Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of beta-alanine in combination with pelvic floor muscle training PFMT compared to PFMT plus placebo in men undergoing radical prostatectomy
Detailed Description: This study will assess efficacy of beta-alanine in combination with PFMT for the treatment of participants with urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy B-alanine is a component of L-carnosine with L-histidine which is needed for its synthesis Βeta-alanine thanks to its bioavailability is a commonly used supplement that can improve exercise performance by increasing the amount of carnosine in striated muscle tissues Supplementation of beta-alanine in elderly patients has resulted in an increase in physical activity less fatigue and overall increase in L-carnosine concentration in muscles PFMT utilization is considered a strong predictor of early return of urinary continence after radical prostatectomy RP We hypothesize that combination of PFMT with beta-alanine could result in improved urinary continence after RP The intervention will start 30 days before the surgery and will continue until primary outcome is met Beta-alanineplacebo will be given daily Efficacy pharmacokinetics biomarkers tissue histology participants reported outcomes and safety will be assessed The total duration of study will be approximately 6 months
