Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Rezum Treatment

Patients received the Rezum transurethral needle ablation procedure to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Device: Rezum System
The Rezūm System treats patients with bothersome urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The Rezūm System utilizes radiofrequency current to generate "wet" thermal energy in the form of water vapor, which is then injected into the transition zone and/or median lobe of the prostate tissue in controlled 9-second doses. The vapor that is injected into the prostate tissue rapidly disperses through the interstitial space between the tissue cells. As the vapor cools, it condenses immediately on contact with tissue and the stored thermal energy is released, denaturing the cell membranes and causing cell death. The denatured cells are absorbed by the body, which reduces the volume of prostate tissue adjacent to the urethra. The vapor condensation process also causes a rapid collapse of vasculature in the treatment zone, resulting in a bloodless procedure.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Change From Baseline [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) scores were recorded at Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years. The mean change (improvement) in IPSS was calculated. IPSS scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (severe symptoms). Improvement in symptoms is shown by a reduction in score.

    2. Major Complications [3 months]

      Safety assessed by the frequency of systemic and local serious device related complications and the occurrence of unanticipated device-related adverse effects during treatment and at follow-up, up to 30 days. Due to the nature of the device, any device-related AEs are expected to present themselves during the immediate peri-procedure period (30 days post procedure). The device related complications that will be compared for this safety endpoint are: Severe Urinary Retention (Retention ≥ 24 hours) Fistula between rectum and urethra Perforation of the rectum or GI tract New incidences of retrograde ejaculation

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Proportion of Responders - Responders With a ≥ 30% International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Improvement [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      The proportion of study subjects who were responders were evaluated. A responder is defined as a subject with ≥ 30% improvement in BPH symptoms from baseline as measured by the IPSS.

    2. Proportion of Responders - Responders With a ≥ 50% International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Improvement [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      The proportion of study subjects who were responders were evaluated. For this measure a responder is defined as a subject with ≥ 50% improvement in BPH symptoms from baseline as measured by the IPSS.

    3. Proportion of Responders - Responders With Improvement ≥ 8 Points in IPSS [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Analysis will be provided for proportion of subjects with improvement ≥ 8 points from baseline at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years

    4. Uroflow Assessment - Change From Baseline in Peak Urinary Flow (Qmax) [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Peak urinary flow rate (Qmax) is the maximum urinary flow rate. It is calculated as milliliters (ml) of urine passed per second. Average results are based on age and sex. Typical uroflow rates ranges from 10 ml to 21 ml per second. An increase in mL/sec corresponds to improved urinary function.

    5. Uroflow Assessment - Proportion of Subjects With Qmax Improvement of ≥ 30% From Baseline [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Peak urinary flow rate (Qmax) is the maximum urinary flow rate. It is calculated as milliliters (ml) of urine passed per second. This measure reports the number of subjects who experienced a ≥ 30% improvement from baseline at each follow-up interval.

    6. Uroflow Assessment - Proportion of Subjects With Qmax Improvement of ≥ 3 ml/Sec [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Peak urinary flow rate (Qmax) is the maximum urinary flow rate. It is calculated as milliliters (ml) of urine passed per second. This measure reports the number of subjects who experienced a ≥3 mL/sec improvement from baseline at each follow-up interval.

    7. Uroflow Assessment - Change in Post Void Residual (PVR) by Follow up Interval [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Change in post void residual (PVR) urine volume in ml. Post void residual volume was measured by either ultrasound to measure the volume left in the bladder after urination, or by inserting a urinary catheter into the bladder after urination to drain and measure residual urine. Either measurement tool was allowed but the same measurement was to be used pre and post treatment.

