Efficacy variables: - Change from baseline of maximum urethral closure pressure, - Change from baseline of the functional urethral length, - Change from baseline of the area under the curve (AUC) of the urethral pressure curve at rest, - Change from baseline of the IEF score (a response is defined as a reduction by 50% and 75%), - Change from baseline in the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, - Change from baseline in the short pad-test results, - Change from baseline in the I-QoL score, - Examinations based on the micturition diary records, - Investigator’s Assessment by the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) score.
Safety variables: - Physical examination, - Safety laboratory tests, - AEs. |

E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Patients of ≥18 to 75 years, 2. Graded as moderate SUI at the screening visit, according to the classification based on the short pad test of Hahn and Fall (1991) Grade 2 (2 - 10 mL leakage) or Grade 3 (11 - 50 mL leakage), 3. Diagnosed with SUI, predominantly intrinsic sphincter deficiency, confirmed by urodynamic testing (filling cystometry, urethral pressure profile) at screening. Patients will only be included in case of: - missing detrusor overactivity, i.e. involuntary detrusor contraction, - a cystometric capacity >300 mL, - compliance of >25 mL/cm H2O, - post void residual urine <50 mL, - ability to void urine spontaneously, - maximum urethral closure pressure <30 cm H2O and/or pressure transmission ratio <75% in the midurethra, - fixed urethra (no or low hypermobility), 4. The SUI diagnosis has to be based on the patient’s medical history (including anamnestic complaints of involuntary leakage on effort or exertion or on sneezing or coughing) and a positive cough test (fixed volume) at the screening visit, 5. History of inefficient, insufficient, and/or refused PFMT, 6. Patients who have a negative urine test (dipstick) at visit 0, 7. Patients willing and able to comply with the study procedures, 8. Patients who are mentally competent and able to understand all study requirements, 9. Patients must agree to read and sign the Informed Consent (IC) form prior to any study- related procedures, 10. Female patients of childbearing potential willing to use acceptable methods of contraception (birth control pills, barriers, or abstinence). |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Pelvic organ prolapse >Stage II (ICS-Classification: The most distal portion of the prolapse is more than 1 cm below the plane of the hymen, but protrudes no further than two centimeters less than the total vaginal length in cm) detected during the last 12 months prior to patient inclusion in the study, 2. Patients who have a medical history of uncontrolled overactive bladder (OAB) or urinary incontinence other than SUI (including anamnestic complaints on involuntary urine leakage accompanied by or immediately preceded by urgency, not stress induced), 3. Patients who have undergone a surgery in pelvis minor due to cancer, 4. Patients who have undergone any surgery for SUI, including midurethral slings, Burch colposuspension, or bulking agents, 5. Patients diagnosed with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acute or chronic viral hepatitis HCV, acute viral hepatitis HBV, and/or active Syphilis, 6. Patients diagnosed with any kind of skeletal muscle disease, 7. Patients who, according to the clinical judgment of the investigator, are not suitable for this study, 8. Patients who are currently participating or have participated in another clinical trial (testing medical device or drug) within 30 days prior to the study begin or have previously participated in the current clinical study, 9. Patients who are pregnant, lactating, or intending pregnancy in the near future, and those of childbearing potential who are not willing to use acceptable methods of contraception (birth control pills, barriers, or abstinence), 10. Patients with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus type I or II, or suffering from diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain, 11. Patients with compromised immune systems, 12. Patients complaining about symptoms of acute cystitis or urethritis at visit 0, 13. Patients who had previously undergone radiation of the pelvis, 14. Patients with coagulopathy and/or currently being under treatment with anticoagulant drugs. However, if the anticoagulant therapy may be changed to heparin treatment prior to the therapy, the patients can be included into the study, 15. Patients with chronic pelvic pain or complaining about pelvic pain syndrome and/or dyspareunia, 16. Patients with uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma, 17. Patients with severe myocardial disorders or irregular pulse, and those with an artificial pacemaker, 18. Patients with implantations of metal components in the electrical stimulation treatment area, 19. Patients dependent from the sponsor, CRO, or the investigator (e.g. employees, relatives, etc.), 20. Patients with a malignant disease not in remission for 5 years or more, 21. Patients with any persistent chronic bacterial infections as well as local infections as indicated by a high value of CRP and confirmed by bacteriological analysis, 22. Patients with known hypersensitivity to any component of the product (autologous cells, ringer’s lactate, human serum albumin, DMSO, bovine proteins, fibroblast growth factor). |
