E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the efficacy of tadalafil 5 mg once daily for 12 weeks compared with placebo in improving the IPSS in men with signs and symptoms of BPH, also referred to as BPH-LUTS (lower urinary tract symptoms). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To evaluate the: -efficacy of tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily compared with placebo in improving IPSS in men with BPH-LUTS. -efficacy of tadalafil 5 mg daily compared with placebo and tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily compared with placebo for in the treatment of men with BPH-LUTS. -efficacy of tadalafil 5 mg daily compared with placebo and tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily compared with placebo after 1 week and 4 weeks of treatment in men with BPH-LUTS as assessed by the modified IPSS (mIPSS). -efficacy of tadalafil 5 mg daily compared with placebo and tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily compared with placebo of treatment in men with BPH-LUTS and ED as assessed by the IIEF-EF Domain. -effect of tadalafil 5 mg daily compared with placebo and tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily compared with placebo in the treatment of men with BPH-LUTS as assessed by uroflowmetry measurements. -safety of tadalafil 5 mg daily and tamsulosin 0.4 mg daily in the treatment of men with BPH-LUTS. |

E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
Sample Banking Addendum, H6D-MC-LVID(2), 22 April 2009. The collected samples are banked for research to identify the genes and/or gene products and/or biochemical markers associated with diseases and/or response to clinical trial medication or other medication taken during the trial. For example, in Study H6D-MC-LVID, the relationship among naturally occurring genetic variants in candidate genes, inflammatory serum markers such as C-reactive protein, and immunomodulation through a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor such as tadalafil may be investigated. |
