Summary

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo and tamsulosin-controlled, parallel design, multinational study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Tadalafil once-a-day dosing for 12 weeks in Asian men with signs and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Asian males, with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) for at least 6 months prior to initiation and IPSS score greater than or equal to 13 at the beginning of the treatment
  • Agree not to use any other approved or experimental pharmacologic BPH, erectile dysfunction (ED) and overactive bladder (OAB) treatments at any time during the study.
  • Have not taken Finasteride or Dutasteride therapy, Anti-androgenic hormone or any other BPH therapy, ED or OAB therapy for specified duration of time prior to the beginning of the treatment

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prostate specific antigen (PSA) score beyond acceptable range defined for study at initiation
  • History of urinary retention or lower urinary tract (bladder) stones within 6 months of initiation
  • History of urinary urethral obstruction due to stricture, valves, sclerosis, or tumor at initiation
  • Clinical evidence of prostate cancer at initiation
  • Clinical evidence of any of the bladder or urinary tract conditions, which may affect lower urinary tract symptom at initiation
  • History of cardiac conditions, including Angina requiring certain treatment with nitrates, unstable angina defined for study, positive cardiac stress test before starting the study
  • History of significant central nervous system injuries (including stroke or spinal cord injury within 6 months of initiation)
  • Use of any nitrates, cancer chemotherapy, androgens, antiandrogens, estrogens, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)agonists/antagonists, or anabolic steroids at initiation
