The primary objective of this pivotal study is to collect data on the safety and effectiveness of the Hologic trigone RF ablation device to reduce urgency urinary incontinence. Up to 325 subjects will be enrolled with 225 randomized (2:1) and treated at up to 35 sites in the U.S. Additional sites in Canada, Australia, Europe, and other countries may also be considered. Sites outside of the U.S. cannot randomize more than 25% of subjects.

Up to 325 subjects who meet all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled and up to 225 subjects will be randomized. Subjects will be randomized to either an active arm that includes treatment with the Hologic trigone RF ablation device, or a control arm who receive a sham procedure. With a 2:1 randomization, approximately 150 subjects will be treated with the Hologic trigone RF ablation device (treatment group) and 75 sham subjects treated with the sham procedure.

Subjects will be blinded to their randomized treatment; however, due to the nature of the procedure, the treating investigator cannot be blinded to individual randomization assignments.

Subjects who are randomized to the treatment arm will be followed at 2 weeks, 1 month, 3, 6, and 12 months and every 6 months thereafter. Subjects randomized to the sham arm will be followed through the 6-month visit. Follow up of all other subjects (cross-over and treatment arm) will conclude when the last subject in randomized treatment arm reaches their 12-month visit, is withdrawn, or is determined lost to follow-up.

14. Prior or current diagnosis of polyuria or has a screening 3-day bladder diary with 24-hour total volume of > 3000 ml
15. Urinary tract infection (UTI) that is not resolved or has not been treated with antibiotics for a minimum of 3 days at the time of procedure and has not been verified by a negative urinalysis
16. Subject reports having, or has a documented history of ≥ 2 urinary tract infections (UTIs) in the last 6 months, or ≥3 UTIs in the last 12 months prior to enrollment
17. Documented, spontaneous, unprovoked urinary retention requiring any type of catheterization within the last 6 months or retention in the past for which there was no diagnosis or definitive treatment
18. Anatomical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude the introduction and/or use of the device
19. Any prolapse at or beyond the hymen
20. Subject has been diagnosed (at any time) with bladder cancer, interstitial cystitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome
21. Ureteral dysfunction, stricture or reflux including vesicoureteral reflux or a history of surgical treatment for vesicoureteral reflux
22. Any abnormality of the urinary tract including the bladder, ureters or kidneys such as but not limited to: hydroureter, hydronephrosis, ureteric reflux, Hutch diverticulum, ureterocele, duplex system, ectopic ureter, unilateral renal agenesis, ectopic kidney, cross fused ectopia, or megaureter
23. Any invasive or surgical intervention involving the kidneys, bladder, urethra, rectum or vaginal wall within the last 6 months (e.g., radiofrequency, implant, mid-urethral sling)
24. Prior history of surgical mesh in the anterior vaginal compartment to treat pelvic organ prolapse
25. History of complications with any transvaginal or mid-urethral implanted mesh
26. Prior abdominal, pelvic or vaginal surgery that may have modified the structure or location of the bladder, ureters or urinary vasculature such as bladder reconstruction, retroperitoneal dissection or cross-trigonal ureteral implantation, urinary tract fistula repair
27. Current use of OAB medications within the last 2 weeks
28. OAB symptoms previously treated with a single injection of >100 units of Onabotulinum Toxin A (Botox®)
29. OAB symptoms previously treated with Sacral Neuromodulation (SNM) and/or PTNS
30. Previous pelvic irradiation
31. Complete or total incontinence (i.e. the continuous or total loss of urinary control)
32. Any functional incontinence (incontinence caused by a physical or mental impairment that keeps a subject from reaching the bathroom in time to urinate)

The study will enroll adult (≥18 years of age), female subjects with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) who are found to be intolerant of, contraindicated for, or have failed drug therapy and are not on medications for their condition.

The device shall be assembled and maintained in a sterile environment outside the view of the subject during procedure preparation and treatment. The treating investigator, applicable nursing and site staff, and any representatives supporting the procedure should refrain from discussing the device or treatment assignment during the procedure and applicable follow-up visits. The sham procedure will mimic the Hologic trigone RF ablation device procedure to maintain subject blinding and provide the most accurate assessment of control data while minimizing risk to the subject. Energy will not be delivered to the tissue when each sham "ablation" is started.To be comparable to the Hologic trigone RF ablation device procedure, the simulated ablation procedure will need to be repeated as many times as necessary to cover the area of the trigone as is done in the treatment arm.
