Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To demonstrate the similarity in safety profiles between PSD506 and placebo as assessed by a urodynamic measure of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To measure the change in Post Void Residual volumes (PVR) and other urodynamic parameters 2. To obtain a preliminary assessment of efficacy by measuring the change in International Prostatic Symptom Score (IPSS) from baseline 3. To demonstrate the overall safety of PSD506 in this subject population
