Open or close this module Study Description
Brief Summary: This study is being done to test the effect of PSD502 (the study medication) compared to placebo in subjects with premature ejaculation. PSD502 is a topical (applied to skin) anesthetic spray containing a mixture of two drugs called lidocaine and prilocaine that will be applied to the penis. Half of the subjects will receive PSD502 and half will receive placebo.
Detailed Description:

The study will assess whether the bothersome symptoms of premature ejaculation (PE) are helped when treated with PSD502 by answering questionnaires such as the 'Premature Ejaculation Bothersome Evaluation Questionnaire' (PEBEQ) and 'Index of Premature Ejaculation© (IPE) and some additional questions about premature ejaculation.

The study will also measure the effect of PSD502 on the Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT). This is the time between when the penis enters the vagina and when the subject starts to ejaculate in the vagina.

Subjects are stratified based on whether they are circumcised or uncircumcised and within each stratified group subjects are randomized to PSD502 (lidocaine prilocaine spray) or placebo in a 1:1 ratio.

Experimental: PSD502
PSD502 spray contains a eutectic-like mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine, and a propellant (norflurane) which also serves as a solvent. Each spray contains 7.5 mg lidocaine and 2.5 mg prilocaine. A single dose consists of 3 sprays applied to the glans penis.
Drug: PSD502

For each sexual encounter during the 4-week treatment period the study spray will be applied 5 minutes before intercourse and any excess will be wiped off prior to penetration.

Study subjects should leave at least 24 hours between each dosing.

Other Names:
  • mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
The placebo is a metered dose spray, identical in appearance to the active treatment and contains the same propellant (norflurane) but has no lidocaine or prilocaine (instead it contains PEG600 and Povidone).
Drug: Placebo

For each sexual encounter during the 4-week treatment period the study spray will be applied 5 minutes before intercourse and any excess will be wiped off prior to penetration.

Open or close this module Outcome Measures
[See Results Section.]
Primary Outcome Measures:
1. Change Between Baseline and 4 Weeks : Success on the Premature Ejaculation Bothersome Evaluation Questionnaire PEBEQ Item 3 (Event-specific Bother)
[ Time Frame: Baseline and 4 week treatment period ]

Success is defined as having a 1-point or greater improvement between the mean response over the treatment period and the mean response during the baseline period
Secondary Outcome Measures:
1. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) - Meaningful Change
[ Time Frame: 4 weeks post treatment ]

Patient-reported global impression of change in the quickness of their ejaculation. Subjects will also be asked to provide a 'Yes' or 'No' response to the question 'Was this a meaningful or important change for you?'
2. Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S)
[ Time Frame: Baseline and 4 week treatment period ]

Change from baseline in patient-reported impression of severity of the quickness of their ejaculation. Subjects will be asked to answer the question 'Overall, how severe is the quickness of your ejaculation?' Using a 5-point scale of 'Not Severe' (0), 'Mildly Severe' (1), 'Moderately Severe' (2), 'Very Severe' (3) and 'Extremely Severe' (4).
3. Patient Global Impression of Change-Bother (PGI-C Bother)
[ Time Frame: 4 weeks post treatment ]

Patient-reported global impression of change in the bother resulting from the quickness of their ejaculation. Subjects will be asked to provide a response to the following question 'Compared to when you started the study, how would you describe any change in how much you are bothered by the quickness of your ejaculation now?' on a 7-point scale of: 'Bothered a great deal less' (3), 'Bothered moderately less' (2), 'Bothered a little less' (1), 'Bothered about the same' (0), 'Bothered a little worse' (-1), Bothered moderately worse' (-2) and 'Bothered a great deal worse' (-3). Subjects will also be asked to provide a 'Yes' or 'No' response to the question 'Was this a meaningful or important change for you?'.
4. Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT)
[ Time Frame: Baseline and 4 week treatment period ]

Change from baseline in intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT); The IELT is a standard assessment used to evaluate premature ejaculation. In this study, IELT eligibility is based on the first evidence-based ISSM definition of PE2, i.e., IELT ≤1 minute (for all baseline sexual encounters). The unit of measure is seconds.
5. Independent Ejaculation Quickness Item (IEQI)
[ Time Frame: Baseline and 4 week treatment period ]

