Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To prospectively investigate whether vardenafil can effectively treat patients for whom sildenafil (100 mg) has failed. The introduction of two new oral phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (tadalafil and vardenafil) raises the question of whether the new agents will permit us to treat sildenafil nonresponders with another oral agent. METHODS:Patients were seen at one institution during a 5-year period. A total of 327 patients complaining of sildenafil-refractory erectile dysfunction underwent intracavernous pharmacologic injection and color duplex Doppler ultrasonography. Subsequently 59 of these men tried vardenafil home dosing. RESULTS:Of the 327 men in whom sildenafil failed, 16% were younger than 50, 21% were 51 to 60, 34% were 61 to 70, and 28% were older than 70 years. The Doppler diagnoses were arterial insufficiency in 154 (47%), mixed vascular insufficiency in 73 (22%), and cavernous venous occlusive disease in 57 (17%). Forty-three men (13%) had normal erectile responses to prostaglandin E1 (10 to 20 microg). Of the 59 men who tried vardenafil, 19% were younger than 50, 17% were 51 to 60, 40% were 61 to 70, and 23% were older than 70 years. The Doppler diagnoses were arterial insufficiency in 28 (42%), mixed vascular insufficiency in 10 (19%), and cavernous venous occlusive disease in 15 (29%). Six men (8%) had normal erectile responses to prostaglandin E1. Only 7 (12%) of the 59 men reported that home vardenafil dosing resulted in successful intercourse. CONCLUSIONS:An appropriate diagnostic evaluation and subsequent treatment algorithm have yet to be established for those for whom phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors fail. We found that most sildenafil nonresponders had severe arterial insufficiency and were older, with 62% older than 60 years. Our preliminary experience suggests that only a small percentage (12%) of sildenafil nonresponders can be salvaged with vardenafil.
