Brief Summary

There is no consensus of the therapeutic efficacy and safety between suburothelial injection and trigonal injection of botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) in treatment of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) It is unmet to clarify which injection method is superior in clinical efficacy and patient safety. This study was designed in a randomized, double-blind trial to test the therapeutic effects and adverse events between intravesical BoNTA injection into suburothelium and trigone. The results of this study might provide clinical evidence for a better therapeutic regimen of BoNT-A in the treatment of IC/PBS.

Study Arms (2)

Intravesical suburothelial injection

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients assigned for suburothelial injections received 100 U of onabotulinumtoxinA in 20 sites injected in the bladder body on treatment day and follow-up

Drug: intravesical onabotulinumtoxinA injection

Intravesical trigonal injection

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients assigned trigonal injections will receive 100U of onabotulinumtoxinA at 10 sites injected at the trigonal area (5 injections behind interureteric ridge and 5 inside the trigone) on treatment day and follow-up.

Drug: intravesical onabotulinumtoxinA injection

Interventions

Each vial of onabotulinumtoxinA will be diluted with 10 ml of normal saline, resulting in 10U onabotulinumtoxinA per 1.0 ml. Patients assigned for suburothelial BoNT-A injections received 20 injections in the bladder body whereas those assigned trigonal injections will receive 10 sites injections at the trigonal area (5 injections behind interureteric ridge and 5 inside the trigone).
