• Change From Baseline to End of Treatment in Overactive Bladder Questionnairre (OAB-q) Symptom Bother Score [ Time Frame: Baseline and 12 Weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

  The OAB-q is used to assess how much a patient is bothered by OAB symptoms & the impact of these symptoms on the patient's Health Related Quality of Life(HRQL). It is a patient administered tool comprised of 33 items, where the first 8 define symptom bother with raw score being converted to a scale of 0 to 100.

  Higher score values are indicative of greater symptom severity or bother, and a lower score in change from baseline indicates improvement.

  End of Treatment results include patients who had early discontinuation from the study.

  Change is calculated as End of Treatment - Baseline.

Phase 4, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. All subjects that meet the baseline criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio into VESIcare® (solifenacin succinate) or placebo group.

The study duration consists of a screening period which includes a minimum of a 14 day treatment free wash-out period. Subjects meeting the baseline criteria will have a 12 week treatment period. Maximum total study duration is 15 weeks: 2 3 week screening / washout period; 12 week double-blind treatment.

Primary efficacy will be based on OAB-q symptom bother score.
