This is a First in Human study to assess the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of the Zenflow Spring System in relieving the symptoms of obstructive Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
The purpose of the Zenflow Study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a novel prostatic urethral implant for the treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) that arise due to bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), secondary to the presence of Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH). Effectiveness will also be measured. It is intended that the features of the Zenflow Spring will provide an effective office-based treatment and management therapy for BPH with little or no side effects.

| Zenflow Spring System | Device | The Zenflow Spring is a nitinol urethral implant for the treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) that arise due to bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), secondary to the presence of Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH). The device is intended to be a permanent implant however it may be removed if necessary. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Device Success defined as both 1) deliverability of the implant and 2) freedom from unanticipated adverse events (UAEs) not listed in the protocol or AEs that meet the protocol definition of Serious AEs. | Frequency of Device Success is assessed by subject, for both successful device placement in the target anatomy and absence of serious or unanticipated adverse events through discharge. | Intraoperative |
| Occurrence of device and/or procedure related Adverse Events as determined by investigator and independent medical reviewer | Frequency and severity of any device or procedure related adverse events, by subject. | Intraoperative |
| Occurrence of Adverse Event specific to indwelling catheterization, descriptive analysis | Frequency of indwelling catheterization = or > 7 days following placement of the investigational device. | Seven days following implantation of the investigational device |
| Effectiveness of implant measured through symptom improvement (International Prostate Symptom Score - IPSS) | Subjects should demonstrate improvement of > or = to 3 point reduction from baseline measurement. | 3 months following device placement |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment of Sexual Health using the Sexual Health in Men (SHIM) questionnaire | Observational assessment of subject scores on SHIM at the 6 months and 12 months visit, compared to baseline. | 6 months, 12-,24-,36-, months post implantation |
| Assessment of Incontinence, using the Incontinence Severity Index (ISI) questionnaire |
