Brief summary

This is a safety and efficacy study of LiRIS® in females with interstitial cystitis with Hunner's lesions.

Interventions

LiRIS® is a drug-device combination product which is placed in the bladder during cystoscopy and remains in the bladder, gradually releasing lidocaine until removed from the bladder via cystoscopy.

LiRIS placebo is a drug-device combination product, matching the LiRIS® which is placed in the bladder during cystoscopy, remains in the bladder until removed from the bladder via cystoscopy

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in the Daily Average Bladder Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)Baseline (Day -7 to Day 0) to Week 4The participant recorded their daily bladder pain score over the previous 24-hour period on a 7-day pain assessment tool as measured by an NRS on an 11-point scale where 0=no pain to 10=worst pain imaginable. The daily pain scores over the 7-day period were averaged. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with Baseline value as a covariate and treatment group and stratification (baseline bladder pain NRS: ≤ 5 or \> 5) as factors was used for analysis.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in the Number of Hunner's LesionsBaseline (Day 0) to Week 4During each cystoscopy, the investigator counted the number of lesions visible while performing the bladder scan. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement (less lesions). An ANCOVA model with Baseline value as a covariate and treatment group and stratification (baseline bladder pain NRS: ≤ 5 or \> 5) as factors was used for analysis.
Change From Baseline in Composite Score of Hunner's Lesions Calculated Based on Number, Size, and Severity of LesionsBaseline (Day 1) to Week 4A standardized video capture protocol for bladder mapping was followed to assess any changes in the number, the size and the severity, of lesions during the study as a result of treatment. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

The daily pain scores over the 7-day period were averaged. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Time frame: Baseline (Day -7 to Day 0) to Week 4

Population: Modified Intent-to-Treat population, all participants who were randomized and received Treatment 1, with data available for analysis.

Change From Baseline in Composite Score of Hunner's Lesions Calculated Based on Number, Size, and Severity of Lesions

A standardized video capture protocol for bladder mapping was followed to assess any changes in the number, the size and the severity, of lesions during the study as a result of treatment. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 4

Population: Data for the planned composite Hunner's Lesions score were supposed to be generated based on digital images by a software algorithm, but the system never worked and no data were generated.
