Trial Outcomes & Findings for Comparison of Two Commercial Preparations of Botulinum Toxin Type A (NCT NCT00959907)

NCT ID: NCT00959907

Last Updated: 2009-12-15

Results Overview

Minor's test permits the visualization of the effect of botulinum toxin in the injected area,also called action halos. Mirror is a computer program that allows, through photogrpahs, measuring the horizontal diameter and the area of action halos.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 28 days

Population: The analysis was intention to treat (ITT); One drop out, from baseline to visit 1(intervention) and 3 drop outs from visit 1 to visit 2 (28 days after botulinum toxin injections). Started 59 volunteers - 4 drop outs, there was 55 volunteers in the first analysis.

Minor's test permits the visualization of the effect of botulinum toxin in the injected area,also called action halos. Mirror is a computer program that allows, through photogrpahs, measuring the horizontal diameter and the area of action halos.
