A Phase 4, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Mirabegron in Men With Overactive Bladder (OAB) Symptoms While Taking the Alpha Blocker Tamsulosin Hydrochloride for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) Due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of mirabegron
versus placebo in men with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms while taking tamsulosin
hydrochloride for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
(BPH).

At Screening (Visit 1), subjects will enter into a 4-week open label tamsulosin hydrochloride
0.4 mg QD run-in period prior to being randomized into the 12-week double-blind treatment
period (Visit 2). At conclusion of the 4-week tamsulosin hydrochloride run-in period,
subjects will complete a 3-day diary just prior to Baseline (Visit 2). Approximately 7 days
prior to Visit 2 subjects will receive a phone call reminding them about the diary and to
answer any questions.

If subjects meet all entry criteria at the end of the tamsulosin hydrochloride run-in period,
subjects will be randomized to 1 of 2 treatment groups (mirabegron or placebo) for 12 weeks
of treatment in addition to the continuation of tamsulosin hydrochloride 0.4 mg QD. Those
subjects randomized to mirabegron will start at 25 mg and will increase to 50 mg after 4
weeks. Those subjects randomized to placebo will start blinded product matched to the
mirabegron 25 mg tablet and will increase to blinded product matched to 50 mirabegron after 4
weeks. Once a subject has increased dose, the subject will remain on that dose for the
remainder of the study unless for safety reasons is required to discontinue study drug.

A training diary will be completed in the first 2 weeks of the tamsulosin hydrochloride
run-in period. During this evaluation period at least one telephone contact will take place
with the subject. Diaries will be completed at home, using the electronic patient-reported
outcome (ePRO) device, for 3 consecutive days prior to each visit: Baseline (Visit 2), Week 4
(Visit 3), Week 8 (Visit 4), and Week 12/End of Treatment (Visit 5). Site staff will contact
the subject approximately 7 days prior to the scheduled visit to remind the subject to
complete the electronic diary, review completion instruction and review changes to
concomitant medications and adverse events (if applicable).

Three days before Visits 2 (Baseline), 3 (Week 4), 4 (Week 8), and 5 (Week 12), subjects will
complete a 3-day diary, using the ePRO device in which the subject will record micturition
frequency, urgency (PPIUS), incontinence and volume voided. In addition, the diary will
capture morning and evening blood pressure and pulse rate measurements via Home Blood
Pressure Monitoring (HBPM). At Visit 1, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) will be
completed. At Visits 2, 3, 4, and 5, subjects will complete the IPSS, EQ-5D-5L, OAB-q, PPBC,
and TS-VAS. Maximum urinary flow (Qmax) will be measured at Visit 1 (Screening/tamsulosin
hydrochloride run-in) and Visit 5 (Week 12/End of Treatment). Post-void residual volume (PVR)
will be assessed at Screening/tamsulosin hydrochloride run-in (Visit 1), Baseline (Visit 2)
and at Week 4 (Visit 3), Week 8 (Visit 4), and Week 12/End of Treatment (Visit 5). A
follow-up phone call (Visit 6) will be conducted 4-weeks after End of Treatment (Visit 5).
Total study participation is approximately 20 weeks.

Inclusion Criteria assessed at Visit 1 (Screening):

- Men ≥40 years of age with history of overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms (frequency of
≥8 micturitions per day and urgency episodes of ≥2 per day) while taking tamsulosin
hydrochloride for at least 2 months to treat LUTS due to BPH.

- Subject has symptoms of OAB (urinary frequency and urgency with or without
incontinence) for ≥3 months prior to Screening.

- Subject has an International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) score ≥8.

- Subject has Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) <4 ng/mL or ≥4 but < 10 ng/mL with a
prostate biopsy that is negative for cancer in the past 2 years.

- Subject is willing and able to complete the 3-day diary (including urine volumes,
vital signs measurements), and Quality of Life questionnaires.

- Subject and the subject's spouses/partners who are of childbearing potential must be
using a highly effective birth control, which includes established use of oral,
injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception, placement of an intrauterine
device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS). Birth control must be practiced from
Screening and continue throughout the study and for 30 days after the final study drug
administration. In addition, sperm donation will not be allowed throughout the study
and for 30 days after the final study drug administration.

- Subject agrees not to participate in another interventional study while on treatment.

Inclusion Criteria assessed at Visit 2 (Baseline) based on the 3-day diary:

- Subject continues to meet all inclusion criteria of Visit 1 (Screening).

- Subject must experience an average of 8 or more micturitions per day over the 3-day
diary period.

- Subject must experience an average of 2 episodes of urgency per day (grade 3 or 4)
over the 3-diary period

Exclusion Criteria assessed at Visit 1 (Screening):

125 mL.

- Subject has hematuria >3 rbc/hpf that has not been fully evaluated.

- Subject has evidence of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). Urine culture and sensitivity
will be performed for positive leukocytes, nitrites, or turbidity and will be
confirmed with a culture greater than 100,000 cfu/mL. If a subject has a UTI, at
