The Study To Test The Effect of Standardization Of Fluid Intake In Female Patients With Overactive Bladder

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2008-01-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if standardizing fluid intake in a clinic setting will reduce variability of individual voiding parameters and potentially serve as a way to limit patient exposure in the initial assessment of efficacy of compounds being developed for Overactive Bladder.

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: GlaxoSmithKline
• Treatments: Tolterodine Tartrate

• History of urinary retention or gastric retention

• Known history of narrow-angle glaucoma

• History of QT prolongation

• Known reduction in hepatic or renal function

• Positive for hepatitis C antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen or HIV at screening.

• Presence of urinary tract infection within 4 weeks of screening.
