Long-term outcomes of recurrent strictures treated with the Optilume Urethral Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) are reported here. METHODS: Men with recurrent bulbar stricture ≤ 2cm with 1-4 prior endoscopic treatments were treated with the Optilume Urethral DCB. Primary safety endpoint was serious urinary adverse events. Primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of subjects with≥50% improvement in IPSS at 5 years. Subjects receiving secondary treatment were treated as failures for this endpoint. Secondary outcomes included QoL, freedom from repeat intervention, erectile function, flow rate, and PVR. RESULTS: 53 subjects were enrolled; 43 were evaluable at 5 year follow-up. 43% of men had≥2 previous dilations with a mean of 1.7 prior dilations. No reported serious adverse events related to treatment at 5 years. Success was achieved in 25/43 (58.1%). IPSS improved from a mean of 25.2 at baseline to 7.2 at 5 years (p<0.001). Freedom from repeat intervention rate was 29/43 (67%). QoL, flow rate, and PVR improved significantly from baseline. No impact on erectile function was reported. CONCLUSIONS: Subjects treated with the Optilume Urethral DCB exhibited significant improvement in symptomatic and functional outcomes through 5 years posttreatment. Symptomatic response to treatment remained stable from 2 to 5 years post-treatment. The Optilume Urethral DCB represents a safe and durable treatment option for patients with recurrent bulbar stricture.
