1 Increasing the Flow Treating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) Catherine E. Cooke, PharmD, BCPS, PAHM Independent Consultant and Clinical Assistant Professor, University of Maryland School of Pharmacy
2 Patient Case IP is a 64 year old man w/ complaints of urinary frequency, nocturia x 2, & slow stream BP 120/80 mmhg, pulse 72, PSA 1.0 nl/ml Diagnosis: BPH How would you manage this patient? Alpha blocker 5-alpha reductase inhibitor Saw palmetto Combination therapy with alpha blocker and 5- alpha reductase inhibitor
3 Learning Objectives REVIEW the likelihood of prostate disorders and identify the urinary symptoms of BPH. PROVIDE an update on the appropriate pharmacological treatments for BPH. DESCRIBE the impact that pharmacists can have on the management of BPH. REVIEW the pharmacist's role in counseling patients on behavioral modifications and drug therapies available to treat BPH.
4 Overview Epidemiology of BPH Pathophysiology of BPH Review current treatment options Alpha blockers 5-alpha reductase inhibitors Combination therapy Considerations in choosing and monitoring pharmacotherapy
5 Characteristics of BPH Benign non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate caused by growth of new cells resulting in varying degrees of bladder outlet obstruction LUTS (lower urinary tract symptoms) Urinary frequency, urgency, nighttime urination Hesitancy, intermittency, decreased size and force of urinary stream Incomplete emptying, incontinence Not everyone with LUTS has BPH l. Benign prostatic hyperplasia. Health Press, 1995.
6 Kirby RS et al. Benign prostatic hyperplasia. Health Press, Anatomy of BPH Normal BPH BLADDER PROSTATE URETHRA Hypertrophied detrusor muscle Obstructed urinary flow
7 Symptoms of BPH Obstructive Symptoms (voiding) Hesitancy Weak stream Straining to pass urine Prolonged micturition Irritative Symptoms (storage) Urgency Frequency Nocturia Urge incontinence Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying Urinary retention Kirby RS et al. Benign prostatic hyperplasia. Health Press, 1995.

9 Treatment Options for BPH Watchful waiting Medical therapy Surgical therapy
10 Watchful Waiting Mild symptoms or asymptomatic Lifestyle modifications No intake of fluids after 7 pm Cut down on bladder irritants such as caffeine and chocolate Limit use of salt and spices Limit alcohol Limit use of OTC decongestants
11 Medical Therapy Alpha blockers 5α-reductase inhibitors Combination therapy
12 Alpha Blockers Dynamic Component Increased smooth muscle tone

19 Static Component Increased prostate tissue mass
20 BPH Progression In some men, BPH is a progressive condition: Increase in prostate volume Worsening of symptoms Deterioration in urinary flow rate Increased risk of acute urinary retention (AUR) Increased risk of needing surgery for BPH
21 PSA as a Predictor of Future Prostate Growth % Change in PV at 48 Months Annualized Growth Rates Low PSA tertile: 0.7 ml/year Middle PSA tertile: 2.1 ml/year High PSA tertile: 3.3 ml/year Prostate Volume Roehrborn CG et al. J Urol. 2000;163:13-20.
22 Incidence of AUR and/or Surgery Over 4 Years by PSA Tertiles Left untreated 1 in 6 patients with a PSA of >1.4 ng/ml will experience AUR or BPH-related surgery over a 4-year time period % Patients Surgery/AUR Baseline PSA tertiles (ng/ml) Roehrborn CG et al. Urology. 1999;53:
23 5-α Reductase Inhibitors (5-ARI) Static Component Increased prostate tissue mass
24 5-α Reductase Inhibitors Selectivity Half-life Short/Long-term efficacy Titration Side effects mean peak urinary flow rate GENERIC available Dutasteride (Avodart) Type I and II 5 weeks +/+ Not required Impotence, decreased libido, abnormal ejaculation, gynecomastia ml/s No Finasteride (Proscar) Type II 6-8 h +/+ Not required Impotence, decreased libido, abnormal ejaculation, gynecomastia ~ 1.9 ml/s Yes
25 Risk of AUR and BPH-Related Surgery In a general population, men over the age of 60 have a 23% lifetime (20 years) risk of AUR This risk increased in men with symptomatic BPH and enlarged prostate Men over the age of 60 with an enlarged prostate and obstructive symptoms have a 39% lifetime (20 years) risk of BPH-related surgery Jacobsen et al. J Urol. 1997;158: Arrighi et al. J Urol. 1991;38(Suppl 1):4-8.
26 5-α Reductase Inhibitors (5-ARI) Both Dutasteride & Finasteride: Reduce Risk of Acute Urinary Retention Reduce Risk of BPH-Related Surgery
27
28 Precautions, Contraindications, and Warnings 5-ARIs should not be used in women and children Caution should be used in the administration of dutasteride to patients with liver disease. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not handle the capsules or tablets because of the possibility of absorption through the skin and potential risk to a male fetus Men treated with dutasteride should not donate blood until at least 6 months following their final dose to prevent pregnant women from receiving dutasteride through a blood transfusion Data on file, GlaxoSmithKline.
29 Effects on PSA and Prostate Cancer Screening in Men Receiving 5-ARIs Establish a new baseline after 3-6 months of treatment and use this value to assess potentially cancer-related changes in PSA To interpret an isolated PSA value in a man treated with a 5-ARI for 6 months or more, double the PSA value for comparison with normal values in untreated men
30
31
32 Comparing Alpha Blockers and 5-alpha Reductase Inhibitors From comparative trials, alpha-1 blockers are more effective than finasteride in improving symptoms and increasing urinary flow (no data for dutasteride) Finasteride works best in patients with large prostate volumes (>40 ml)
33 Comparing Alpha Blockers and 5-alpha Reductase Inhibitors Dutasteride appears to work as well in both large and smaller prostates 5-alpha reductase inhibitors reduce the risk of AUR and surgery Alpha blockers have not been shown to alter progression of the disease Both 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and alpha blockers improve symptoms

Alpha blocker 5-alpha reductase inhibitor Saw palmetto Combination therapy with alpha blocker and 5- alpha reductase inhibitor
39 Conclusion BPH is prevalent among older men Determination of therapy is based on patient Treatment choice based on BPH symptoms, prostate size and adverse effect profiles
