Editor's Notes
At the ICS meeting in Seoul Korea in September 2001, a consensus definition of OAB was derived This definition focuses on the symptoms of OAB rather than on urodynamic parameters and is much more clinically useful for physicians, because most do not do urodynamic studies on patients with OAB In addition, it improves communication between physicians and their patients, since the definition includes terms that are much more intuitive and less likely to confuse or even alarm the patient (many patients have been quite bothered with the old term “unstable” bladder) Thus, the new definition encompasses all of the important clinical aspects of OAB, without using terminology that is only interpretable by a specialist in urology

This slide shows the overlap of symptoms for OAB Patients with OAB experience urgency with or without urge incontinence (in fact, only 30% of people with OAB have urge incontinence) Frequency and nocturia are usually associated with urgency; however; these symptoms occurring individually do not constitute a diagnosis of OAB Some women may experience mixed symptoms of stress incontinence and OAB; stress symptoms often resolve with OAB therapy
Why should physicians care about OAB? There are several compelling reasons. More patients have OAB than you realize. Overall, 1 out of 6 adults over 40 years of age in Europe has OAB. In France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Japan, and the United States, the prevalence of OAB ranges from 11% to 22%.

Presented at: Annual Meeting of the International Continence Society; October 5-9, 2003; Florence, Italy.
Psychological —People with OAB often feel guilty about their symptoms, and some become depressed. The embarrassment of leaking or smelling of urine leads to a loss of self-respect and dignity. Social —Overactive bladder sufferers might restrict social activity outside the home for fear of leaking urine or because of the frequent need to use a toilet. Domestic —Some individuals with OAB use disposable pads on the bed during the night or undergarments for incontinence. These items can be costly and are not covered by medical insurance. Occupational —Overactive bladder may lead to decreased productivity in the workplace. Some patients may avoid going to work for fear of leaking urine. Sexual —Women with overactive bladder have reported avoiding dating and sexual intimacy because of overactive bladder symptoms and fear of leaking urine. Physical —Some physical activities like exercising might be limited because of the frequent need to urinate or fear of leaking urine.
Women with urge incontinence have an increased diurnal and nocturnal voiding Urge incontinence urgency to rush to bathroom Inability of older women to divide attention.
The reasons women seek care for symptoms of pelvic floor disorders vary by age. According to a study within the Kaiser Permanente Health Care program in Southern California, which evaluated the reasons for pelvic floor disorders among 2070 women seeking care, stress urinary incontinence (SUI) was significantly more common among younger women than older women (78% vs 57%, respectively; P .05). Detrusor instability urge urinary incontinence (UUI) was more common among older vs younger women (67% vs 56%, respectively; P < .05), as was intrinsic sphincter deficiency (5.7% vs 0%, respectively; P < .05). Symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse occurred with equal frequency in older and younger women. Luber KM, Boero S, Choe JY. The demographics of pelvic floor disorders: current observations and future projections. Am J Obstet Gynecol. 2001 ;184:1496-1503.
In most cases, a diagnosis of OAB can be made based on patient history, symptoms assessment, physical examination , and urinalysis These assessments are usually sufficient to initiate noninvasive therapy provided you have ruled out the following: Local pathological factors such as infection, bladder stones, bladder tumor/CIS, interstitial cystitis Metabolic factors such as diabetes or polydipsia Medications that may cause OAB symptoms such as diuretics, narcotics, antidepressants, hypnotics, analgesics, sedatives, OTC sleep aids and cold remedies Other factors such as pregnancy or psychologic issues Reasons to refer to a specialist include: Evidence of difficulty in emptying Recurrent urinary tract infection Hematuria Prostate problems Symptomatic prolapse Unsuccessful prior treatment Unsuccessful prior surgery Planned surgery Radical pelvic surgery
The challenge rests with primary care physicians to dispel the fears and misconceptions that keep many patients, especially female patients, from seeking treatment for bladder symptoms. Physicians can detect urinary symptoms in reluctant patients during routine medical examination. Additionally, simple questions (such as those listed on the slide) can be used to elicit information needed for diagnosis.
This slide and the next list classes of medications that have been shown to influence LUT function.
In women, a physical examination can rule out several possible causes of LUTS, including Atrophic vaginitis Estrogen deficiency Pelvic floor dysfunction Prolapse Potentially serious pathologic conditions, such as malignancy Patients with prolapse or other potentially serious conditions should be referred to the appropriate specialist for further evaluation.
Urinalysis is an essential component of the patient workup and is used to rule out conditions that may be responsible for LUTS. Laboratory testing on blood is also essential. A prostate-specific antigen test should be administered to adequately informed men older than 50 years of age in accordance with the American Urological Association guidelines. Fantl JA, et al. Urinary incontinence in adults: acute and chronic management. Rockville, MD: US Department of Health and Human Services, Agency for Healthcare Policy and Research; 1996. AHCPR publication 96-0686.
Specifically, the appropriate laboratory tests should rule out urinary tract infection, sexually transmitted diseases, diabetes, renal disease (including kidney stones), and more serious conditions, such as malignancies. Patients with tumors, kidney stones, or other potentially serious conditions should be referred to the appropriate specialist for further evaluation.
Recent data from the NOBLE Program revealed the prevalence of OAB in the United States. A total of 5.1 million people with incontinence have SUI, 6.9 million have UUI, and 5.5 million have MUI (both SUI and UUI). Stewart WF, Van Rooyen JB, Cundiff GW, et al. Prevalence and burden of overactive bladder in the United States. World J Urol . 2003;20:327-336.
OAB is associated with involuntary detrusor contractions. Detrusor instability can cause symptoms of urgency of the sudden loss of urine (UUI). Conversely, SUI can be caused by urethral hypermotility; significant displacement of the urethra and bladder neck during exertion and increased abdominal pressure; or urethral sphincter weakness, in which the bladder sphincter cannot generate enough resistance to retain urine during stress maneuvers. In women, urethral sphincter weakness can occur after trauma, hypoestrogenism, aging, or surgical procedures. Fantl JA, et al. Urinary incontinence in adults: acute and chronic management. Rockville, MD: US Department of Health and Human Services, Agency for Healthcare Policy and Research; 1996. AHCPR publication 96-0686.
This slide demonstrates the findings that differentiate OAB from SUI and patients with mixed symptoms or MUI. Pertinent points include the following: Urgency and frequency are associated with OAB and MUI, but not with SUI SUI and MUI share symptomatology of leakage during physical activity The amount of urinary leakage typically is much greater in OAB than in SUI Patients with OAB rarely have enough time to reach a toilet compared with patients with SUI, but this varies in patients with MUI Nocturia is more closely associated with OAB than with SUI, and may be present in patients with MUI Abrams P, Wein AJ.

