Summary

Six hundred and thirty-six women diagnosed with urge urinary incontinence (UUI) by a three-item self-administered questionnaire (3IQ) will be randomized to 12 weeks of fesoterodine or matching placebo. The study will take place at up to 14 clinical sites in the US. All participants who complete the 12-week randomized trial will be offered open-label fesoterodine for an additional 9 months.

The hypothesis of the randomized controlled trial is that among women diagnosed with urge incontinence using the 3IQ, fesoterodine is more effective than placebo in reducing the mean number of urge incontinence episodes per day.

DRUG

Fesoterodine

Participants will be instructed to take one tablet of blinded study medication once a day, orally, for 12 weeks. They will start with a 4 mg dose of study medication and will have the option of doubling that dose after 2 or 4 weeks if they wish. At the end of the 12 week blinded trial, participants will be offered open-label fesoterodine (Toviaz™), for 9 months beginning at 4 mg with participant directed dose adjustment.

DRUG

Matching Placebo

Participants will be instructed to take one tablet of blinded study medication once a day, orally, for 12 weeks. They will start with a 4 mg dose of study medication and will have the option of doubling that dose after 2 or 4 weeks if they wish. At the end of the 12 week blinded trial, participants will be offered open-label fesoterodine (Toviaz™), for 9 months beginning at 4 mg with participant directed dose adjustment.
