Colipral® (Probiotic Strain Escherichia Coli 5C (ECP24®)) for Prevention of Recurrent Cystitis in Menopausal Women

Recurrent cystitis is a common condition in menopausal women and is associated with impaired quality of life and increased antibiotic use. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Colipral® in preventing recurrent cystitis in menopausal women. Participants will be randomized to receive either Colipral® (probiotic strain Escherichia coli 5C (ECP24®)))or placebo for 12 weeks and will be followed for a total of 24 weeks. The study will assess the occurrence of symptomatic cystitis recurrences confirmed by urine culture, as well as symptoms, quality of life, urinary pain, and antibiotic consumption.

Evaluating the Efficacy and Patient Experience of Catheter-Free Intravesical Instillation

This study aims to evaluate a catheter-free method for delivering medications directly into the bladder, known as intravesical instillation, which is commonly used to treat conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder cancer, and post-chemotherapy or post-radiation cystitis. The study investigates whether this method, which eliminates the need for catheterization, reduces discomfort and complications while maintaining treatment effectiveness. By collecting data on patient experiences and outcomes, the study seeks to determine if this approach provides a safer and more comfortable alternative to traditional catheter-based treatments.
