The open-label, single arm trial has enrolled a total of 45 patients, who were treated in Japan.
The trial’s primary objective is the percentage of patients who experience a 50% or more reduction in urinary leakage volume from baseline, as measured by the weight of unintended urinary leakage over 24 hours, at 52 weeks after treatment.
The trial, which is led by Nagoya University Department of Urology professor and chairman Dr Momokazu Gotoh, also includes a number of other key secondary endpoints.
Depending upon the success of the trial, Cytori plans to use the study results to seek approval of ECCI-50 for male stress urinary incontinence, a post-surgical complication of radical prostatectomy and surgeries for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
