Brief summary

Open label study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of MYOBLOC (Botulinum Toxin Type B) in adult patients with a clinical diagnosis of Cervical Dystonia (CD).

Detailed description

This is an open-label study aimed to assess long-term safety and immunogenicity of MYOBLOC (Botulinum Toxin Type B) in adult patients with a clinical diagnosis of Cervical Dystonia (CD). Up to 500 adult patients with a confirmed clinical diagnosis of CD are planned for enrollment into this open label study. These patients will be Type B toxin naive patients with CD. During this study, patients will receive repeat injections of MYOBLOC every 12 weeks when deemed appropriate by the Investigator. Injections should not occur more frequently than every 12 weeks. Total duration of exposure to MYOBLOC will be targeted for at least two years, with potential exposure for up to 7 years in patients with earliest enrollment.

Interventions

Eligible patients could receive injections of MYOBLOC once every 12 weeks. Total Dose could range from 5,000 Units up to 25,000 Units.
