Trial summary

Dystonia is a disabling symptom affecting both patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical parkinsonism (AP). Botulinum toxinum (BoNT), by blocking muscle contraction, is a possible treatment for focal dystonia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Botulinum Toxin for the Treatment of Dystonia Associated With Parkinson's Disease and Atypical Parkinsonism: a Monocentric Cohort Study With Patient Reported Outcome

Dystonia is a disabling symptom affecting both patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical parkinsonism (AP).

Botulinum toxinum (BoNT), by blocking muscle contraction, is a possible treatment for focal dystonia.

The benefit of BoNT treatment has been proven in some focal dystonia associated with PD or AP.

The investigators aim to give an overview of the efficacy of BoNT in a variety of focal dystonia in a large cohort of parkinsonian patients.

Patients with atypical Parkinsonism or Parkinson's disease and no dystoniaPatients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease or atypical parkinsonism and without reported dystonia

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the patient reported efficacy of botulinum toxin treatment between PD and AP patients

    Evaluation by the patient of the efficacy of the former injection on an improvement scale ranging from 0 to 100% (minimum value : 0, maximum value : 100, higher scores mean a better outcome) systematically made in routine care during follow up appointment

    Measured: Up to twelve months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comparison of the patient reported duration of improvement after treatment by botulinum toxin between PD and AP patients

    Evaluation by the patient of the duration of the period during which symptoms were improved (in weeks) systematically made in routine care during follow up appointment

    Measured: Up to twelve months

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of the patient reported efficacy of botulinum toxin treatment between PD and AP patients (time frame: Up to twelve months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04948684, which also lists 9 linked publications.
