Q

CombAT results

DUT vs TAM time line to drop in IPSS

A

combo better than both for symptoms
combo better than TAM alone for reduction surgery and retention

TAM rapid reduction in IPSS from baseline by 5 in 3 months
DUT took 15 months to reach same drop
DUT and TAM same rapid reduction by 4 months but better than TAM alone by 9 months which was sustained over 2 years
reduction in AUR and BPH surgery with DUT or DUT and TAM vs TAM alone
but no difference in reduction retention and surgery in combo vs dut alone
RRR 65% at year 4
ARR 11.9% vs 4.2% diversing from TAM alone by 8 month

> 1200 men
ipss, uroflow and PFS
Qmax of 10mls/sec had PPV of 70% for BOO based on PFS done, sensitivity 47%
15 mls/sec specificity 38% and PPV 67%, sensitivity 82%
Thus 53% of BOO had flow rate of over 10ml/sec
18% of patients with BOO had flow rate of over 15ml/sec
