Inclusion criteria

1. Age between 18 and 75 years old inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent, regardless of gender. 2. Subjects with unilateral hemiplegia due to stroke (with a time interval of ≥ 3 months from stroke onset to randomized enrollment) exhibiting upper limb spasticity. 3. Subjects with Disability Assessment Scale score of at least 2 on the Principal Target of Treatment (one of four functional domains: hygiene, dressing, limb position and pain). 4. If taking oral antispasticity, the dosage must be stable for at least 1 month prior to randomized enrollment. 5. If the study limb receives physical therapy or occupational therapy, the frequency, type, and intensity must be stable for at least 3 weeks prior to randomized enrollment.

Exclusion criteria

1. History of allergy to any component of the experimental drugs. 2. Previous use of any botulinum toxin within 6 months prior to randomized enrollment, or plan to use other botulinum toxins not specified in the study protocol during the study. 3. Fixed contractures of the studied limb. 4. Any medical condition that may increase the risk to the subject when using Botulinum Toxin Type A. 5. Need for treatment with drugs that interfere with neuromuscular function during the study. 6. Plan or anticipate to use new antispasticity drugs during the study. 7. History of epilepsy. 8. Pregnant or breastfeeding women. 9. Participation in other drug/device clinical trials within 1 month prior to randomized enrollment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) Score of Primary Target Clinical Pattern at Week 4Week 4 after treatmentPrimary target clinical pattern was defined by investigator for each subject at baseline visit and was either flexed elbow or flexed wrist or clenched fist. The Modified Ashworth Scale is well known and commonly used in clinical trials with spasticity. It was used to categorize severity of spasticity by judging resistance to passive movement. It is a 6-point scale that ranges from 0 (=no increase in tone) to 4 (=limb rigid in flexion or extension).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score at Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12 after treatmentThe Physician's Global Assessment is used to measure the investigator's impression of change due to treatment. The response option is a common 7-point scale that ranges from -3 = very much worse to +3 = very much improved.
Change From Baseline in MAS Score of Primary Target Clinical Pattern at Week 1, Week 8, Week 12Week 1, Week 8 and Week 12 after treatment
Response Rates on MAS Calculated for the Primary Target Clinical Pattern at Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12 after treatmentPrimary target clinical pattern was defined by investigator for each subject at baseline visit and was either flexed elbow or flexed wrist or clenched fist. Subjects with a MAS reduction of one point were defined as responder.
Changes From Baseline in Disability Assessment Scale (DAS)- Principal Therapeutic Target Domain at Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12Week 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12 after treatmentThe DAS consists of the four domains hygiene, dressing, limb position and pain which were assessed on a 4-point scale with the values 0 (=no disability), 1 (=mild disability), 2 (=moderate disability), and 3 (=severe disability).
Incidence of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse EventsWithin 12 weeks of treatment
Incidence of Anti-drug Antibodies and Neutralizing AntibodiesWithin 12 weeks of treatment
