Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety of multiple doses of DWP-450 (Botulinum purified neurotoxin, Type A) Injection in treatment of moderate to severe glabellar lines in adult subjects.

Detailed description

Three hundred and fifty subjects will be enrolled and injected with the study drug DWP-450 over the course of the 365 day study. Subjects with moderate or severe glabellar lines at maximum frown on the 4 point Glabellar Line Scale (GLS, 0=none, 1= mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe), as judged by the investigator, will be eligible for injection with DWP-450. After each injection, subjects will be followed and are eligible for a repeat injection if their GLS is ≥2 at maximum frown, as judged by the Investigator. If a subject does not have a GLS≥2 they will be followed monthly until eligible for repeat treatment. Subjects may receive up to a maximum of 4 treatments and will be followed for 365 days from initial treatment.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALBotulinum purified neurotoxin, Type A

The subject is to be injected intra-muscularly into a total of five sites: the mid-line of the procures muscle, the inferomedial aspect of each corrugator muscle and the superior middle aspect of each corrugator, at least 1 cm above the bony orbital rim. Each site is injected with 0.1 ml (4U), for a total of 20 U and 0.5 ml.

The Safety of Repeat DWP-450 Treatments - Proportion of Subjects With at Least One Adverse Event Over 1 Year

The primary safety analysis was the calculation of the proportion of subjects with at least one adverse event that occurred from Day 0 through Day 365.

Time frame: 365 Days

Population: 323 subjects had a GLS score at rest \>0 (i.e., 1, 2 or 3) at baseline and therefore could potentially have had a ≥1 point improvement in GLS score at rest at a post-baseline visit; 32 were missing the EOS GLS assessment
