The study is intended to test the safety, tolerability, efficacy of two doses of long term once daily (qd) treatment of Mirabegron in patients with symptoms of overactive bladder and secondly to compare these with active comparator.
Patients who completed 178-CL-046 (NCT00689104) or 178-CL-047 (NCT00662909) or new patients could be enrolled in this study if eligible.

Number of Participants With and Severity of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a study drug and which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. The investigator assessed the severity of each AE, including abnormal laboratory values, as follows: Mild: No disruption of normal daily activities; Moderate: Affected normal daily activities; Severe: Inability to perform daily activities.
Time frame: From the first dose of double-blind study drug up until 30 days after the last dose of study drug, up to 13 months.
Change From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and Final Visit in Mean Number of Micturitions Per 24 Hours
The average number of micturitions (urinations) per 24 hours was derived from the number of times a patient urinates (excluding incontinence only episodes) per day recorded by the patient in a micturition diary for 3-days prior to clinic visits at Baseline and months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12/end of treatment. Least squares (LS) means were generated from the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment group, previous study history, gender and geographical regions as fixed factors and baseline as a covariate.
Time frame: Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
Change From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and Final Visit in Mean Number of Incontinence Episodes Per 24 Hours

Change From Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and Final Visit in Symptom Bother Score
Overactive bladder symptoms were assessed using the symptom bother scale of the overactive bladder questionnaire. The symptom bother scale consists of 8 questions answered by the patient on a scale from 1-6. The total symptom bother score was calculated from the 8 answers and then transformed to range from 0 to 100, with 100 indicating worst severity.

The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment: Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP) questionnaire was used to assess the degree and extent to which overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms interfered with daily activities over the last 7 days. Percent activity impairment is derived from the patient's assessment of the degree to which OAB affected their regular daily activities. A higher percentage indicates greater impairment and less productivity. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Safety as Assessed by Adverse Events (AEs), Vital Signs, Laboratory Tests, Physical Examination and Electrocardiogram
An abnormality identified during a medical test was defined as an AE if the abnormality induced clinical signs or symptoms, required active intervention, interruption or discontinuation of study drug or was clinically significant. The Investigator assessed each AE for causal relationship (not related, possible or probable) to study drug. A serious AE (SAE) was any untoward medical occurrence that: resulted in death, was life-threatening, resulted in significant disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly/birth defect, required or prolonged hospitalization or was a medically important event. The data reported represent the number of participants with adverse events in each category.
Time frame: From the first dose of double-blind study drug up until 30 days after the last dose of study drug, up to 13 months.
