Overactive Bladder (OAB) causes a frequent and sudden urge to urinate that may be difficult to control. One may need to pass urine many times during the day and night and may also experience unintentional loss of urine.
There are six antimuscarinic agents available for the OAB treatment worldwide- oxybutynin, tolterodine, fesoterodine, trospium, darifenacin, and solifenacin.
Overactive Bladder Emerging Drugs
Neuronox, an acetylcholine inhibitor is being developed by Medy-Tox for the treatment of the Overactive Bladder. The active ingredients involve Clostridium botulinum toxin type A. It is currently in the phase III stage of development. In September 2020, US drugmaker Allergan entered into a license agreement with South Korea’s Medytox under the terms of which, on closing, Allergan would pay Medytox an upfront of USD 65 million and Medytox would grant Allergan exclusive rights, worldwide outside of Korea, to develop and, if approved, commercialise certain neurotoxin product candidates currently in development, including a potential liquid-injectable product. In May 2020, AbbVie announced that it had finished its acquisition of Allergan plc. following receipt of regulatory approval from all government authorities needed by the transaction agreement and approval by the Irish High Court.
Research and DevelopmentPhase III NCT04113941: In August 2019, Medy-Tox initiated a phase III trial, a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-centre study to assess the efficacy and safety of Meditoxin in subject with Idiopathic Overactive Bladder. This study is for patients who have idiopathic overactive bladder symptoms. This study will assess the efficacy and safety of Neuronox against placebo. The trial is currently in the active not recruiting stage with an estimated enrollment of 216 participants and anticipated to be completed in August 2021.
Urovant Sciences is developing URO-902 for the treatment of the Overactive Bladder. URO-902 has the potential to be the first gene therapy for OAB patients. This innovative treatment has the capability to tackle an unmet need for patients who have failed oral pharmacologic therapies and are concerned with potential urinary retention or surgical interventions pertinent to existing third-line OAB treatments. It is currently in the phase II stage of development.
Research and DevelopmentPhase II NCT04211831: In December 2019, Urovant Sciences GmbH initiated a phase II trial titled “An exploratory phase IIa study evaluating the efficacy and safety of URO-902 in subjects with Overactive Bladder and Urge Urinary Incontinence”. This study will investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a single dose of URO-902 24 milligrams (mg) and 48 mg (administered via intradetrusor injection), compared with placebo, in participants with overactive bladder (OAB) and urge urinary incontinence (UUI) up to 48 weeks post-dose. The trial is currently in recruiting stage with an estimated enrollment of 78 participants and expected to be completed in September 2022.
Solabegron is a highly potent and selective beta-3 adrenoceptor agonist that is being developed for Overactive Bladder treatment. Solabegron has been tested in over 800 study subjects in a twice-a-day formulation and demonstrated efficacy in treating OAB and Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). A once-daily formulation designed to optimise patient convenience and effectiveness has been developed and is currently being evaluated in phase 2b dose-ranging clinical trials.
Research and DevelopmentPhase II NCT03594058: In July 2018, Velicept Therapeutics initiated a phase IIb, multicenter, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to assess the efficacy and safety of oral solabegron modified-release tablets in the treatment of Overactive Bladder in adult female subjects. The trial enrolled 1413 participants and was completed in May 2019.
Results Velicept Therapeutics announced that its next-generation beta-3 adrenoceptor agonist solabegron met the primary endpoint in VEL-2002, a phase IIb study in Overactive Bladder patients. In the study, twice-daily administration of solabegron showed a statistically major improvement compared to placebo at week 12, as measured by the mean change in the number of micturitions per day, the study’s primary endpoint. Solabegron also showed statistical significance across various secondary endpoints, comprising a percent reduction of urge urinary incontinence episodes, dry rate, and urgency episodes.
