| Main Objective: The primary endpoint of this study is the response rate according to the IPS score based on the comparison of the results of the baseline visit (V2) and after 12 months (V7);Secondary Objective: ·Change in IPSS from baseline at randomization visit (V2) to the end of treatment after 12 months at visit 7 ·Development of IPSS over time ·Development of irritative and obstructive symptoms over time ·Changes of urodynamical examinations by measuring maximum urinary flow (Qmax) ·Changes of urodynamical examinations by measuring residual urinary volume ·Frequency of AUR ·Change in QoL ·Change in prostatic volume ·Adverse events ·Premature study withdrawals ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this study is the response rate according to the IPS score based on the comparison of the results of the baseline visit (V2) and after 12 months (V7). | — |
