The FDA has the authority to require sponsors to perform a post-approval study (or studies) at the time of approval of a premarket approval (PMA), humanitarian device exemption (HDE), or product development protocol (PDP) application. Post-approval studies can provide patients, health care professionals, the device industry, the FDA and other stakeholders information on the continued safety and effectiveness (or continued probable benefit, in the case of an HDE) of approved medical devices. This database allows you to search Post-Approval Study information by applicant or device information.

Detailed Study Protocol Parameters
Study Objectives The study design is open-label and multi-center. Cohort C included patients aged 30 and younger who are to be followed for 10 years post implant. Although there are no study hypotheses, the primary objectives of the study are: 1. To determine the duration of improvement 2. To measure various serologic values over time following exposure to bovine collagen 3. To evaluate rheumatologic history 4. To monitor adverse events
Study Population The study population is male and female patients who were 30 years or younger at enrollment and had urinary incontinence due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency and have been incontinent for at least 12 months. The device is indicated to treat urinary incontinence.
Sample Size 100 male, 100 female
Key Study Endpoints Data collection included: Effectiveness was measured by incontinence grading, described as follows: Grade 0 Continent dry, Grade 1 Patient loses urine with sudden increases in abdominal pressure but never in bed at night, Grade 2 Patient s incontinence worsens with lesser degrees of stress such as walking standing erect from a sitting position or sitting up in bed
Grade 3 Patient has total incontinence without any relation
Safety: 1. Serological hypersensitivity reaction through measurement of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). 2. Local hypersensitivity 3. Urinary retention
Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up visits every 6 months up to 10 years
Interim or Final Data Summary
Interim Results Study is completed. See Final Results
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled 62
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled Not mentioned
Patient Follow-up Rate 21%
Final Safety Findings During the study, 66.1% (N=41) of the 62 patients experienced a total of 161 adverse events.71.4% of the females and 61.8% of the malesexperienced adverse events. There was no significant difference in the AE rate of both genders. 66.7% of the dry patients and 82.4% of the improved incontinence patients and 70.6% of the not improved incontincence patients experienced adverse events. THe differences are not statistically significant.
Study Strengths & Weaknesses Low follow-up rate
Recommendations for Labeling Changes labeling should be updated to include the long-term findings, specifically that there may be a higher incidence of autoimmune responses in females.
