Trial Outcomes & Findings for Comparison of Two Botulinum Type A Products in the Treatment of Blepharospasm (NCT NCT00761592)

NCT ID: NCT00761592

Last Updated: 2013-11-19

Results Overview

Blepharospasm Disability Index is a validated 5-point scale (0-4) with six items (e.g., reading, driving a vehicle). 0 - no impairment, 1 - mild impairment, 2 - moderate impairment, 3 - severe impairment, 4 - not possible due to disease, N/A - Not applicable. The total score ranged from 0 (no impairment) to 24 (not possible due to disease). A negative change from baseline indicated improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 8

Population: Intention to Treat

Jankovic Rating Scale Severity: 0 - None; 1 - Minimal; 2 - Mild; 3 - Moderate; 4 - Severe. Frequency: 0 - None; 1 - Slight increase; 2 - Fluttering duration less than 1 second; 3 - Spasm greater than 1 second and eyes open \> 50% of waking time; 4 - Functionally blind. The range of the total score was from 0 (None) to 8 (Severe and Functionally Blind). A negative change from baseline indicated improvement.
