PINNACLE is a prospective, multi-center, randomized control clinical trial to establish the safety and efficacy of the Optilume™ BPH Catheter System in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
This is a prospective, multi-center, double blind, randomized controlled clinical trial in a 2:1 allocation of Test versus sham Control. In addition, a single arm of 15 non-randomized subjects will be added to study the Pharmacokinetics of the drug. The objectives of the study are to assess the efficacy of Optilume BPH Catheter System to alleviate LUTS believed to be secondary to BPH (LUTS/BPH) and to evaluate the safety of Optilume BPH Catheter System in the treatment of LUTS/BPH.

Number of Participants With >30% Improvement in the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)
The primary efficacy endpoint was the improvement in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at 12 months in the Optilume BPH arm compared to the improvement in IPSS at 3 months in the Sham arm with a super-superiority margin on 25%. The IPSS contains the well-validated, highly reliable and responsive American Urological Association symptom score (AUASS) assessment to identify the severity of BPH symptoms. The first seven questions in the IPSS address frequency, nocturia, weak urinary stream, hesitancy, intermittence, incomplete emptying, and urgency, and scored on a 6-point scale (0 to 5). The IPSS can be interpreted as follows: 0-7 mildly symptomatic, 8-19 moderately symptomatic, and 20-35 severely symptomatic. The IPSS also includes an eighth question that is designed to assess the degree of "bother" associated with the subject's urinary symptoms. Answers range from "delighted" to "terrible" (0-6). This question is not included in the calculation of the main IPSS score.
Time frame: 12 months
Number of Participants With Major Device Related Serious Complications
Rate of major device-related serious complications. A major device-related serious complication is defined as any of the following events through 12 months: * Device-related rectal fistula or GI fistula * Device-related formation of fistula between the rectum and urethra * Device-related new onset severe urinary retention lasting \> 14 consecutive days post-healing * Device-related unresolved new onset stress urinary incontinence by 90 days * Device-related bleeding requiring transfusion * Device-related urethra or prostatic capsule rupture requiring surgical intervention
Time frame: 12 months
