HAMBURGO, Alemania, 14 de julio de 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Olympus Corporation, una compañía mundial de tecnología médica, anunció la publicación de los datos del estudio que demuestran que el tratamiento mínimamente invasivo iTind™ proporciona un alivio duradero de más de cuatro años para las personas que padecen los síntomas del agrandamiento de la próstata, también conocido como HPB.

Continue Reading
The iTind™ procedure involves the placement of a temporarily implanted nitinol device that reshapes the prostatic urethra without burning or cutting out the prostate. The device remains in place for five to seven days, and upon removal, patients experience rapid and effective relief of their benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms.
The iTind™ procedure involves the placement of a temporarily implanted nitinol device that reshapes the prostatic urethra without burning or cutting out the prostate. The device remains in place for five to seven days, and upon removal, patients experience rapid and effective relief of their benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms.

Los datos del estudio a largo plazo demuestran que el procedimiento iTind conduce a una reducción significativa y duradera de los STUI (síntomas del tracto urinario inferior) relacionados con la BPH y mejora el IPSS (Puntuación internacional de síntomas prostáticos) y la CdV (calidad de vida) durante más de 50 meses a 79 meses (6,6 años) después del tratamiento.1

Debido a la pandemia de COVID-19, los pacientes no pudieron ser examinados en persona para realizar pruebas funcionales en el seguimiento de más de 48 meses. Por lo tanto, el protocolo se adaptó para que los datos sobre el alivio de los síntomas a largo plazo (IPSS), la mejora de la calidad de vida y la necesidad de retratamiento pudieran recopilarse telefónicamente.

Resumen de los resultados del estudio a largo plazo

  • 50 pacientes continuaron con el estudio multicéntrico prospectivo de un solo grupo más allá de los 36 meses posteriores al tratamiento. El estudio analiza los resultados de 41 de los 50 pacientes más allá de los 48 meses. Nueve de los 50 no estaban disponibles para el seguimiento: cinco pacientes se perdieron durante el seguimiento; dos pacientes fallecieron sin relación con la colocación del dispositivo iTind; y dos pacientes (seguimiento de 36 a 48 meses) requirieron retratamientos quirúrgicos (una resección transuretral de próstata, una enucleación de próstata con láser de tulio).
  • El tratamiento con el dispositivo iTind mostró una mejora significativa en los síntomas, con una reducción del IPSS del 45,3 % y una reducción del IPSS-QoL del 45,1 % desde el inicio hasta 79 meses después del procedimiento (ambos P<0,0001)
  • No se informaron complicaciones posoperatorias tardías más allá de los 36 meses de seguimiento, y ningún paciente requirió medicación adicional.
  • La tasa de retratamiento quirúrgico después de 36 meses fue del 4 %, y la tasa total acumulada de retratamiento desde el inicio hasta los 79 meses fue del 11,1 %.

El estudio fue financiado por Medi-Tate, una filial de propiedad total de Olympus Corporation.