The NOBLE study identified respondents with incontinence based on telephone survey responses. Further investigation (a nested case-controlled study) was conducted on respondents who reported symptoms of OAB. Respondents completed multiple questionnaires (OAB-q, the Medical Outcomes Study [MOS] Short-Form-36 [SF-36], the MOS Sleep Scale, and the Center for Epidemiological Studies—Depression [CES-D] scale) and were categorized according to the primary cause of incontinence: UUI, SUI, or MUI. One hundred seventy-one respondents reported incontinence (UUI: 69; SUI: 62, MUI: 40). Of the respondents, 82.5% were women and the average age was 55.9 years. The findings showed OAB-q subscale scores were significantly worse P < .01) among those with MUI than among those with SUI. In terms of symptom bother, MUI was reported as most bothersome, followed by UUI; respondents with SUI were bothered the least. Coyne KS, Zhou Z, Thompson C, Versi E.

Optional Slide Behavioral modification includes patient education, timed or delayed voiding, pelvic floor exercises, and reinforcement Pelvic floor exercises have been shown to be very useful for women with primarily stress incontinence
Bladder Training Bladder training focuses on modifying bladder function by reviewing the bladder diary; the voiding interval should be increased gradually by 15- to 30-minute intervals based on the voiding pattern, and the patient should be taught bladder coping strategies Bladder training is used primarily for urge incontinence, urgency, and frequency Bladder training can be very effective, but it requires ongoing commitment by the patient
It has been shown that behavioral therapy alone can improve the symptoms of OAB However, it is often difficult to achieve high compliance with behavioral therapies, and optimal success is dependent on how intense the program is and, in many cases, also requires a high input of caregiver time Studies have shown that the best outcomes are achieved with a combination of pharmacologic and behavioral therapy
Currently, antimuscarinic agents are the gold standard for the pharmacologic treatment of OAB Antimuscarinic agents inhibit involuntary bladder contractions and increase bladder capacity, thereby relieving the symptoms of OAB, including urgency, frequency, and urge urinary incontinence However, some antimuscarinic agents, particularly the older ones, are associated with typical anticholinergic side effects that may limit treatment
This is a “build” slide showing the distribution of peripheral cholinergic (ie, muscarinic) receptors throughout the body Muscarinic receptors are located in the CNS, iris and ciliary body, lachrymal gland, salivary glands, heart, gallbladder, stomach, colon, and bladder Agents that are selective for the bladder are preferable over agents that may potentially target other regions of the body Blockade of muscarinic receptors outside the bladder may result in undesired side effects such as dry mouth (the most common side effect), constipation, and CNS side effects (such as dizziness, somnolence, and cognitive impairment), and effects on the stomach and eyes
In broad terms, the ideal muscarinic agent would provide efficacy by inhibiting involuntary bladder contractions, while having no adverse effect on normal bladder contractions be selective for the bladder over other organs innervated by the parasympathetic system have durable effects, ie, have effects that do not diminish over time Clinically, the ideal agent would provide a balance between efficacy, tolerability, and compliance (persistency); together, these factors comprise “clinical effectiveness”
The inclusion criteria consisted of age and OAB symptomatology requirements. Prior therapy was not considered. Van Kerrebroeck P, Kreder K, Jonas U, Zinner N, Wein A. Tolterodine once-daily: superior efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of the overactive bladder. Urology. 2001;57:414-421.

