Oxybutynin for young boys with posterior urethral valves
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether early use of oxybutynin can improve bladder and urine behavior in very young boys with posterior urethral valves. It is mainly for babies whose bladder tests show problems even after valve surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if tamsulosin, a medicine that relaxes muscles in the bladder and prostate, can help children with a condition called posterior urethral valve. It aims to improve how the bladder works and reduce urinary problems.
This trial tests a liquid form of the medication oxybutynin placed directly into the bladder (via catheter) for children with spina bifida who have bladder overactivity. It may be an option if oral medications haven't worked well or caused side effects.
This trial compares two treatments for kids with overactive bladder: oxybutynin medicine and a painless nerve stimulation device. It aims to find which works better for reducing frequent, urgent, or leaky urination and nighttime accidents.
This study tests a new way to treat overactive bladder in children and teens using a tiny needle that sends mild electrical pulses to a nerve near the ankle. It aims to reduce urgent bathroom trips and daytime leakage without surgery.
This study tests whether circumcision alone can reduce the risk of urinary tract infections with fever in newborn boys who have posterior urethral valves, a birth defect that can block urine flow. It compares circumcision alone to standard care, and aims to see if it helps prevent these infections.
This study tests whether an oxybutynin skin patch after bladder surgery can reduce bladder pain and urgent, frequent urination in children. It compares symptoms after surgery to see if the patch helps more than the control plan.
