description Following screening, a 4-week washout period (if needed) and a 4-week placebo lead-in period, subjects were randomized to receive tadalafil 5 mg orally once daily over a 12-week period. Following screening, a 4-week washout period (if needed) and a 4-week placebo lead-in period, subjects were randomized to receive placebo orally once daily over a 12-week period.

    Outcome Measure Data

    Analysis Population Description
    The analysis population was defined as all randomized subjects who started study medication, and had non-missing data at baseline and at least one post-baseline measurement. Measures were taken only for those subjects who reported they were sexually active and reported erectile dysfunction. The LOCF imputation technique was employed.
    Arm/Group Title Tadalafil Placebo
    Arm/Group Description Following screening, a 4-week washout period (if needed) and a 4-week placebo lead-in period, subjects were randomized to receive tadalafil 5 mg orally once daily over a 12-week period. Following screening, a 4-week washout period (if needed) and a 4-week placebo lead-in period, subjects were randomized to receive placebo orally once daily over a 12-week period.