    8. Change in Sexual Function - Erectile Function [1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      Change from baseline in sexual function was measured by the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) (Scoring on the IIEF ranges from 1 to 30. An increase in score indicates improvement from baseline)

    9. Change in Sexual Function - Retrograde Ejaculation [1 Week post procedure, 1 Month post procedure, 3 Months post procedure]

      Rate of Retrograde Ejaculation (when no fluid exits the penis during orgasm (e.g., dry orgasm)

    10. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Assessment by Prostate Volume [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) scores were recorded at Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years. The mean change in IPSS was calculated. IPSS scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (severe symptoms). Mean change in IPSS scores reported at each follow-up interval. Improvement in symptoms is shown by a reduction in score.

    11. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Assessment Based on Prostate Lobe Treated: Lateral Only vs. Lateral and Median Lobe [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) scores were recorded at Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years. The mean change in IPSS was calculated. IPSS scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (severe symptoms). Mean change in IPSS scores reported at each follow-up interval. Improvement in symptoms is shown by a reduction in score. Results report change in IPSS by follow up interval for subjects treated in both lateral lobes and median lobe vs. subjects treated in lateral lobes alone.

    12. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Assessment Based on Baseline IPSS [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, annually to 5 years]

      International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) scores were recorded at Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years. The mean change in IPSS was calculated. IPSS scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 35 (severe symptoms). Mean change in IPSS scores reported at each follow-up interval and grouped by Baseline IPSS. Improvement in symptoms is shown by a reduction in score.

    13. Procedural Pain Score [Day of treatment, 1 Day post procedure, 1 Week post procedure, 1 Month post procedure, 3 Months post procedure]

      Pain scores were obtained for all subjects using the Iowa Pain Thermometer. Maximum intraprocedural pain scores were analyzed, together with the pain scores reported at follow-up intervals through 3 months. The treatment pain scores were reported by subjects post-procedure and was based on their recollections. Scale is 0-12 with higher scores corresponding to higher pain reported.

    14. Quality of Life (QoL) - Change in QoL as Measured With the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) [Baseline to 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years]

      Change in Quality of Life was measured using a QoL question in the IPSS. QoL data were collected at each follow up visit. One question in the IPSS asked subjects to rate their "quality of life due to urinary symptoms" on a scale of 0 = Delighted to 6 = Terrible. A reduction in score from baseline equates to improved outcome.

    15. Quality of Life (QoL) - Change in QoL as Measured With the Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index (BPHII) [Baseline to 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years]

      Change in Quality of Life will be measured with the Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index (BPHII). Data were collected at specified follow up visits. BPHII scores range from 0 (no/mild symptoms) to 35 (severe symptoms). A reduction in score from baseline equates to an improvement in symptoms.

    16. Quality of Life (QoL) - Change in QoL as Measured With the EQ-5D-3L [1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years]

      Quality of Life was measured using EQ-5D-3L questionnaire. QoL data were collected at each follow up visit. The EQ-5D-3L is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome and was administered to all subjects to assess the effect of the treatment on the subjects' quality of life. EQ-5D-3L index ranges from -0.109 to 1.000, with 1.000 corresponding to the best health state and -0.109 corresponding to the worst health. Mean change in overall score from baseline is reported.

    17. Quality of Life (QoL) - Change in QoL as Measured With the EQ-5D-3L Visual Analog Scale (VAS) [1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years]

      Quality of Life was measured using EQ-5D-3L questionnaire and collected at each follow up visit. The EQ-5D-3L is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome and was administered to all subjects to assess the effect of the treatment on the subjects' quality of life. The EQ-5D-3L includes a visual analog scale (VAS) which is a vertical scale with numbers ranging from 0 to 100. Subjects were asked to draw a line to the place on the scale that best represented how good or bad his health was on that day. The worst state a subject can imagine is marked zero, and the best state the subject can imagine is marked 100. Mean change in VAS score from baseline is reported. An increase in score is considered a better outcome.

    18. Quality of Life (QoL) - QoL Dimensions as Measured With the EQ-5D-3L [1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, then annually to 5 years]

      Quality of Life was measured using EQ-5D-3L questionnaire. QoL data were collected at each follow up visit. The EQ-5D-3L is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome and was administered to all subjects to assess the effect of the treatment on the subjects' quality of life. Each dimension had 3 possible responses (1 =no problem, 2 =some problem 3 =severe problems) in the relevant health dimension. Presented below are the scoring counts for each of the dimensions for baseline and follow up interval.

