Recruitment details

The trial included children from 2-16 years of age, with elevated detrusor leak point pressure associated with a known neurologic defect (e.g., spina bifida). The three age strata were 2-\<5 years, 5-\<10 years and 10-16 years of age. In this study, 231 subjects were enrolled, 162 subjects were randomised and 161 subjects were treated.

The primary endpoint was response to treatment defined as patients who decreased their detrusor leak point pressure (LPP) based upon two evaluations on the same day to less than 40 cm H2O at Week 14 (end of treatment). Detrusor leak point pressure (LPP) recorded in cm H2O was obtained using a standard urodynamic technique, a cystometrogram. On treatment (OT): Consist of all on treatment data.
