Brief Summary:
This is a Phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of solabegron modified release low dose or high dose tablets, compared to matched placebo, administered once daily for 12 weeks to adult female subjects with overactive bladder symptoms (frequency, urgency, and predominantly urgency incontinence) for at least 6 months.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Overactive Bladder Drug: Solabegron modified release tablets, low dose Drug: Solabegron modified release tablets, high dose Drug: Matching Placebo Phase 2

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Actual Enrollment : 1413 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Intervention Model Description: This is a Phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study. Eligible female subjects (N=1200) with symptoms of overactive bladder for at least 6 months will enter a 14-day single-blind Run-in Period. Subjects (N=375) who meet prespecified criteria based on data entered into an electronic diary over 3 days will be randomized 1:1:1 (125 subjects per arm) to receive solabegron modified release tablets, low dose or high dose, or matching placebo.

    Micturition events will be recorded by subjects in an eDiary using a smartphone device during 3-day diary periods prior to randomization and at 12 weeks.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Urinary Incontinence (1) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in mean number of urgency urinary incontinence episodes per 24 hours

  2. Urinary Incontinence (2) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Percentage change from Baseline in mean number of urgency urinary incontinence episodes per 24 hours

  3. Urinary Incontinence (3) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Proportion of subjects with no episodes of urgency urinary incontinence per 24 hours

  4. Urinary Incontinence (4) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Proportion of subjects with no episodes of urinary incontinence (urgency and non-urgency) per 24 hours

  5. Urinary Incontinence (5) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in total urinary incontinence episodes (urgency and non-urgency) per 24 hours

  6. Micturitions (1) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4 and 8 ]
    Change from Baseline in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours

  7. Micturitions (2) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Percentage change from Baseline in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours

  8. Micturitions (3) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Percentage of subjects with < 8 micturitions per 24 hours

  9. Micturitions (4) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in mean number of nocturnal voids per 24 hours

  10. Urine Void Volume (1) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in average void volume over 24 hours

  11. Urine Void Volume (2) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Percentage change from Baseline in average void volume over 24 hours

  12. Urine Void Volume (3) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in maximum individual void volume over 24 hours

  13. Urine Void Volume (4) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Percentage change from Baseline in maximum individual void volume over 24 hours

  14. Urgency (1) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Proportion of subjects with urges with a mean grade of 3 of 4 per 24 hours

  15. Urgency (2) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in mean urgency assessments per 24 hours associated with micturitions or incontinence

  16. Patient Reported Outcomes (1) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Patient Perception of Bladder Control. This patient-reported questionnaire assesses the patient's perception of current urinary problems, where higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates more severe problems.

  17. Patient Reported Outcomes (2) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in Symptom Bother Score (Overactive Bladder Questionnaire [OAB-q] short form). The OAB-q short form is completed as a 4-week recall where a higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates greater symptoms.

  18. Patient Reported Outcomes (3) [ Time Frame: Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 ]
    Change from Baseline in health-related quality of life (Overactive Bladder Questionnaire [OAB-q] short form). The OAB-q short form is completed as a 4-week recall where a higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates worse health-related quality of life.
