NCT01313767

Brief Summary

This study is a randomized, double blind, multi-center, active drug controlled, phase III clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of MEDITOXIN® versus BOTOX® in treatment of post stroke upper limb(wrist, finger, thumb) spasticity Approximately 196 subjects(1:1 group ratio)will be enrolled. Subjects will receive a single treatment of intramuscular Investigational product up to 360U. The subjects will be observed every 4 weeks until 12 weeks post injection. Outcome measures include Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Disability Assessment Scale (DAS), Global Assessment Scale(patient or caregiver/investigator) and Carer burden scale. The primary efficacy endpoint is the change from baseline at week 4 for wrist flexor muscle tone as measured on the Modified Ashworth Scale. Safety parameters will also be measured including adverse events, vital signs and clinical laboratory tests (haematology, serum chemistry and urinanalysis).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • MAS(Modified Ashworth Scale) of Wrist Flexor

    Change from baseline at week 4 for wrist flexor muscle tone as measured on the MAS(Modified Ashworth Scale). The Modified Ashworth Scale is a well known and commonly used scale in clinical trials with spasticity. It was considered to be the best clinical tool for measuring resistance to movement. It was used to categorize the severity of spasticity by judging resistance to passive movement. It is a 5-point scale that ranges from 0 (=no increase in tone) to 4 (=limb rigid in flexion or extension).

    Baseline and 4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • MAS(Modified Ashworth Scale) of Wrist Flexor

    Baseline, week 8 and week 12

  • MAS(Modified Ashworth Score) of Elbow Flexor

    Baseline, week 4, week 8 and week 12

  • MAS(Modified Ashworth Score) of Finger Flexor

    Baseline, week 4, week 8 and week 12

  • MAS(Modified Ashworth Score) of Thumb Flexor

    Baseline, week 4, week 8 and week 12

  • Improvement Rate on the MAS(Modified Ashworth Score) of Wrist Flexor

    week 4, week 8, week 12

  • +13 more secondary outcomes