Change from baseline in patient-reported impression of how quickly they ejaculated during each attempt of sexual intercourse. This item asked the subject to answer the question 'How quickly do you feel you ejaculated during the sexual intercourse you just engaged in?' using a 5-point scale of 'Not quick at all' (0), 'Slightly quick' (1), 'Moderately quick' (2), 'Very quick' (3) and 'Extremely quick' (4). The IEQI was completed by the subject for all sexual encounters during the study.
6. Index of Premature Ejaculation (IPE) Control Domain Score
[ Time Frame: 4 weeks post treatment ]

This item asked the subject to answer questions about the effects his sexual problems have had on his sex life over the past four weeks. This 10-item questionnaire is divided into three domains that assess sexual satisfaction (4 questions; score range 4-20 ), ejaculatory control (4 questions, score range 4-20), and distress (2 questions, score range 2-10). For all questions, the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 5, with 5 being a better outcome and 1 being a worse outcome. If No sexual intercourse (not applicable)', is selected the answers will be treated as 'missing' in the calculation of domain scores. If 50% or more of the questions within a particular domain are answered with a non-missing response, the domain score will be calculated as follows:

Score = total number of questions in domain x (sum of non-missing/number of non-missing) If less than 50% of domain questions are answered, the domain score will be missing.

7. Independent Numeric Response Scale Bother Item (Independent NRS Bother)
[ Time Frame: Baseline and 4 week treatment period ]

This scale asks the subject, "How bothered were you this time by how quickly you ejaculated?" This scale goes from 0, "Not Bothered at All" to 10, "As bothered as I can imagine". The subject was asked to circle the number that best reflected his answer. The subject was asked to complete this item at the Screening Visit, as well as after each sexual encounter during the study.
8. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) Score
[ Time Frame: 4 weeks post treatment ]

Patient-reported global impression of change in the quickness of their ejaculation. Subjects will be asked to provide a response to the question 'Compared to when you started the study, how would you describe any change in how quickly you ejaculate now?' on a 7-point scale of: 'A great deal better' (3), 'Moderately better' (2), 'A little better' (1), 'About the same' (0), 'A little worse' (-1), 'Moderately worse' (-2) and 'A great deal worse' (-3).

5. Secondary Outcome:
Title Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT)
Description Change from baseline in intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT); The IELT is a standard assessment used to evaluate premature ejaculation. In this study, IELT eligibility is based on the first evidence-based ISSM definition of PE2, i.e., IELT ≤1 minute (for all baseline sexual encounters). The unit of measure is seconds.
Time Frame Baseline and 4 week treatment period
Outcome Measure Data
Analysis Population Description
Modified Intent to Treat: Included all eligible randomized subjects who received at least one dose of a study drug and who had at least three observations of PEBEQ Item 3 (event-specific bother) in the baseline period and at least one in the treatment period. Subjects were analyzed according to the treatment they were assigned to at randomization, irrespective of what treatment they actually received.

6. Secondary Outcome:
Title Independent Ejaculation Quickness Item (IEQI)
Description Change from baseline in patient-reported impression of how quickly they ejaculated during each attempt of sexual intercourse. This item asked the subject to answer the question 'How quickly do you feel you ejaculated during the sexual intercourse you just engaged in?' using a 5-point scale of 'Not quick at all' (0), 'Slightly quick' (1), 'Moderately quick' (2), 'Very quick' (3) and 'Extremely quick' (4). The IEQI was completed by the subject for all sexual encounters during the study.

7. Secondary Outcome:
Title Index of Premature Ejaculation (IPE) Control Domain Score
Description

This item asked the subject to answer questions about the effects his sexual problems have had on his sex life over the past four weeks. This 10-item questionnaire is divided into three domains that assess sexual satisfaction (4 questions; score range 4-20 ), ejaculatory control (4 questions, score range 4-20), and distress (2 questions, score range 2-10). For all questions, the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 5, with 5 being a better outcome and 1 being a worse outcome. If No sexual intercourse (not applicable)', is selected the answers will be treated as 'missing' in the calculation of domain scores. If 50% or more of the questions within a particular domain are answered with a non-missing response, the domain score will be calculated as follows:

Score = total number of questions in domain x (sum of non-missing/number of non-missing) If less than 50% of domain questions are answered, the domain score will be missing.
