Summary
This trial is studying if a device called the Butterfly is better than a sham procedure at treating urinary symptoms in men.
Who is the study for?
Men aged 50-80 with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), experiencing moderate to severe urinary symptoms, and a prostate size of 30-90 ml. Candidates must not have had prior prostate surgery or suffer from conditions like uncontrolled diabetes, neurological disorders, or active bladder issues. They should not be on certain medications for BPH or have a history of prostate cancer.
What is being tested?
The Butterfly Pivotal Study is testing the effectiveness of the Butterfly Prostatic Retraction Device in improving urinary symptoms in men with BPH. Participants are randomly assigned to either receive this device treatment or undergo a sham procedure without actual treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, potential risks may include discomfort during the procedure, possible infection risk due to instrumentation, and individual reactions to the device material if there's an allergy to nickel.
