Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia clinical trials at UCSF

2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is when the prostate gland gets bigger and can cause urinary problems. UCSF is recruiting older men for a study to see if exercise can help with these symptoms. This trial is for men who are not very active and have trouble with urination.

  • PRescription Exercise for Older Men With Urinary Disease

    open to eligible males ages 60 years and up

    This is a single-center pilot randomized controlled trial among 68 physically "inactive" older men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) attributed to benign prostatic hyperplasia (LUTS/BPH) assessing a 12-week remote exercise intervention versus health education control.

  • Group Preoperative Pelvic Floor Training for HoLEP

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    The main goal of this study is to see if group pelvic floor training before surgery can help prevent urinary incontinence after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) surgery. The study has the potential to inform preoperative intervention strategies for managing incontinence after HoLEP.
