NCT00359905

Brief Summary

A new drug for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia is compared with placebo and tamsulosin (a drug belonging to the same therapeutic class) for to determine if it is safe and effective (the first phase of the study lasts approximately 18 weeks) and then is used for another 9 months to determine its long-term safety.
