This is the first report of a pre-specified interim analysis of the extension trial, with evaluation of efficacy and safety over repeated onabotA tx. METHODS On completion of the pivotal studies, pts could enter a 3-year extension study and receive multiple tx of intradetrusor onabotA. Data were integrated across studies; pts receiving ≥1 onabotA tx in the evaluation period were analyzed by onabotA tx cycle (up to 5 cycles). Change from baseline (BL; before any tx) at week (wk) 12 in OAB symptoms, proportion of pts with a positive tx response (greatly improved or improved) on the tx benefit scale (TBS), duration of effect (Kaplan-Meier analysis of time to pts' request for re-tx), and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) were assessed. Adverse events (AEs) and use of clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) due to elevated post void residual urine (PVR) were also evaluated. RESULTS A total of 825, 558, 253, 113, and 47 pts received 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 onabotA 100U tx, respectively, in this ongoing study. UI episodes/day were consistently reduced compared to BL; reductions at wk 12 were −3.25, −3.70, −3.49, −2.79, and −2.55 in onabotA 100U tx cycles 1 through 5. Continued reductions vs BL were also seen in other OAB symptoms over repeated tx cycles. A high proportion of pts reported a positive tx response on TBS during each tx cycle (73.9, 78.9, 77.3, 72.9, and 77.1% at wk 12 in onabotA 100U cycles 1 through 5). A consistent duration of effect was observed; median time to request for re-tx was 24.0, 25.7, and 24.1 wks for cycles 1, 2, and 3 (too few pts had yet requested re-tx in cycles 4 and 5 for an accurate estimate). Large improvements from BL in HRQOL that exceeded the minimally important difference were seen following each onabotA tx. The most common AE in each tx cycle was uncomplicated urinary tract infection (26.9, 24.2, 24.5, 20.4, and 14.9%). The proportion of pts requiring CIC due to elevated PVR was 4.6, 4.1, 4.7, 5.3, and 2.1% in onabotA 100U cycles 1 through 5. No change in the AE profile was observed. CONCLUSIONS Repeated onabotA tx in OAB pts with UI inadequately managed with ACHs showed sustained improvements in OAB symptoms, pt perception of improvement in their condition, and HRQOL. A consistent safety profile was also seen, with no new safety signals. © 2013 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 189Issue 4SApril 2013Page: e559-e560 Peer Review Report Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2013 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Victor W.
