A Randomised Open-label Superiority Trial of Open Urethroplasty Versus Endoscopic Urethrotomy (the OPEN trial):
In partnership with the NHS, and colleagues from Sheffield, Newcastle and London, this projects aims to compare the long-term effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of urethrotomy with open urethroplasty in adult men with recurrent bulbar urethral stricture.
We are focusing on reintervention rates, and exploring patient’s and clinician’s views on what constitutes a minimally clinical important difference in rates from their perspective. This will support interpretation of findings.
