E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The objective of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of NT 201 in repeat dose treatment for the treatment of glabellar frown lines. Subsequent cycles of treatment will be administered to the patient. As many treatment cycles as appropriate (eight at a maximum for patients from studies MRZ 60201-0527/1 and MRZ 60201-0520/1, and two at a maximum for patients from studies MRZ 60201-0724/1 and MRZ 60201-0741/1) according to the wish of the patient and the criterion for repeat dose injections assessed by the investigator may be administered until the study ends. The study will investigate endpoints of safety including immunogenicity as well as efficacy endpoints. |
