Summary

This study will evaluate the effect of pessary therapy, with and without Solifenacin (Vesicare), on symptoms of over active bladder and bladder function in women with overactive bladder symptoms and pelvic organ prolapse.

Study Hypotheses:

Null hypothesis, HO: Reduction of anterior vaginal wall prolapse and treatment with solifenacin does not improve overactive bladder symptoms more than reduction of anterior vaginal wall prolapse and placebo.

Alternate hypothesis, HA: Reduction of anterior vaginal wall prolapse and treatment with solifenacin does improve overactive bladder symptoms more than reduction of anterior vaginal wall prolapse and placebo.

Conditions

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Interventions

DRUG

Solifenacin

There will be a two-week pessary run-in prior to randomization. If the subject completes the run-in period with no adverse reactions to the pessary, she will come in to the office for a randomization visit. She will be randomized to receive either 5 mg/day (one 5 mg tablet QD) of placebo or 5 mg/day (QD) of solifenacin for 12 weeks. At the end of week 6, patients will be assessed in the office. A standardized medication response questionnaire will be used to assess each subject's response to either the placebo or the solifenacin 5 mg. If the response is not adequate, the dose will be increased. Women whose symptoms have not improved since baseline will have their medication or placebo doses increased to 10 mg daily.
