The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Average total dose of AboBoNT-A for focal upper limb and/or lower limb spasticity per treatment session

    Measured: From baseline (when each patient received their first treatment) to 52 weeks (±6 weeks) post baseline

  2. Average interval between AboBoNT-A injections throughout the observation period for focal ULS and/or LLS

    Measured: From baseline to 52 weeks (±6 weeks) post baseline

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Average age at diagnosis of neurological condition

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Average age at first AboBoNT-A injection

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Average age at diagnosis of spasticity

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Sex distribution (Male, Female)

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Presence of underlying neurological condition: stroke, injury, chronic disease (multiple sclerosis, other)

    Measured: Baseline

  6. Presence of location of spasticity (specify: right lower limb, left lower limb, right upper limb, left upper limb, unilateral, bilateral spasticity for lower and upper limb)

    Data collected at index date up to 6 weeks prior to index date (when each patient received their first treatment)

    Measured: Baseline

  7. Presence of previous spasticity-related treatments ongoing at index event, if available: antispasticity medications, pain medications and opioids, neurolytic agent, surgery, physiotherapy and occupational therapy

    Measured: Baseline

  8. Presence of comorbidities: bowel conditions (irritable bowel syndrome, irritable bowel disease), urinary tract infections, chest infections, anxiety or depression, alcohol dependence/substance abuse.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Upper and/or Lower Limb Focal Spasticity, run by Ipsen at 3 sites in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average total dose of AboBoNT-A for focal upper limb and/or lower limb spasticity per treatment session (time frame: From baseline (when each patient received their first treatment) to 52 weeks (±6 weeks) post baseline). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
