Multiple Sclerosis, Neurogenic Bladder, Urinary Incontinence
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of OnabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®) for the treatment of urinary incontinence due to NDO in non-catheterizing patients with MS.
Interventions
OnabotulinumtoxinA 100 U is administered into the detrusor at Day 1 in the onabotulinumtoxinA 100 U arm. After a minimum of 12 weeks, patients in both the onabotulinumtoxinA 100 U arm and the placebo arm could request/qualify for an onabotulinumtoxinA injection.
Placebo (normal saline) is administered into the detrusor at Day 1.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* At least 3 episodes of urinary incontinence over a 3-day period * History of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) * Urinary incontinence not adequately controlled by anticholinergic medication
Exclusion criteria
* Current use of intermittent catheter or indwelling catheter to manage urinary incontinence * Previous or current botulinum toxin therapy of any serotype for any urological condition * Previous or current botulinum toxin therapy of any serotype for any non-urological condition within the last 12 weeks * Diagnosis of myasthenia gravis, Eaton-Lambert Syndrome, or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline in Daily Average Frequency of Urinary Incontinence Episodes | Baseline, Week 6 | Incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine as recorded in a patient bladder diary. The number of episodes of urinary incontinence is recorded over a 3-day period the week of the study visit. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in incontinence episodes (improvement) and a positive number change indicates an increase in incontinence episodes (worsening). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline in Maximum Cystometric Capacity (MCC) | Baseline, Week 6 | MCC represents the maximum volume of urine the bladder holds. A positive number change from baseline represents an improvement (increase) in the maximum volume of urine the bladder holds and a negative number change from baseline represents a worsening (decrease) in the maximum volume of urine the bladder holds. |
| Change From Baseline in Maximum Detrusor Pressure During the First Involuntary Detrusor Contraction (IDC) | Baseline, Week 6 | Maximum detrusor pressure represents the maximum pressure (peak amplitude) in the bladder during the first involuntary contraction of the bladder muscle. A negative number change from baseline indicates an improvement in pressure and a positive number change from baseline indicates a worsening in pressure. |
| Change From Baseline in Incontinence Quality of Life Instrument (I-QOL) Total Summary Score | Baseline, Week 6 | The I-QOL is a validated, disease-specific quality of life (QOL) questionnaire containing 22 questions designed to measure impact of urinary incontinence on patients' lives. Each question is answered on a 5-point scale (1 = worst QOL, and 5 = best QOL). The scores are totaled over the 22 questions and normalized to a score of 0-100 (0=worst QOL and 100=best QOL). A positive change from baseline represents an improvement and a negative change from baseline represents a worsening. |

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Duration of Treatment Effect Through Week 52 | Up to 52 Weeks | The duration of treatment effect is the time to patient request for retreatment. |

Outcome results
Change From Baseline in Daily Average Frequency of Urinary Incontinence Episodes
Incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine as recorded in a patient bladder diary. The number of episodes of urinary incontinence is recorded over a 3-day period the week of the study visit. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in incontinence episodes (improvement) and a positive number change indicates an increase in incontinence episodes (worsening).
