Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the bladder wall can help people with overactive bladder that hasn't improved with standard treatments. PRP, made from a patient's own blood, is compared to Botox, a common treatment for this condition. About 48 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either PRP or Botox injections, and their symptoms will be tracked for one year to see which treatment works better and lasts longer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or botulinum toxin (Botox)
What this could lead to
If PRP works as well as Botox with fewer side effects and longer-lasting results, it could offer a new, natural treatment option for people with stubborn overactive bladder.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 48 participants. PRP is experimental for this use, and it may not prove as effective or durable as hoped. There is also a risk of side effects like infection or temporary difficulty emptying the bladder.
