Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants Preferring Combination Therapy Over Alpha Blocker Alone on the Treatment Preference Questionnaire (TPQ)Week 20
TPQ was used to investigate participant's preference between alpha1 blocker monotherapy and combination therapy with alpha1 blocker plus tadalafil. At the end of Treatment Period 2 (or discontinuation), participants were asked to choose a preferred treatment between the two treatments given in Treatment Period 1 and Treatment Period 2.
SecondaryChange From Baseline on the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) Total ScoreBaseline, Week 8
IPSS Total Score is the sum of Questions 1 through 7 of the IPSS questionnaire. Each question was scored from 0 (none/no symptoms) to 5 (frequent symptoms) for an IPSS Total Score ranging from 0 to 35 points; higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline on the IPSS Storage (Irritative) SubscoreBaseline,Week 8
IPSS Storage (Irritative) subscore was the sum of Questions 2, 4 and 7 of the IPSS questionnaire. Scores ranged from 0 (no irritative symptoms) to 5 (frequent irritative symptoms), with total subscore of the 3 questions for irritative subscore ranging from 0 to 15. Higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline on the IPSS Voiding (Obstructive) SubscoreBaseline, Week 8
IPSS voiding (obstructive) subscore is the sum of Questions 1, 3, 5 and 6 of the IPSS questionnaire. Scores ranged from 0 (no obstructive symptoms) to 5 (frequent obstructive symptoms), with total subscore of the 4 questions of the obstructive score ranging from 0 to 20. Higher numerical scores from the IPSS questionnaire represent greater severity of symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline on the IPSS Quality of Life Score (IPSS QoL )Baseline, Week 8
IPSS QoL assess participant response to the following question: "If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition just the way it is now, how would you feel about that?". Response options are Delighted (0), Pleased (1); Mostly satisfied (2); mixed about equally satisfied and dissatisfied (3); Mostly dissatisfied (4); Unhappy (5); Terrible (6), with a total ranging from 0 to 6 with higher numerical score representing worse Quality of Life from BPH symptom.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)Week 8
The PGI I is a participant rated instrument that measures the improvement or worsening of the subject's symptoms based on a 7 point scale. A score of "1" indicates that the subject feels his symptoms are "very much better." A score of "4" indicates that the subjects feels "no change" in his symptoms and a score of "7" indicates that the subject feels his symptoms are "very much worse." The percentage of participants who reported a PGI-I score of 1 to 3 are presented in the table below.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With PGI-I (Drug Attributes Questionnaire) on 8 Symptoms for BPH-Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms ImprovementWeek 8
PGI-I (Drug Attributes Questionnaire \[DRAQ\]) on 8 Symptoms for BPH-Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms.The DRAQ includes the following urinary symptoms: 1. Difficulty to void; 2. Frequent nighttime voiding; 3. Feeling of incomplete emptying; 4. Frequent daytime voiding; 5. Urinary urgency; 6. Taking a long time to urinate; 7. Need abdominal pressure to void; 8. Dribbling, leakage, and/or accidents. Each urinary symptom in the DRAQ will be evaluated by a participant using the PGI-I (discrete variables with seven categories) at the end of each treatment period, compared with how the symptom was before the participant's began taking medication in this study. The percentage of participants who reported a PGI-I (Drug Attributes Questionnaire) score of 1 to 3 are presented in the table below.
