InterStim is a “lifestyle-changer” for patients with OAB, expert says

According to Neuspera, results from phase 2 of the SANS-UUI trial are expected to support an application for FDA approval of the device in patients with OAB-related UUI.

“This technique is feasible, it is very well tolerated, and there’s not much of a complication rate, so it appears to be very safe,” says Amy D. Dobberfuhl, MD, MS.

The phase 2a open-label dose ascending study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of VMB-100 in female patients with moderate SUI is expected to begin in the first half of 2024.

“We need to improve the fact that 75% of these patients are untreated [or] unmanaged and frustrated,” says Alexandra Rogers, MD.

"I treat all aspects of male and female incontinence, whether this be artificial urinary sphincter, the male sling, female sling, bladder Botox, or sacral neuromodulation," said Jas Singh, MD, FRCS.

In total, the prospective SOPHIA study enrolled 6 men with stress urinary incontinence who have reduced outlet resistance due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency.
