Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
change in International Prostate Symptom Score from baseline on the sum of 1 to 7 questions
compare the change in International Prostate Symptom Score from baseline between the experiment group and placebo group on the sum of 1 to 7 questions that are related to voiding symptoms. Scores of 0 to 7, 8 to 19, and 20 to 35 signify mild, moderate, and severe symptoms, respectively.
day 1 (before receiving therapy) and day 85
Secondary Outcomes (8)
change in International Prostate Symptom Score on questions 1, 3, and 5 that are related to voiding symptoms, questions 2, 4, and 7 that are related to storage symptoms, and question 8 that is related to the quality of life from baseline
day 1 (before receiving therapy) and day 85
change in International Prostate Symptom Score from baseline by visit on the sum of 1 to 7 questions that are related to voiding symptoms and question 8 that is related to the quality of life
day 1 (before receiving therapy), day 15, day 29, and day 85
change in interleukin 6, interleukin 8, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 1 beta levels in expressed prostatic secretion from baseline by visit
day 1 (before receiving therapy), day 15, day 29, and day 85
change in maximum urinary flow rate from baseline.
day 1 (before receiving therapy) and day 85
change in amount of post voiding residual urine from baseline.
day 1 (before receiving therapy) and day 85
- +3 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Tamsulosin and Prosta-OK® Neo
EXPERIMENTALTamsulosin 0.2mg once daily and Prosta-OK® Neo 707mg 2 tablets twice daily for 85 days
Tamsulosin and Prosta-OK® Neo-matched placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORTamsulosin 0.2mg once daily and Prosta-OK® Neo-matched placebo 707mg 2 tablets twice daily for 85 days
Interventions
the patient planed to receive Tamsulosin 0.2mg once daily is randomized to the experiment group or placebo group. After randomization, the patient received Tamsulosin therapy with Prosta-OK® Neo or Prosta-OK® Neo-matched placebo 707mg 2 tablets twice daily for 85 days.
