Brief Summary:
An international, multi-center, single arm, prospective clinical study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the Coloplast Altis single incision sling system for females with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Stress Urinary Incontinence Device: Altis® Single Incision Sling System (SIS) Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
An international, multi-center, single arm, prospective clinical study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the Coloplast Altis single incision sling system for females with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Primary Objective: Improvement in continence measured by 24 hour pad weight test with at least a 50% reduction in weight from baseline at 6 months. Secondary Objectives: Cough stress test results at 6 months; Subject QoL as measured by validated questionnaires: PGI-I, improvements in UDI-6 and IIQ-7 scores from baseline at 6 months, 3 day voiding diary improvement from baseline at 6 months; Device and procedure related adverse events. Brief Entrance Criteria: Adult female with confirmed SUI through cough stress test or urodynamics; Failed two non-invasive incontinence therapies; No prior surgical SUI treatment; No prolapse POP-Q Stage 2 or higher; No concurrent pelvic floor procedure; No urge predominant incontinence; No incontinence due to neurological disorder/disease; No PVR > 100cc; and, No contraindication to the surgical procedure. Study visits will take place at baseline, implant/hospitalization, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years post operatively. This study will enroll up to 113 subjects at up to 17 investigative sites in the US and Internationally.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Altis® SIS
Subjects enrolled with Altis® SIS
Device: Altis® Single Incision Sling System (SIS)
The Altis® SIS is a permanently implantable synthetic sling for females placed at the mid-urethra to provide a scaffold for tissue in-growth and support for stress urinary incontinence.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Reduction in 24-hour Pad Weight From Baseline to 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Primary endpoint defined as at least a 50% reduction in 24-hour pad weight from baseline to 6 months (including dry as defined as a pad weight of less than 1.3 grams during the 6-month test), in which the percent of subjects with at least 50% reduction in 24-hour pad weight is compared to a performance goal of 50%.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Negative Cough Stress Test at 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months ]

    Endpoint defined as a negative result at 6 months, as measured by the Cough Stress Test (CST), in which the percent of subjects with a negative CST is compared to a performance goal of 66%.

    The cough stress test was completed with the subject in the lithotomy and standing positions, filling bladder to maximum capacity with normal saline. The subject was then asked to cough 10 times and any leakage from the urethra was considered a positive test.


  2. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Improvement in Incontinence Via 3-Day Voiding Diary From Baseline to 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months (compared to baseline) ]

    Endpoint defined as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6-months, as measured by 3-Day Voiding Diary, in which the percent of subjects with at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6 months is compared to a performance goal of 50%.

    Subjects completed a 3-Day Voiding Diary of controlled urinations and the number and amount of leaks experienced.


  3. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Improvement in UDI-6 Score From Baseline to 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Endpoint defined as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6 months, as measured by validated Urinary Distress Inventory Short Form (UDI-6), in which the percent of subjects with at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6 months is compared to a performance goal of 50%.

  4. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Improvement in IIQ-7 From Baseline to 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Endpoint defined as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6 months, as measured by validated Incontinence Impact Questionnaire Short Form (IIQ-7), in which the percent of subjects with at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 6 months is compared to a performance goal of 50%.

  5. Percentage of Patients Responding "Very Much Better" or "Much Better" on PGI-I at 6 Months [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    Success defined as a response of "Very Much Better" or "Much Better" at 6 months, as measured by validated Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I).

  6. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Reduction in 24-hour Pad Weight From Baseline to 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Success is defined as at least a 50% reduction in 24-hour pad weight from baseline to 12 months using the 24 hour pad weight test.

  7. Percentage of Participants With Negative Cough Stress Test at 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 months (compared to baseline) ]

    Success defined as a negative result at 12 months, as measured by the Cough Stress Test (CST).

    The cough stress test was completed with the subject in the lithotomy and standing positions, filling bladder to maximum capacity with normal saline. The subject was then asked to cough 10 times and any leakage from the urethra was considered a positive test.


  8. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Improvement in UDI-6 Score From Baseline to 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Success defined as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 12 months, as measured by validated Urinary Distress Inventory Short Form (UDI-6)

  9. Percentage of Participants With at Least 50% Improvement in IIQ-7 From Baseline to 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 months (compared to baseline) ]
    Success defined as at least a 50% improvement from baseline to 12 months, as measured by validated Incontinence Impact Questionnaire Short Form (IIQ-7)

  10. Percentage of Patients Responding "Very Much Better" or "Much Better" on PGI-I at 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
    Success defined as a response of "Very Much Better" or "Much Better" at 12 months, as measured by validated Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I).