The registration trial was a 12-week multinational study comparing Detrol ® LA 4 mg once daily, and Detrol ® 2 mg twice daily, with placebo in 1,529 patients. Compared with placebo, Detrol ® LA and Detrol ® were significantly more effective in improving: Incontinence episodes/week Total micturitions/24 hours Mean volume voided/micturition Incontinence pad usage/24 hours For the primary efficacy parameter, Detrol ® LA was also shown to provide significantly greater improvement compared with Detrol ® . In addition, both active treatment groups were associated with positive tolerability and safety profiles. Van Kerrebroeck P, Kreder K, Jonas U, Zinner N, Wein A. Tolterodine once-daily: superior efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of the overactive bladder. Urology . 2001;57:414-421. Key Messages: Detrol ® LA was efficacious in improving all symptoms of OAB Detrol ® LA exhibited a positive tolerability and safety profile Detrol ® LA was shown to produce significantly better improvements in efficacy and tolerability compared with Detrol ®
After completion of the phase 3, double-blind, randomized trial of Detrol ® LA, a 12-month open-label extension was performed. This extension was not controlled or randomized. The 1,337 patients who completed the 12-week double-blind phase of the trial were eligible to participate in the open-label extension. Of these patients, 1,077 chose to continue tolterodine treatment; 759 completed the 12-month extension. The primary end point was safety and tolerability of Detrol ® LA, 4 mg qd, and secondary end points were efficacy and persistency. The majority of the participants were women (82.3%), and the mean age was 60.3 years. Kreder K, Mayne C, Jonas U.

Of the 1,077 patients who chose to remain on Detrol ® LA, 1,075 received treatment and were included in the safety population. Of these patients, 759 completed the 12-month extension. Diary data reported indicate that patients who remained on Detrol ® LA maintained the level of efficacy achieved at 12 weeks through 1 year of treatment. Kreder K, Mayne C, Jonas U.

The 12-month open-label extension of the phase 3 trial of Detrol ® LA showed that treatment was well tolerated. Efficacy was maintained for at least 1 year with continued Detrol ® LA treatment. Improvements from baseline in all micturition variables were comparable to those observed at the completion of the 12-week double-blind phase. Seventy-one percent of patients entering the long-term, open-label phase of the pivotal trial were still on Detrol ® LA at 12 months. Kreder K, Mayne C, Jonas U.

