[Prostamol-Uno treatment in patients with prostatic adenoma and chronic non-infectious prostatitis].

We studied efficacy and safety of prostamol-Uno (PU) monotherapy in patients with prostatic adenoma (PA) comorbid with chronic abacterial prostatitis (CAP) in a clinical open trial including 45-year-old males aged over 45 years with PA comorbid with CAP, having irritative and obstructive symptoms by IPSS above 8 points and duration 6 months or longer, by NIH-CPSI above 10 points and duration 3 months or longer. The patients had Qmax from 5 to 15 ml/s, urine volume 100-350 ml, residual urine volume under 150 ml, prostate size more than 25 cm3, PSA level under 4 ng/ml and no bacterial growth in the third urine portion seeding and/or prostatic secretion. The effect was assessed by the disease history, complaints, digital rectal examination of the prostate, the disease symptoms by IPSS, quality of life (QoL), NIH-CPSI, bacteriological tests of the urine and prostatic secretion, urinalysis, Nechiporenko test in 3 urine portions. Uroflowmetry, ultrasonic investigation of the urinary bladder and prostate, transrectal energy dopplerography of the prostate, PSA assay in the blood serum were made in all the patients. PU safety was evaluated by arterial pressure, heart rate, 6-lead ECG, total and biochemical blood count. Control examination 3 months after the treatment showed no negative changes. PU patients demonstrated reduction in IPSS index from 14 to 6.8 points and NIH-CPSI (from 18.4 to 12.3 points (from 13 to 11.2 and 17.1 to 16.8 points, respectively, in the controls). QoL reduced from 3.9 to 1.9, from 3.6 to 3.3 points, respectively. Qmax rose from 12.4 to 18.2 ml/s and 13.5 to 14.5 ml/s, respectively. PSA changed insignificantly. Side effects were mild. Spectral doppler examination detected improvement in prostatic blood flow after PU treatment in 16 (53.3%) patients. Resistance index as an index of peripheral vascular resistance increased from 0.48-0.54 to 0.7-0.72 (p < 0.05). Thus, PU effectively reduces irritative and obstructive symptoms typical for prostatic adenoma in combination with CAP.
