Embodiment 1
[0303] In one study, 97 patients with or without prior conventional oral drug therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) received the amino acid sequence Ile-Asp-Gln-Gln-Val-Leu-Ser-Arg-Ile-Lys - Double-blind single-dose study of specific peptides of Leu-Glu-Ile-Lys-Arg-Cys-Leu ("drug (DRUG)" described below) (n=61) or vehicle only (placebo) (n=36) injection, and clinical follow-up for 2-5 years. Patients with BPH were administered the following intraprostatic intravenous injections under ultrasound guidance by a urologist in an office setting under double-blind conditions: a) DRUG in phosphate-buffered saline ("PBS") at pH 7.2, or b) PBS only. Patients were followed up for 2 to 5 years, and regular physical examination, laboratory examination and symptom assessment were performed. Receive a) DRUG followed by conventional oral medications for BPH (including alpha blockers such as tamsulosin, terazosin, doxazosin, silodosin, etc. or 5-alpha reductase Inhibitors such as f...
Embodiment 2
[0311] In one study, 30 patients who had not previously taken conventionally approved oral medications for BPH received a double-blind single injection of DRUG (n=21) or vehicle only (placebo) (n=9), followed by clinical trials. Follow up for 2-5 years. Patients from the above drug and vehicle-only placebo groups who had not previously received conventional oral medication and subsequently continued on conventional oral medication were assessed for their response to conventional oral BPH medication. Surprisingly, after routine oral BPH medication, the improvement in BPH symptom response in patients receiving DRUG was significantly better than expected (mean improvement in symptom score of 7.48 points, compared to 3-5 points improvement with conventional oral medication alone, p <.02), while the placebo-only patients did not (average improvement of 2.33 points, compared to the expected improvement of 3-5 points).

Embodiment 3
[0314] In another study, BPH patients were given intravenous injections of PBS pH 7.2 vehicle alone under ultrasound guidance by urologists under double-blind conditions. Patients were followed up for 1 to 3 years, and regular physical examination, laboratory examination and symptom evaluation were performed. Patients receiving PBS vehicle only and patients subsequently also receiving conventional oral medications used to treat BPH (eg, alpha blockers) before and after receiving additional injections of the medication in phosphate-buffered saline pH 7.2 ("PBS") to evaluate. Symptom assessment was measured by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), a quantitative score used to assess improvement or worsening of prostate symptoms. Differences from baseline IPSS were compared for outcomes after crossover with DRUG in patients using blinded PBS only plus conventional oral medication and the same patients on oral medication. Surprisingly, subjects who took BPH medication...