This slide shows the reduction in urge incontinence episodes for naïve and experienced patients at each time point (week 1, week 4, and week 12) There is a substantial reduction from baseline in urge incontinence episodes after only 1 week of treatment in both groups, with further reductions observed at weeks 4 and 12 The reduction in urge incontinence was rapid and significant, and showed a continued benefit over time. These swift results encourage patients to remain on therapy. Median percent reduction from baseline 1 week 4 weeks 12 weeks Naïve patients -61.5 -80.0 -85.7 Experienced patients -53.9 -75.0 -75.0
This slide shows the reduction in micturition frequency (micturitions/24h) for naïve and experienced patients at each time point (week 1, week 4, and week 12) There is a substantial reduction from baseline in micturition frequency after only 1 week of treatment in both groups, with further reductions observed at weeks 4 and 12 Median percent reduction from baseline 1 week 4 weeks 12 weeks Naïve patients -17.1 -25.6 -28.6 Experienced patients -13.9 -20.0 -21.3
Percentage of Patients and Physicians Reporting Positive Treatment Benefit at 1 Week Approximately 85% of both naïve and previously treated patients reported benefit from treatment after only 1 week Similarly, physicians independently rated the perception of treatment as beneficial in approximately 85% of patients at 1 week in naïve and experienced patients Yes/little vs. yes/lot vs. none
This slide summarizes the results and conclusions from STAT OAB symptoms, as measured by micturition diary parameters, were improved after 1 week of treatment and showed further improvements throughout the 12-week study; these results are consistent with patient perception of treatment benefit Both patients and physicians had a high perception of treatment benefit with tolterodine ER 4 mg once daily as early as 1 week, which was maintained at 12 weeks Most patients will report treatment benefit within 1 week; those who do not will likely report benefit at 4 or 12 weeks
Higher incidence of withdrawals reported for oxybutynin IR. This was explained by the higher frequency of withdrawals for adverse events with oxybutynin than with placebo or tolterodine. Other reasons for withdrawal were similar between treatment groups: - lack of efficacy (tolterodine 1.3%, oxybutynin 1.6%, placebo 3.3%) - consent withdrawn - loss to follow-up - protocol violation
Compared with placebo, tolterodine ER significantly reduced the median number of mixed incontinence episodes at weeks 1 and 8 (primary endpoint). This reduction was significantly greater than the reduction with placebo as early as 1 week. Further reductions were apparent at 8 weeks. Khullar V, Hill S, Laval K-U, et al. Treatment of urge predominant mixed urinary incontinence with tolterodine: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Urology . 2004;64:269-275.
Tolterodine therapy also improved other micturition variables compared with placebo; this included significant reductions in the median change from baseline in urinary frequency episodes per day and urgency episodes per day. Volume voided per micturition significantly increased in tolterodine-treated patients compared with those receiving placebo. Khullar V, Hill S, Laval K-U, et al. Treatment of urge predominant mixed urinary incontinence with tolterodine: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Urology . 2004;64:269-275.
This slide shows the percentage of subjects in both groups reporting treatment benefit at 1 and 8 weeks. At week 8, the percentage of subjects reporting treatment benefit was statistically significantly higher in the tolterodine group compared with the placebo group. Note that the percentage of subjects reporting treatment benefit increased from week 1 to week 8 in the tolterodine group (from 70% to 76%), whereas in the placebo group, the percentage of subjects reporting treatment benefit decreased from week 1 to week 8 (from 64% to 55%). Perception of bladder condition and response to treatment were assessed at baseline after 1 and 8 weeks. Patients rated their bladder condition severity using a validated 6-point rating scale (1 = no problems, 2 = very minor problems, 3 = minor problems, 4 = moderate problems, 5 = severe problems, and 6 = many severe problems). Improvement was defined as a decrease of 1 point or more from baseline. Khullar V, Hill S, Laval K-U, et al.

Tolterodine was tolerated well and involved fewer withdrawals because of adverse events than placebo. Adverse events were similar between the tolterodine group and the placebo group. The most common adverse event in each treatment group was dry mouth. Khullar V, Hill S, Laval K-U, et al.

Compared with baseline, statistically significant reductions in incontinence episodes were observed in patients with MUI or UUI treated with tolterodine. There was no significant difference in tolterodine efficacy in patients with MUI compared with UUI. Kreder KJ, Brubaker L, Mainprize T. Tolterodine is equally effective in patients with mixed incontinence and those with urge incontinence alone. BJU Int . 2003;92:418-421
Similarly, with all other voiding diary variables, the differences from baseline were significantly improved with tolterodine, but there was no difference in tolterodine efficacy between patients with MUI or UUI. Therefore, tolterodine was equally efficacious in patients with UUI or MUI. Kreder KJ, Brubaker L, Mainprize T. Tolterodine is equally effective in patients with mixed incontinence and those with urge incontinence alone. BMJ Int. 2003;92:418-421.
Studies indicate that patients taking Detrusitol ® SR are likely to continue taking it. The longest Detrusitol SR has been studied was in a 1-year open-label continuation study. In this study, 71% of patients were still taking Detrusitol SR at 1 year. Van Kerrebroeck P, Kreder K, Jonas U, Zinner N, Wein A, on behalf of the Tolterodine Study Group.

As noted in the registration trial, except for dry mouth, adverse events—including those representing other anticholinergic effects—were similar between Detrusitol ® SR and placebo. There was no difference from placebo in reported events such as dizziness, constipation, or abnormal vision. In a 6-year safety review, Detrusitol SR had no known association with cardiac events.
