Abstract/OtherAbstract:
BACKGROUND: Botulinum toxin type A (BoNTA) has been reported to be effective for treatment of patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) refractory to anticholinergic agents. However, in most of the studies, the efficacy was associated with concomitant use of anticholinergics.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of BoNTA and compare two different doses in patients with NDO without concomitant anticholinergics.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Between 2004 and 2006, adults with NDO refractory to anticholinergics or discontinued anticholinergics due to adverse events or contraindications from four different French clinical centres were included in a prospective, randomised, double-blind, comparative trial. Inclusion criteria were urinary incontinence (UI) resulting from NDO that could not be managed with anticholinergics. Patients with bladder cancer, lithiasis, or urinary infection were excluded.
INTERVENTION: Patients were randomised to receive an intradetrusor injection of 500 U or 750 U of BoNTA.
MEASUREMENTS: The initial evaluation (ie, clinical and urodynamic variables and quality of life [QoL]) was repeated at days 30, 90, 180, and 360. Primary outcome was complete continence rate at day 30. Secondary outcomes were cumulative incontinence rate, reappearance of leakages, pad usage, urodynamics, and QoL.
RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Seventy-seven patients received 500 U (n=39) or 750 U (n=38) of BoNTA and were included in the full analysis set for efficacy analysis. Complete continence at day 30 was observed in 22 patients (56.4%) and 28 patients (73.7%) receiving 500 U or 750 U of BoNTA, respectively (p=0.056; one-sided χ(2) test to compare to α=0.025). The median delay in the reappearance of leakages was 168 d. Monotherapy of BoNTA significantly improved UI in patients with NDO. Although there was a trend towards a greater improvement with 750 U of BoNTA, no statistically significant differences in terms of clinical and urodynamic variables and QoL were found between the treatment groups. Tolerability was excellent and equivalent for both doses.
CONCLUSIONS: Monotherapy of BoNTA at Dysport (Ipsen, Brisbane, CA, USA) doses of 500 U or 750 U seems to be effective and well tolerated in patients with NDO.
