Summary

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is as effective as medication (non-inferiority) in reducing urinary symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and to determine if PAE will result in less adverse events compared to medication in individual patients.

Participants: Study subjects will be 30 men who have taken BPH medication for at least 6 months and planning to undergo PAE. Subjects will be enrolled across 3 sites.

Procedures (methods): This will be a single arm, non-blinded study of PAE using HydroPearl Beads. Subjects will be compared to themselves. The study will involve 6 study visits: an enrollment/baseline visit, the PAE procedure, and 1 day, 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month follow-up visits. Subjects will complete questionnaires and uroflowmetry testing at baseline and each follow-up visit. Subjects will also obtain an MRI at baseline and their 6 month follow-up visit.
