    摘要: A method is provided for local controlled delivery of a drug to the seminal vesicle, the prostate, the ejaculatory duct, or the vas deferens of a patient in need of treatment. In one embodiment, the method includes implanting a resorbable drug delivery device within the seminal vesicle, the prostate, the ejaculatory duct, or the vas deferens of the patient. The drug delivery device may include an elastic device body housing at least one drug reservoir which contains at least one drug. In a preferred embodiment, the method further includes releasing the drug from the device in a controlled manner to, typically directly to, the seminal vesicle, the prostate, the ejaculatory duct, or the vas deferens.

    摘要: Implant devices for intravesical administration and local drug delivery. The device has a body which includes a hollow tube formed of a biocompatible material; at least one reservoir in the tube which contains a drug; and one or more apertures through which the drug can be released. The device is configured for minimally invasive insertion into a body cavity, such as the bladder. The hollow tube may be elastomeric to permit the device to be elastically deformed from its initial shape into an elongated shape for passage through a catheter, where following such passage the device can return to or toward its initial shape to facilitate retention of the device in the body cavity. The body may have a narrow, elongated shape effective to permit insertion of the drug delivery device through a catheter without necessarily deforming the body, yet include flexible projections which effect retention within the body cavity.

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods for diagnosis of chronic prostatitis/chronic pain pelvic syndrome (CP/CPPS). We have found specific biomarkers that are present in higher concentrations in patients that have chronic prostatitis/chronic pain pelvic syndrome (CP/CPPS) as compared to subjects that have no symptoms of CP/CPPS. In particular, uromodulin (THP), aminopeptidase N (AMPN), dipeptidylpeptidase IV (CD26), neprilysin (NEP), zinc-α-2-glycoprotein (ZA2G) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were found to be present at higher concentrations in CP/CPPS patient urine that is voided after prostatic message. Accordingly, the invention is directed to methods for diagnosis of CP/CPPS by monitoring the levels of at least one of these proteins in post-prostatic massage urine, as well as to diagnostic kits designed for diagnosis of CP/CPPS.
