What the trials found For clinicians

Prostatitis: what the trials found

Several trials evaluated pharmacological interventions for managing symptoms related to chronic prostatitis and associated pain. In a Phase 3 trial, levofloxacin was assessed regarding the NIH-CPSI Total Score 2. Another Phase 3 trial demonstrated that Cernilton resulted in statistically significant symptomatic improvement in the Pain Domain of the NIH-CPSI (47 vs. 33; p<0.05) and showed improvements across secondary outcomes including the total score, micturition, life quality domains, and a decrease in urine leukocyte counts 3.

In a Phase 3 trial comparing Alfuzosin to other treatments, there were no statistically significant differences found regarding the number of participants with a decline in total score (p=0.99), global response assessment (p=0.90), or changes in subscales of the NIH-CPSI (p=0.70) 1.

Recent results — preliminary, needs further review

  • Psychosocial Treatment showed mean changes in the Genitourinary Pain Index (GUPI) at 2 months (6.6 vs. 4.8) and 5 months (8.1 vs. 6.6), though these findings are not yet corroborated 5.

For the clinician treating this condition

  • Cernilton has demonstrated significant improvement in the pain domain of the NIH-CPSI and associated secondary outcomes like micturition and life quality 3.
  • Alfuzosin did not show statistically significant differences compared to other interventions in terms of total score decline, global response, or subscale changes 1.
