  • Must have been diagnosed by his/her doctor with overactive bladder at least 6 months ago
  • Must weigh at least 50 kg (110 lbs)
  • Must be willing and able to record information regarding bladder function into a diary (provided)
  • Must be willing and able to complete the entire course of the study

Treatment and study plan

Botulinum toxin type A

Biological

botulinum toxin Type A injected into detrusor on Day 1

Other names: BOTOX®

Placebo

Drug

Placebo (normal saline) injected into detrusor on Day 1

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Number of Urinary Urge Incontinence Episodes

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, Week 6, Week 12

    Mean number of urinary urge incontinence episodes measured over a 7-day diary prior to week 12. Urinary urge incontinence is defined as urinary leakage associated with a strong desire to urinate.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in Number of Micturitions

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, Week 6, Week 12

    Mean number of micturitions measured over a 7 day diary prior to each visit. Micturation is defined as urinating into the toilet.

  2. Change in Number of Nocturia Episodes

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    Mean number of nocturia episodes measured over a 7 day diary prior to each visit. A nocturia episode is a void (urinating into the toilet) that interrupts one's sleep.

  3. Maximum Cystometric Capacity (MCC) by Urodynamic Measurements

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    Maximum Cystometric Capacity (maximum volume that the bladder can hold) measured in mean milliliters

  4. Incontinence Quality of Life Instrument (I-QOL)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, Week 6, Week 12

    Measured on 3 domains; a 5-point scale (1-5) for each domain. Sum of the domain scores is normalized to a scale of 0-100 (100 = no impact of incontinence on daily activities, 0 = maximum impact of incontinence on daily activities). Mean scores presented.
