Cervical Dystonia

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well a new drug called Dysport NG works and how safe it is, when it is used for the treatment of cervical dystonia. Dysport NG will be compared to an approved drug called Dysport.

Detailed description

The primary study objectives will be assessed in terms of improvement of the subject's CD at a pre-defined time point after treatment. The primary study objectives are to demonstrate the superiority of Dysport NG to placebo in terms of efficacy and to test the non-inferior efficacy of Dysport NG, when compared to Dysport, in CD subjects. In addition to testing for the primary study objectives, the superiority in terms of efficacy of Dysport versus placebo, will be assessed. This clinical study was designed and implemented and reported in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Harmonized Tripartite Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice (GCP), with applicable local regulations (including European Directive 2001/20/EC, US Code of Federal Regulations Title 21, and with the ethical principles laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki. A large body of evidence demonstrates the safety and efficacy of Dysport across several clinical indications. This study was the first use of Dysport NG in humans with CD. The active substance (BTX-A-HAC) in Dysport NG was the same as in the currently marketed Dysport product and had the same mechanism of action. Dysport NG was, therefore, expected to have the same efficacy and safety profile in humans as Dysport, with the advantage of eliminating the potential risk of transmission of infective agents, by the substitution of plant and synthetic products for human and animal-derived products. However, due to the change of excipient, thorough assessment of the safety and efficacy of Dysport NG is necessary. Previous clinical studies indicate that the maximum effect of Dysport and maximum improvements in CD are observed approximately 4 weeks post treatment, after which there is a gradual return to baseline disease status. The Week 4 follow up visit after the first treatment cycle was therefore, chosen as the primary time point of interest. Retreatment is necessary in order to maintain the beneficial effect and the long term treatment of CD. Previously conducted long term studies demonstrate the maintenance of the therapeutic effect of Dysport following repeated treatments, with a favourable short and long term safety and immunogenicity profile.

Change From Baseline in Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS) Total Score Following First Treatment CycleBaseline and Week 4TWSTRS measures the degree of CD and is comprised of three different components, namely Severity, Disability and Pain subscales. There is an ordinal scale score and range for each component. Severity scores range from 0 (absence of severity) to 35 (maximum severity), Disability scores range from 0 (no disability) to 30 (maximum disability) and Pain scores range from 0 (no pain) to 20 (maximum pain). TWSTRS Total score is the sum of the 3 component scores ranging from 0 to a maximum of 85, with higher scores denoting worse outcome.

Severity scores range from 0 (absence of severity) to 35 (maximum severity), Disability scores range from 0 (no disability) to 30 (maximum disability) and Pain scores range from 0 (no pain) to 20 (maximum pain). TWSTRS Total score is the sum of the 3 component scores ranging from 0 to a maximum of 85, with higher scores denoting worse outcome. If the change from baseline is negative, this represents an improvement in symptoms.

Percentage of Treatment Responders Following First Treatment Cycle

A treatment responder was defined as a patient with \>30% improvement in TWSTRS Total score compared to baseline. TWSTRS measures the degree of CD and is comprised of three different components, namely Severity, Disability and Pain subscales. There is an ordinal scale score and range for each component. Severity scores range from 0 (absence of severity) to 35 (maximum severity), Disability scores range from 0 (no disability) to 30 (maximum disability) and Pain scores range from 0 (no pain) to 20 (maximum pain). TWSTRS Total score is the sum of the 3 component scores ranging from 0 to a maximum of 85, with higher scores denoting worse outcome. If the change from baseline is negative, this represents an improvement in symptoms.

Time frame: Baseline and Week 4

Population: Analysis based on number (n) of subjects in the ITT population (all randomised subjects who received at least one injection of study treatment regardless of the amount of study treatment administered). The ITT population was analysed using subjects as randomised. Missing data were not imputed.
