What is being measured

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

  1. Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale) of wrist flexor

    Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale: Measures resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching; score 0 to 4, 4 being most difficult passive movement) of wrist flexor in subjects with post stroke upper limb spasticity at week 4 after administration compared to baseline.

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale) of elbow flexor and finger flexor

    Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale: Measures resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching; score 0 to 4, 4 being most difficult passive movement) of elbow flexor and finger flexor at week 4 and 16 after administration compared to baseline, and at 4 weeks after re-administration compared to the time of re-visit.

    Measured: 4 weeks, 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  2. Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale) of wrist flexor

    Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale: Measures resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching; score 0 to 4, 4 being most difficult passive movement) of wrist flexor at week 16 after administration compared to baseline, and at 4 weeks after re-administration compared to the time of re-visit.

    Measured: 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  3. The effective rate of wrist flexor, elbow flexor, and finger flexor

    The effective rate of wrist flexor, elbow flexor, and finger flexor at week 4 and 16 compared to baseline and at week 4 after re-administration compared to re-visit, defining the muscle with MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale: Measures resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching; score 0 to 4, 4 being most difficult passive movement) score of ≥1 among the wrist flexor, elbow flexor, and finger flexor muscles as responders when the MAS is reduced by 1 score compared to baseline (week 0).

    Measured: 4 weeks, 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  4. Change in DAS (Disability Assessment Scale) score

    Change in score of goal assessment section in DAS (Disability Assessment Scale: Measures disability associated with upper limb spasticity in patients; score 0 to 3, 3 being the most severe disability) at week 4 and 16 compared to baseline and at week 4 after re-administration compared to re-visit.

    Measured: 4 weeks, 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  5. Change in QOL (SF-36v2; Quality of Life) score

    Change in score of Short Form 36 ver.2 (SF-36v2; Quality of Life, QOL: a questionnaire with 36 questions regarding general health change affecting patient's quality of life; score from 1 up to 5, from minimum to high impact on quality of life) at week 4 and 16 compared to baseline and at week 4 after re-administration compared to re-visit.

    Measured: 4 weeks, 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  6. Subject's or caregiver's global assessment

    Subject's or caregiver's global assessment (rating from -3 to +3 on the overall treatment effect, with +3 being very satisfied with treatment) at week 4 and 16 compared to baseline and at week 4 after re-administration compared to re-visit.

    Measured: 4 weeks, 16 weeks, and 4 weeks after re-visit

  7. Number of participants with Adverse Events (AEs) to assess safety of investigational product.

    Safety of IP assessed by the number of partiicipants with adverse events determined by MedDra ver 16.0 from enrollment to the end of study.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Meditoxin in people with Spasticity, Muscle, run by Medy-Tox.

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 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Change in muscle tone determined by MAS (Modified Ashworth Scale) of wrist flexor (time frame: 4 weeks). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Apr 2019.
