A Randomized, Prospective, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Sham-Controlled Study to Assess the MORPHEUSV Radiofrequency (RF) Device in the Treatment of Female Patients With Idiopathic Overactive Bladder (OAB) With Urge Incontinence and/or Urge-Predominant Mixed Incontinence
InMode MD Ltd.
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a vaginal radiofrequency (RF) device called MORPHEUSV works to treat overactive bladder (OAB) in women. Researchers also want to learn how safe the device is for this indication. This study will include women ages 22 to 80 who have had OAB symptoms for at least 6 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the MORPHEUSV device lower the number of daily episodes of accidental urine leakage caused by urgency? Does it work better than a sham (placebo) treatment? Researchers will compare the MORPHEUSV device to a sham treatment to see how well it reduces symptoms of overactive bladder. Participants will: 1) Receive one session of either the MORPHEUSV or sham treatment. 2) Track their symptoms using a diary and questionnaires 3) Return for three to six follow-up visits over 12 months. This study is being conducted at multiple clinics in the United States.
Description
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition that significantly impacts the quality of life in women, especially those with urge urinary incontinence (UUI) or mixed incontinence with a predominant urgency component. Current treatments for OAB, including behavioral therapy and pharmacologic agents, often have limited long-term efficacy, tolerability issues, or low adherence rates. There is a significant need for alternative, non-invasive therapies that can provide symptom relief with fewer side effects. The MORPHEUSV system is a vaginally delivered radiofrequency (RF) energy device designed t…

INCLUSION CRITERIA: * Female, aged 22 to 80 years inclusive at the time of consent. * History of idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms for ≥6 months. * At least 7 episodes of urge urinary incontinence (UUI) over 3 days, as recorded in a 3-day bladder diary during screening. * Urge-predominant incontinence, defined as greater number of UUI episodes than stress urinary incontinence (SUI) episodes during screening. * Willing and able to complete the 3-day bladder diary. * Willing to discontinue OAB medications (e.g., anticholinergics, beta-3 agonists) at least 2 weeks prior to baseline tr…
Interventions
- DeviceDetrusor nerve radiofrequency ablation
A single, vaginal radiofrequency (RF) treatment. The procedure is performed with a bipolar RF applicator and requires no anesthesia. Delivered in a single session in an outpatient setting.
- DeviceSimulated (sham) detrusor nerve radiofrequency ablation
A simulated (sham) radiofrequency (RF) treatment, but with no energy delivered. The procedure mimics the appearance, duration, and positioning of the active device, without therapeutic effect.
