Brief Summary:
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a bothered symptom syndrome. Traditional medication for OAB is antimuscarinic agent. However, adverse events such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and dizziness may prohibit patient to take this drug for OAB. Intravesical botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) is a novel treatment however, BoNT-A can cause acute urinary retention and large postvoid residual. In this grant we will evaluate liquid liposome delivery of BoNT-A (Liposome encapsulated BoNT-A) into the bladder without the need for cystoscopic-guided needle injection for refractory OAB.
Detailed Description:
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a symptom syndrome characterized by urgency frequency with or without urgency incontinence, usually no metabolic or anatomical disorders can be found and it may have great impact on quality of life. Traditional medication for OAB is antimuscarinic agent which targets at the muscarinic receptors. There are several adverse events such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and dizziness related to antimuscarinics, therefore, some patients cannot tolerated this treatment. Intravesical botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) has recently emerged as novel treatment for OAB refractory to antimuscarinics, however, BoNT-A injection can cause acute urinary retention and large postvoid residual. Urinary tract infection usually occurred following large postvoid residual and urinary retention. If we can deliver BoNT-A through the urothelium to the suburothelial space, but not into the detrusor layer, we might have therapeutic effects on the urothelial sensory nerves without compromising the detrusor contractility. This treatment will enable us to prevent the undesired detrusor underactivity after BoNT-A injection, especially in the elderly patients who had impaired detrusor contractility and OAB. Liposomes are vesicles, composed of concentric phospholipid bilayers separated by aqueous compartments. Because liposomes adsorb to cell surfaces and fuse with cells, they are being used as vehicles for drug delivery and gene therapy. In this grant we will evaluate liquid liposome delivery of BoNT-A (Liposome encapsulated BoNT-A) into the bladder without the need for cystoscopic-guided needle injection for refractory OAB, and study the mechanism of action of intravesical liposomal drug delivery. If successful, we will leverage our technology transfer expertise and bring the science from the bench top to the bed side to apply for a physician sponsored Investigational New Drug (IND) trial using liposome-BoNT in patients with OAB or DO.
