Brief Summary

This study is for women diagnosed with urinary urgency incontinence (UUI) or overactive bladder (OAB). Some patients continue to have symptoms even while taking medication for OAB. The purpose of this study is to estimate the number of women who respond to a medication called mirabegron and estimate change in symptom severity over 12 weeks of therapy. A secondary goal is to correlate the female urinary microbiome (FUM) with response to treatment and change in symptom severity over 12 weeks of therapy.

Conditions

Overactive Bladder

Keywords

Urinary Urgency Incontinence; Mirabegron; Myrbetriq; Betmiga

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Response to Therapy

  Response to therapy was measured using the Patient Perception of Bladder Control (PPBC) questionnaire which measures patients' perceived bladder condition on a 6-point ordinal scale ranging from 1 (no problems at all) to 6 (many severe problems). Women reporting a PPBC score of 4 or 5 by week 12 responded to therapy. Women reporting a PPBC score of 1, 2, or 3 by week 12 did not respond to therapy.

  12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Change in Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-q) Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL)

  12 weeks

• Change in Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI)

  12 weeks

• Change in Pelvic Organ Prolapse Distress Inventory (POPDI) Score

  12 weeks

• Change in Colo-Rectal-Anal Distress Inventory (CRADI)

  12 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Mirabegron

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants received mirabegron (Myrbetriq) daily for 12 weeks