    19. Subject Satisfaction - Satisfied With Overall Procedure [1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and annually to 5 years]

      Subject satisfaction assessed using a study specific questionnaire to evaluate the subject's overall satisfaction of the procedure at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and annually to 5 years. These will be measured as: • Proportion of subjects that are satisfied with the procedure overall Note: Subject Satisfaction Questionnaire is specific to the NxThera Rezūm treatment and 3 of the 7 questions were used to evaluate the subjects' overall satisfaction with the procedure. Within the questionnaire, subjects sometimes did not answer all of the questions, which resulted in a different "n" by question within the same follow-up time point.

    20. Subject Satisfaction - Proportion of Subjects Who Would Recommend Procedure to Friends and Family [1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and annually to 5 years]

    Arm/Group Title Rezum Treatment
    Arm/Group Description Subjects received the Rezum transurethral needle ablation procedure to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Rezum System: The Rezūm System treats patients with bothersome urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The Rezūm System utilizes radiofrequency current to generate "wet" thermal energy in the form of water vapor, which is then injected into the transition zone and/or median lobe of the prostate tissue in controlled 9-second doses. The vapor that is injected into the prostate tissue rapidly disperses through the interstitial space between the tissue cells. As the vapor cools, it condenses immediately on contact with tissue and the stored thermal energy is released, denaturing the cell membranes and causing cell death. The denatured cells are absorbed by the body, which reduces the volume of prostate tissue adjacent to the urethra. The vapor condensation process also causes a rapid collapse of vasculature in the treatment zone, resulting in a bloodless procedure.

    Arm/Group Description Subjects received the Rezum transurethral needle ablation procedure to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Rezum System: The Rezūm System treats patients with bothersome urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The Rezūm System utilizes radiofrequency current to generate "wet" thermal energy in the form of water vapor, which is then injected into the transition zone and/or median lobe of the prostate tissue in controlled 9-second doses. The vapor that is injected into the prostate tissue rapidly disperses through the interstitial space between the tissue cells. As the vapor cools, it condenses immediately on contact with tissue and the stored thermal energy is released, denaturing the cell membranes and causing cell death. The denatured cells are absorbed by the body, which reduces the volume of prostate tissue adjacent to the urethra. The vapor condensation process also causes a rapid collapse of vasculature in the treatment zone, resulting in a bloodless procedure.

    Title Subject Satisfaction - Satisfied With Overall Procedure
    Description Subject satisfaction assessed using a study specific questionnaire to evaluate the subject's overall satisfaction of the procedure at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and annually to 5 years. These will be measured as: • Proportion of subjects that are satisfied with the procedure overall Note: Subject Satisfaction Questionnaire is specific to the NxThera Rezūm treatment and 3 of the 7 questions were used to evaluate the subjects' overall satisfaction with the procedure. Within the questionnaire, subjects sometimes did not answer all of the questions, which resulted in a different "n" by question within the same follow-up time point.

    Arm/Group Title Rezum Treatment
    Arm/Group Description Subjects received the Rezum transurethral needle ablation procedure to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Rezum System: The Rezūm System treats patients with bothersome urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The Rezūm System utilizes radiofrequency current to generate "wet" thermal energy in the form of water vapor, which is then injected into the transition zone and/or median lobe of the prostate tissue in controlled 9-second doses. The vapor that is injected into the prostate tissue rapidly disperses through the interstitial space between the tissue cells. As the vapor cools, it condenses immediately on contact with tissue and the stored thermal energy is released, denaturing the cell membranes and causing cell death. The denatured cells are absorbed by the body, which reduces the volume of prostate tissue adjacent to the urethra. The vapor condensation process also causes a rapid collapse of vasculature in the treatment zone, resulting in a bloodless procedure.
