Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43866   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7287   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The purpose of this study is to determine whether injections of Botulinum toxin type A into muscles of one or both upper limbs (UL) alone or in combination with injections into one or both lower limbs (LL) are effective and safe in treating children/adolescents (age 2-17 years) with spasticity due to cerebral palsy.
    Protection of trial subjects
    High medical and ethical standards were followed in accordance with Good Clinical Practice and other applicable regulations. In addition, an independent data monitoring committee was in charge of monitoring patient safety while the study was ongoing.

    On Day 1 of MP, subjects randomized to low dose group received intramuscular injections of 2 U/kg NT 201 (maximum of 50 U in subjects with more than [>] 25 kilogram [kg] BW) into spastic muscles of one of the UL.

    End point title
    MP: Change From Baseline in Ashworth Scale (AS) in UL Primary Clinical Target Pattern at Week 4
    End point description
    The AS categorizes severity of spasticity by judging resistance to passive movement. Spasticity was assessed by using the 5-point AS with:0 (no increase in tone); 1 (slight increase in tone giving a “catch” when the limb was moved in flexion or extension); 2 (more marked increase in tone, but limb easily flexed); 3 (considerable increase in tone -passive movements difficult); 4 (limb rigid in flexion or extension). Values represent least square (LS) mean differences between baseline and Week 4 resulting from Mixed Model Repeated Measurement (MMRM) models comparing high versus low and in a second step mid versus low dose groups, respectively. Values for the low group may differ slightly depending on the comparison and are therefore provided separately for each comparison. Here “n” was the number of subjects who were evaluable for this measure at a given time period and were included in the assessment. The value 999 indicates that no data is available from the respective specific model.

    Co-primary Variable MP: Investigator's Global Impression of Change Scale (GICS) at Week 4
    End point description
    The GICS was used to measure independently the investigator’s impression of change due to treatment. The response option was a common 7-point Likert scale, that ranges from +3 (very much improved); +2 (much improved); +1 (minimally improved); 0 (no change); -1 (minimally worse); -2 (much worse); -3 (very much worse). Values represent LS mean differences between baseline and Week 4 resulting from ANCOVA models comparing high versus low and in a second step mid versus low dose groups, respectively. Values for the low group may differ slightly depending on the comparison and are therefore provided separately for each comparison. Here “n” was the number of subjects who were evaluable for this measure at given time period and were included in the assessment.

    MP: Change From Baseline in AS score of the Other Treated UL Main Clinical Target Pattern at Week 4
    End point description
    The AS categorizes the severity of spasticity by judging resistance to passive movement. Spasticity was assessed by 5-point scale at visits, where: 0 (no increase in tone); 1(slight increase in tone giving a “catch” when the limb was moved in flexion or extension); 2(more marked increase in tone, but limb easily flexed); 3(considerable increase in tone - passive movements difficult); 4(limb rigid in flexion or extension). Values represent LS mean differences between baseline and Week 4 resulting from MMRM models comparing high versus low and in a second step mid versus low dose groups, respectively. Values for the low group may differ slightly depending on the comparison and are therefore provided separately for each comparison. Here “n” was the number of subjects who were evaluable for this measure at given time period and were included in the assessment. The value 999 indicates that no data is available from the respective specific model.

    Pain intensity (from subjects) and pain frequency (from parent/caregiver) to be assessed with QPS. The QPS Total Score for pain intensity ranges from 0 ('No Hurt') to 10 ('Hurt Worst'). The QPS Total Score for the observed pain frequency ranges from 0 (Never) to 4 (Always). Values represent LS mean differences between baseline and Week 4 resulting from MMRM models comparing high versus low and in a second step mid versus low dose groups, respectively. Values for the low group may differ slightly depending on the comparison and are therefore provided separately for each comparison.

    MP: Child's/Adolescent's, and Parent's/Caregiver's GICS in UL at Week 4
    End point description
    The GICS was used to measure independently the child’s/adolescent’s, and parent’s or caregiver’s impression of change due to treatment. The response option was a common 7-point Likert scale, that ranges from: +3(very much improved); +2(much improved); +1(minimally improved); 0(no change); -1(minimally worse); -2(much worse); -3(very much worse). Values represent LS mean differences between baseline and Week 4 resulting from ANCOVA models comparing high versus low and in a second step mid versus low dose groups, respectively. Values for the low group may differ slightly depending on the comparison and are therefore provided separately for each comparison. Here “n” was the number of subjects who were evaluable for this measure at a given time period and were included in the assessment. The value 999 indicates that no data is available from the respective specific model.
