Safety and Efficacy of SAF312 in Patients With Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity Due to Spinal Cord Lesions
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of SAF312 in patients with overactive bladder disease due to spinal cord lesions. The overactive bladder of patients who qualify for this study is insufficiently managed by antimuscarinic therapy, or patients poorly tolerate the treatment with antimuscarinic drugs. The efficacy of SAF312 will be primarily determined via urodynamic measurements.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum cystometric capacity (MCC) [1 week]
Examined during filling cystometry as measured by changes from baseline following treatment for one week.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety [1 week]
Safety (physical exam, vital signs, haematology, coagulation parameters, clinical chemistry and urinalysis, ECG, pregnancy test, hand immersion test and PK [concentrations of SAF312 in blood]).
- Bladder threshold vol, threshold pressure, instilled vol at first leak, detrusor pressure at first leak, vol/detrusor pressure at first sensation and at first desire to void, maximum detrusor pressure during filling/storage, bladder wall compliance [1 week]
All parameters examined during filling cystometry as measured by changes from baseline following treatment for one week
- Micturition or catheterization frequency [1 week]
Changes from baseline, as measured by daily diaries.
- Incontinence episodes [1 week]
Changes from baseline as measured by daily diaries.
