Trial Outcomes & Findings for Miami Membrane for Potency (MMEP) Trial (NCT NCT02710422)

NCT ID: NCT02710422

Last Updated: 2019-09-11

Results Overview

The difference in average change in Sexual History Inventory for Men (SHIM) score, between baseline and 12 months post RARP between the membrane and control arms will be assessed as the primary endpoint. The SHIM score is measured in points on a scale: The minimum score is 5 to 7 indicating severe erectile dysfunction (ED), the maximum score is 22 to 25, indicating no ED.

Measure
Arm 1 - Amniotic Membrane Placement
Participants who receive the human amniotic membrane placement after robotic assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Participants will also undergo PSA measurement and complete the EPIC 26 and Sexual History Inventory for Men (SHIM) psychosocial questionnaires at protocol-defined intervals. Amniotic Membrane Placement: Amniotic membranes will be placed over the neurovascular bundle after extirpative RARP, and before the urethrovesical anastomosis. The membrane will cut into two longitudinal pieces and it will be placed over each neurovascular bundle separately. EPIC 26: Participants will receive EPIC 26 psychosocial questionnaire at baseline, and post-RARP at protocol-defined intervals. PSA Measurement: Measurement of serum PSA levels every three months (+ 1 month) for first year post surgery, and then annually for 5 years. SHIM: Psychosocial questionnaire administered at baseline, and post-RARP at protocol-defined intervals.
Arm 2 - No Amniotic Membrane Placement
Participants who do not receive human amniotic membrane placement after robotic assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Participants will also undergo PSA measurement and complete the EPIC 26 and Sexual History Inventory for Men (SHIM) psychosocial questionnaires at protocol-defined intervals. EPIC 26: Participants will receive EPIC 26 psychosocial questionnaire at baseline, and post-RARP at protocol-defined intervals. PSA Measurement: Measurement of serum PSA levels every three months (+ 1 month) for first year post surgery, and then annually for 5 years. SHIM: Psychosocial questionnaire administered at baseline, and post-RARP at protocol-defined intervals.
