New combo pill approach aims to help men with Hard-to-Treat erectile dysfunction

NCT ID NCT07391579

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether taking a daily low-dose tadalafil plus an on-demand higher-dose sildenafil works better than on-demand sildenafil alone for men with erectile dysfunction who haven't responded to standard treatments. About 500 men will take the combo or a placebo for 12 weeks, and researchers will measure changes in erectile function and hardness scores. The goal is to find a safe, effective option for those who currently have few alternatives.
