PUL/ UroLift® is an FDA-approved device for the treatment of obstructive symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This study evaluates UroLift's efficacy participants with obstructive symptoms who are candidates for radiotherapy or those who developed obstructive symptoms after radiotherapy.

Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL)

Irina Jaeger, MD

The purpose of this study is to test the use of the Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL), Urolift®, in prostate cancer (Pca) participants seeking or undergoing radiotherapy for relief of urinary obstructive symptoms.

Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL)/ UroLift® is an FDA-approved device for the treatment of obstructive symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (also called prostate gland enlargement). This study seeks to evaluate UroLift's efficacy in a unique cohort of participants with obstructive symptoms who are candidates for radiotherapy or those who developed obstructive symptoms after radiotherapy. The primary objective of this study is to achieve urinary obstructive symptom relief in prostate cancer participants undergoing radiotherapy treatment with placement of PUL. This will be quantified using primary effectiveness endpoints:

* For PUL placement post-EBRT and post-BT: ≥ 30% or ≥ 4 point International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) reduction 3 months after PUL.
* For PUL placement pre-BT: ≥ 30% or ≥ 4 point IPSS reduction 3 months after Brachytherapy (BT) from pre-PUL baseline.

The team will also assess participant outcomes with regard to International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), peak urine flow (Qmax),post-void residual (PVR), quality of life (QOL) scores, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index (BPHII) scores, Men's Sexual Health Questionnaire (MSHQ) scores, and urinary incontinence at 6 and 12 months of PUL placement post-External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT), post-BT, and pre-BT.

Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL) Pre-/Post-Radiation Treatment for Prostate Cancer: Prospective Analysis of Outcomes in Patients With Obstructive Urinary Symptoms

IPSS is an eight-question written screening tool used to screen for, rapidly diagnose, track the symptoms of, and suggest management of the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

A mean change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) will be considered effective if the following condition is met:

≥ 30% or ≥ 4 point IPSS reduction 3 months after PUL.

IPSS is an eight-question written screening tool used to screen for, rapidly diagnose, track the symptoms of, and suggest management of the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

A mean change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) will be considered effective if the following condition is met:

IPSS is an eight-question written screening tool used to screen for, rapidly diagnose, track the symptoms of, and suggest management of the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Mean change in IPSS score will be reported

Qmax is the quantity of urine measured over a specified period of time. A significant outcome would be a greater than 50% change in Qmax.

QOL score (last question in the IPSS questionnaire): If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition just the way it is now, how would you feel about that?

With answer options on a 0-6 scale with 0 being delighted and 6 being terrible.

The Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Impact Index (BPHII) is a self-administered questionnaire with four questions about urinary problems during the past month regarding physical discomfort, worry about health, how bothersome symptoms are, and whether the symptoms are interfering with doing usual activities.

Mean change in BPHII score will be reported.

Men's Sexual Health Questionnaire (MSHQ) is a 18-item questionnaire focused on assessing three core function domains (erection, ejaculation and satisfaction).

Mean change in the MSHQ ejaculation total score will be reported.

Assessment of urinary incontinence associated with the procedure measured by change number of pads used per day.

Assessment of urinary incontinence associated with the procedure as measured by quality: stress or urge.

Assessment of urinary incontinence associated with the procedure as measured by cough test.

Assessment of urinary incontinence associated with the procedure as measured by time to resolve.

Assessment of PVR, the amount of urine left in the bladder after urination.
