Detailed Description
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, single-blind, sham-controlled study to evaluate the safety, performance, and effectiveness of the ProVee Urethral Expander System (Investigational Device) when used in subjects with symptomatic urinary obstruction related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Subjects are assigned to their treatment arm using an unbalanced (2 ProVee:1 Sham) randomization stratified by Investigational Sites.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: Device: The ProVee Urethral Expander System The ProVee Urethral Expander System consists of two components: a nitinol Expander implant and a 19Fr Delivery System designed to allow the Expander to be deployed under direct vision for the treatment arm. |
Device: ProVee Urethral Expander System
ProVee Expander is placed in prostatic urethra to relieve obstruction due to BPH.
Other Names:
|
| Sham Comparator: Sham: Ureteroscope and urethral access sheath An ureteroscope housed within the inner lumen of an urethral access sheath will be used under direct vision for the Sham procedure. |
Procedure: Urethral Access Sheath
The Urethral Access Sheath is introduced into the prostatic urethra to simulate the placement of the ProVee Expander.
|
| Other: Crossover ProVee Urethral Expander System All subjects shall be unblinded following the 3 month follow-up visit. Those subjects randomized to the Sham Arm will be given the opportunity to "crossover" to the ProVee Urethral Expander System. |
Device: ProVee Urethral Expander System

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Safety: Device or Procedure Related Serious Adverse Events [Procedure - 12 months]
Rate of device or procedure related serious adverse events
- Safety: Need for urinary catheterization [> 7 days from treatment - 12 months]
The rate of extended post-operative urinary catheterization for inability to void among patients treated with the ProVee device.
- Effectiveness: Reduction in BPH Symptoms compared to Sham [Procedure to 3 months]
The ProVee Treatment Group will be considered superior to the Sham Treatment Group when the mean 3-month improvement from baseline score for the IPSS symptom questionnaire demonstrates a minimum statistical margin of 25% compared to mean improvement from baseline for the Sham Treatment Group alone.
- Effectiveness: Symptoms Improvement [Procedure to 12 months]
The mean percent change in IPSS in the treatment arm is at least 30% improvement over the patient's pre-treatment baseline score.
