Trial Outcomes & Findings for Kinematic-guided BoNT-A Treatment for ET and PD Tremor (NCT NCT02427646)

NCT ID: NCT02427646

Last Updated: 2019-08-20

Results Overview

Improvement in hand tremor as determined by a reduction of \>8 points on a standardized clinical assessment tool (Fahn-Tolosa-Marin Tremor Assessment Scale) pre and post Xeomin® injection using kinematic guided injection parameters for both IPD and ET. Lower scores indicate a better outcome. Means and standard deviations are provided in the data tables. FTM minimum and maximum scores range from 0 to 92 FTM points.

Participant Flow

Protocol enrollment identifies participants who agreed to participate and sign the consent form (total N=54). However, in the total started participant flow, two participants did not have a high enough tremor severity or consistent tremor severity during the scripted tasks held during the kinematic technology assessment, leaving N=52 in the study

Measure
Essential Tremor Treatment
IncobotulinumtoxinA: A serotype of botulinum toxins that has specificity for cleavage of SYNAPTOSOMAL-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN 25 (SNAP-25). BoNT-A's pharmacological action is to inhibit the release of acetylcholine from the neuromuscular junction. BoNT-A peripherally applied using optimal parameters by intramuscular injections to treat tremor in the most bothersome upper extremity every 16 weeks over 96 weeks. The study will be extended for those participants who benefited and will receive treatment every 12 weeks over 96 weeks. BoNT-A dose will range from 50-300 U per arm.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 96 weeks

Population: Mean kinematic tremor amplitude was compared from baseline to each time-point. Here we state the baseline and final visit tremor amplitudes per group

For two subgroups of participants: (A) those with a \> 8 point improvement on the tremor rating scale and (B) those with a change ≤ 8 points on the tremor rating scale, Group A will have 50% reduction in overall tremor amplitude as measured by kinematics. Kinematic measures were graphically represented as mean angular RMS amplitude and standard deviations of the population at the wrist over three trials during scripted task. Kinematic tremor analysis is shown in angular root mean square (RMS) amplitudes
