The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Avanafil in the treatment of erectile dysfunction with moderate to severe in subjects. And, this is to additionally confirm the efficacy and safety after initiating treatment with Avanafil 100mg and later increasing to 200mg, compared with continuing treatment with Avanafile 100mg, in subjects.
All subjects, who are judged to be suitable to the clinical trial after 4-week free run-in period was completed, should be administered with Avanafil 100mg(study group) or placebo 100mg(control group) for the first 4 weeks after randomization. When there are no moderate to severe adverse events at the 4 weeks evaluation after administration, and when it is decided by the researcher that the effect of Avanafil or placebo 100mg against erectile dysfunction is insufficient, a dosage increase to 200mg is executed. For subjects with a sufficient improvement effect on ED at 100mg, no dosage increase is allowed, and the previous 100mg administration should be maintained until the termination of the study.

Compare with the changes in IIEF(The International Index of Erectile Function)Erectile Function domain score between the study group and control group.
When changes in IIEF EF domain score of the study group (Avanafil-administered group) and control group (placebo-administered group) are compared to the baseline after 12 weeks post medication, it is to evaluate the superiority of the study group.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Compare with the MSHQ, SEP Q2, SEP Q3 and GEAQ.
1. When a dose is increased to 200mg because the effect is insufficient after 4 weeks of medication with Avanafil 100mg, it is to evaluate the effect of a dosage increase in IIEF EF domain, SEP Q2 and Q3. 2. It is to evaluate changes in SEP (Q2, Q3, Q4 and Q5), other domains of IIEF (such as OF, SD, IS and OS domain), IIEF Q3, IIEF Q4, MSHQ, rate of subjects who score 26 and over in EF domain, GEAQ of the study group and control group compared to the baseline after 12 weeks post medication. 3. Change in total score of IIEF EF domain, SEP Q2 and Q3; Comparison between the result from the 12th week and the result from the baseline and the 4th week. \[Glossary\] MSHQ: Male Sexual Health Questionnaire SEP: Sexual Encounter Profile SEP Q2: Intercourse success rates on the Sexual Encounter Profile SEP Q3: Erectile success rates on the Sexual Encounter Profile GEAQ:Global Assessment Question
