Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
Publication of the Results of Clinical Trials. We have been advised of the recommendation
for publication in The Journal of Urology® of two manuscripts on the results of clinical
trials related to our Urgent® PC percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS)
neuromodulation system.
On July 10, 2009, Scott A. MacDiarmid, M.D., Director of Alliance Urology Specialists, Bladder
Control and Pelvic Pain Center, in Greensboro, North Carolina advised us that a manuscript for
which he is the lead author and that is entitled Long Term Durability of Percutaneous Tibial Nerve
Stimulation for the Treatment of Overactive Bladder (OrBIT Trial), has been recommended for
publication in The Journal of Urology® and is tentatively scheduled to appear in the
January 2010 issue. This study is the second phase of the OrBIT Trial reporting on the sustained
efficacy of 12-week PTNS responder subjects undergoing continued PTNS therapy over a reduced
treatment interval schedule over a one-year period. Preliminary results of this study were
presented at the American Urological Association Annual Meeting in April 2009.
On September 4, 2009, Kenneth M. Peters, M.D., Chairman of the Department of Urology at Beaumont
Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan advised us that a manuscript for which he is the lead author
entitled Randomized Trial of Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation versus Sham Efficacy in the
Treatment of Overactive Bladder Syndrome: Results from the SUmiT Trial, has been recommended for
publication in The Journal of Urology® and is tentatively scheduled to appear in the
April 2010 issue. This study reports on a 220-subject, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical
trial designed to directly compare the effectiveness of PTNS using Urgent® PC to a sham
intervention over a 12-week period of time.
Results of the SUmiT Trial and content of the two manuscripts are confidential until the
publications appear either online or in print by The Journal of Urology®, or until the
results are available as a published abstract for a professional urological meeting presentation,
or as the presentation itself.
