a trial evaluating the clinical efficacy and safety of hibero sr (mirabegron) 50 mg and ditropan (oxybutynin chloride) 10 mg in children between 5 and 18 years with overactive bladder (oab)

Conditions: Overactive Bladder

Summary: the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of hibero (mirabegron) versus active control (ditropan: oxybutynin chloride) in the treatment of pediatric subjects (5 to \< 18 years of age) with overactive bladder. this study will further evaluate the safety of mirabegron in pediatric subjects with oab after multiple dose adminstration.

the trial consists of four periods (screening/ washout (2 weeks); baseline; 4 weeks from baseline; 8 weeks from baseline) excluding the safety monitoring period. it is a randomized, open label, parallel group, and active control comparator trial. the subject will be assigned either to hibero (mirabegron) 50 mg or ditropan (oxybutynin chloride) 10 mg at baseline (randomization). the subject will be asked to take the ip or active comparator by mouth without crushing the pill for 8 weeks, and the frequency of oral administration depends on the prescribed method.
