NCT00547378

Brief Summary

The purposes of this study are:

  1. 1.To provide evidence from a randomized controlled trial that InterStim Therapy provides better relief of symptoms of OAB than standard medical treatments in current use.
  2. 2.To fulfill the requirements of the FDA-mandated post-approval study of the safety of the tined lead using a minimally invasive approach.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Randomized Cohort: OAB Therapeutic Response

    To demonstrate that the OAB therapeutic response rate at 6 months is greater for the InterStim therapy group than for the Standard Medical Therapy group. OAB therapeutic response rate was calculated as number of subjects with OAB therapeutic response divided by number of subjects included in the analysis. OAB therapeutic response was defined as: * at least 50% or greater improvement in average leaks/day from baseline for subjects with urinary incontinence at baseline or * at least 50% improvement in average voids/day from baseline or a return to normal voiding frequency (\<8 voids/day) for subjects with urgency-frequency at baseline.

    6 months

  • All Implanted Cohort: Adverse Events Related to the Tined Lead That Require Surgery

    To demonstrate that the upper bound of the 95% CI for the cumulative five-year rate of adverse events related to the tined lead that require surgery is less than 0.33. Adverse events on or after neurostimulator implant with an etiology of lead and with an intervention of surgical intervention/revision are the event of interest.

  • Be able to consent to participate by signing the Informed Consent
  • Be willing and able to attend visits and comply with the study protocol including adequate operation of equipment
  • Have failed or are not a candidate for more conservative treatment (e.g. pelvic floor training, biofeedback, behavioral modification)
  • Have failed or could not tolerate (stopped taking medication due to lack of efficacy or intolerable side effects) at least one anticholinergic or antimuscarinic medication AND have at least one anticholinergic or antimuscarinic medication not yet attempted
  • Have been on current regiment of OAB medications or have not been on any OAB medications, for at least 4 weeks prior to beginning the baseline voiding diary

You may not qualify if:

  • Have knowledge of planned MRIs, diathermy, microwave exposure, high output ultrasonic exposure, or RF energy exposure
  • Have urinary tract mechanical obstruction such as benign prostatic hypertrophy, cancer, or urethral stricture
  • Have symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI)
  • Have implantable neurostimulators, pacemakers, or defibrillators
  • Have primary stress incontinence or mixed incontinence where the stress component overrides the urge component
  • Have had treatment of urinary symptoms with botulinum toxin therapy in the past 12 months
  • Be a woman who is pregnant or planning to become pregnant or are a woman of child-bearing potential who is not using a medically-acceptable method of birth control

Limitations and Caveats

Predominantly female and Caucasian subjects could detract from generalizability. Centers followed individual protocols for peri-op antibiotics, lead choice, and procedure techniques. Lack of standardization may have impacted overall study results.
