Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Currently, in clinical practice there has been no standardization in the number of injections a single dose of intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxin A is administered in. Given the increasing use of this treatment modality, the aim of this study is to compare outcomes for patients given a 100 unit dose of onabotulinumtoxin A split into 5 as compared to 20 injections for the treatment of overactive bladder or urgency urinary incontinence refractory to medical treatment.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: OnabotulinumtoxinA 100 UNT
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The intradetrusor injection of onabotulinumtoxin A for treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder and urgency urinary incontinence refractory to anticholinergic or β-agonist treatment was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2013. Since then, multiple randomized placebo-controlled trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of the treatment. Currently, Allergan, Inc. and the FDA recommend the intravesical administration of onabotulinumtoxin A with dilution to 100 units/10 mL with preservative-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, as 20 injections of 0.5 mL each. Currently, in clinical practice there has been no standardization in the number of intravesical injections, with a single dose of onabotulinumtoxin A being administered in as few as 1 injection to as many as 40 injections into the detrusor muscle. Given the increasing use of this treatment modality, the investigators aim to compare patient outcomes for patients given a 100 unit dose of onabotulinumtoxin A split into 5 as compared to the recommended 20 injections for the treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder or urgency urinary incontinence refractory to medical treatment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: 5 Injections

Participant's bladder is backfilled with 50 mL of 1% lidocaine for 15 minutes, then drained prior to procedure start. Dose of 100 units onabotulinumtoxin A with dilution to 100 Units/10 mL with preservative-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection is prepared. Cystoscopy is performed. The 23 gauge Laborie InjeTAK needle is inserted 3 mm into the detrusor. 5 injections of 2 mL each (total volume of 10 mL) in a single procedure is performed 1 cm apart in the bladder body. For the final injection, approximately 1 mL of sterile normal saline should be injected such that the remaining onabotulinumtoxin A in the needle is delivered to the bladder.

Drug: OnabotulinumtoxinA 100 UNT
Intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxin A is administered cystoscopically with 100 unit dose given as either 5 or 20 injections in a single procedure based on the arm the participant is randomized into.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Pain from procedure: score [Within 5 minutes of procedure completion]

      Pain score as rated on a 10-point visual analog scale within 5 minutes of procedure completion

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Duration of procedure [Procedure time]

      Total time of procedure defined as time cystoscope is introduced into the bladder to the time the cystoscope is removed from the bladder after completion of all injections

    2. Positive treatment response [6 weeks post-procedure]

      The percentage of patients with a positive treatment response based on answering a Global Response Assessment given 6 weeks after completion of procedure

    3. Urinary tract infections [12 weeks post-procedure]

      Percentage of patients with culture-proven post-procedure urinary tract infections within 12 weeks of procedure

    4. Urinary retention [12 weeks post-procedure]

      Percentage of patients with post-procedure urinary retention requiring clean intermittent catheterization within 12 weeks of procedure
