Registered pharmacological treatments are insufficiently effective for erectile dysfunction (ED) in around 30% of affected men. Intracavernosal injection (ICI) of ona- and abobotulinumtoxinA can reduce ED in insufficient responders. We aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of incobotulinumtoxinA ICI as an add-on therapy to phosphodiesterase-type 5 inhibitors (PDE5-Is) or prostaglandinE1 ICIs (PGE1 ICIs) to treat ED that did not respond sufficiently to this treatment alone. We retrospectively analyzed data from 66 men with difficult to treat ED treated with single or repeated incobotulinumtoxinA 100U ICI as an add-on therapy. Response rate (increase in International Index of Erectile Function-Erectile Function domain score ≥ the minimum clinically important difference) was 52% (median (1st-3rd quartile) 43.5 (34-71) days post-incobotulinumtoxinA ICI). ED etiology (except spinal cord injury) and severity did not influence effectiveness. Only a clinically significant response to the 1st injection predicted a request for a 2nd injection (OR = 5.6, 95%, CI 1.6-19.4). Three men reported mild penile pain during the injection. These results provide preliminary evidence for the effectiveness and safety of incobotulinumtoxinA ICI as an add-on therapy to treat ED that is insufficiently responsive to standard care and provides support for the multicenter randomized clinical trial NCT05196308.
注册的药理学治疗方法对约 30%的受影响男性的勃起功能障碍 (ED) 效果不足。腔内注射单和双肉毒毒素 A 可以减少对反应不足的患者的 ED。我们旨在评估作为磷酸二酯酶 5 抑制剂 (PDE5-Is) 或前列腺素 E1 抑制剂 (PGE1 ICIs) 单独治疗反应不足的 ED 的附加治疗,使用 IncobotulinumtoxinA ICI 的安全性和有效性。我们回顾性分析了 66 名接受单次或重复 IncobotulinumtoxinA 100U ICI 作为附加治疗的难治性 ED 男性的数据。反应率(国际勃起功能指数-勃起功能域评分增加≥最小临床重要差异)为 52%(中位数(1 四分位数-3 四分位数)为 43.5(34-71)天)。ED 病因(除脊髓损伤外)和严重程度不影响疗效。只有对第 1 次注射的临床显著反应预测了对第 2 次注射的需求(OR = 5.6,95%CI 1.6-19.4)。3 名男性在注射过程中报告了轻度阴茎疼痛。这些结果为 IncobotulinumtoxinA ICI 作为标准治疗反应不足的 ED 的附加治疗的有效性和安全性提供了初步证据,并为多中心随机临床试验 NCT05196308 提供了支持。
