Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: -Female or male subjects from 20 to 80 (inclusive) years of age (less than 65 years during lead-in tolerability period). -Body weight at least 50 kg. -Unilateral lower-limb spasticity presenting with equinus foot deformity (condition of plantar flexion at the ankle joint) caused by a stroke at least 6 months before respective screening visit. -Botulinum toxin-naive or pretreated patients with post-stroke spasticity of the LL (for pretreated subjects the last Botulinum toxin treatment must have been at least 16 weeks before the respective screening visit. -Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) score of plantar flexors at least 3. -Spasticity is present in the clinical pattern pes equinus that contributes to the subject's gait impairment.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: -Fixed contracture or other muscle hypertonia in the affected joint(s) intended to be treated. -Bilateral lower-limb paresis, paralysis or tetraparesis. -Surgery in the target limb for any indication within the 8 weeks before screening or within the screening period. -Any previous and planned surgical treatment for spasticity in the target muscle(s). -Severe atrophy of the target limb muscles. -Any previous or planned treatment with phenol- or alcohol-injection into the target limb, as well as any planned treatment with phenol- or alcohol-injection in any body region scheduled for any time during the study. -Treatment with parenterally administered drugs that interfere with neuromuscular transmission, aminoquinolines, or local anesthetics in the treated region within the two weeks before screening, within the screening period, and/or intended to be administered during the study. -Antispastic medication with peripheral muscle relaxants administered within the two weeks before screening, within the screening period, or intended to be administered during the study.
