  • 3-15 SUI episodes per day, averaged over 3 days, in the 3 day diary
  • Serum AST and ALT within normal limits
  • Total bilirubin within normal limits
  • Positive Bladder Stress Test during screening
  • Subject agrees to not start any new treatment (medication or otherwise) that is known to affect lower urinary tract function throughout the treatment and follow up periods
  • Subject agrees to maintain on a stable dose of any medication known to affect lower urinary tract function, including but not limited to anticholinergics, tricyclic antidepressants, or alpha-adrenergic blockers, throughout the treatment and follow-up period

Exclusion criteria

  • Pelvic floor physical therapy in a clinical setting within 30 days prior to screening
  • History of pelvic radiation treatment
