    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective was to assess the responder rate as defined by the improvement of composite active range of motion (AROM) in the primary targeted limb, either upper limb (UL) or lower limb (LL), depending on which one was selected as a primary treatment target (TT), following two consecutive Dysport injections combined with a Guided Self-rehabilitation Contract (GSC) in participants with spastic hemiparesis following acquired brain injury (ABI).
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study was conducted under the provisions of the Declaration of Helsinki, in accordance with the International Council for Harmonisation Consolidated Guideline on Good Clinical Practice, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), 21 Code of Federal Regulations Part 11, Electronic Records, Electronic Signatures and FDA Guidance, Industry Computerized Systems Used in Clinical Trials and in compliance with Independent Ethics Committees/Institutional Review Boards and informed consent regulations. In addition, the study adhered to local regulatory requirements.
    Background therapy
    Each participant received a personalised rehabilitation programme. The physiotherapist taught each participant the stretching postures and exercises to perform on a daily basis throughout the study. These were tailored to the individual participant's needs and formed the GSC therapy. The main focus was on the primary TT limb and then the other limb.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This multicentre, single-arm study was conducted in 18 centres between 22 December 2016 and 18 July 2018 in participants with spastic hemiparesis due to ABI. The study had 2 treatment cycles separated by at least 12 (maximum 20) weeks and combined with GSC for the whole study duration.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    A total of 157 participants were treated in this study. At baseline (Cycle 1, Day 1), the primary TT limb (UL or LL) was defined by the investigator, following discussion with the participant. If the primary TT limb was the UL, the secondary TT limb was the LL (and vice versa).

    Dysport
    Arm description
    Dysport (AbobotulinumtoxinA) 1500 units (U) intramuscular (IM) injection, was administered as a split dose, in both the UL and LL on Day 1 of each treatment cycle. The dose given in each limb was based on which was considered the primary TT limb at baseline. At least half the total dose must have been injected in the primary TT limb and a maximum of 1000 U could be injected in an UL (even if it was the primary TT limb). There was no maximum dose that could have been injected in a LL, provided that some out of the 1500 U total was used for the UL injection. The second Dysport injection (Cycle 2) may have been given in a different split to the first injection (Cycle 1), at the discretion of the investigator. However, the same minimal/maximal rules applied. The primary TT remained the same for both Dysport injections. Participants were also asked to perform daily GSC therapy throughout the study.

    Percentage of Responder Participants at Week 6 After the Second Injection, According to Composite AROM in the Primary TT Limb [1]
    End point description
    Percentage of responder participants according to composite AROM was measured by goniometer in the primary TT limb, using zero as the theoretical position of minimal stretch for the muscle assessed. Participants were asked to perform the active movement as far as possible against that muscle and the angle was measured. A participant was considered a responder if he/she achieved at least the predefined improvement threshold - larger or equal to 35 degrees in UL or 5 degrees in LL - in the primary TT limb (based on the composite AROM individual change from baseline to Week 6 after the second injection). The modified ITT (mITT) population included all participants who were injected at least once with the study treatment, who received at least 1 day of GSC therapy during the study, for whom a primary TT limb had been defined and who had the primary efficacy outcome assessed at Week 6, Cycle 2.

    Mean Change From Baseline in AROM Against 10 Prespecified Muscle Groups at Week 6 and Week 12 of Each Treatment Cycle, Reinjection Cycle Visit and Last Study Visit
    End point description
    AROM was measured by goniometer in primary TT limb, using zero as theoretical position of minimal stretch for muscle assessed. Participants were asked to perform active movement as far as possible against that muscle and angle was measured. Angle of joint movement was measured in 10 prespecified muscle groups (injected or noninjected); UL: shoulder extensors(SE), elbow flexors(EF), wrist flexors(WF), extrinsic finger flexors(FF) and pronator teres(PT), LL: soleus(Sol), gastrocnemius(GN), gluteus maximus(GM), hamstrings(HS) and rectus femoris(RF). Reinjection cycle visit corresponds to Week 12, 16 or 20 of injection Cycle 1. Last study visit corresponds to last post-baseline visit performed by participant. ITT population included all participants who were injected at least once with study treatment, who received at least 1 day of GSC therapy during study and for whom a primary TT limb had been defined. n= number of participants analysed at each specific time point.

    Mean Change From Baseline in Modified Frenchay Scale (MFS) Overall Score Evaluated Locally and Centrally at Week 12 of Each Treatment Cycle and Last Study Visit
    End point description
    The MFS was used to measure active function in the UL. The MFS consists of 10 tasks, each of which was evaluated locally by the site investigator and centrally by a blinded central reviewer at the coordinating investigators' site, on a 10-point visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from "No movement" to "Normal". Higher score indicates a better outcome. The MFS overall scores were obtained by averaging all individual task scores, provided that at least 8 out of 10 were not missing. The mean change from baseline was calculated for the local and central assessments and a positive change from baseline indicates an improvement in active function. The ITT population included all participants who were injected at least once with the study treatment, who received at least 1 day of GSC therapy during the study and for whom a primary TT limb had been defined. Only participants with data available at each time point are presented. n = number of participants analysed at each specific time point.

    The 10-metre walking speed test (WST) was used to measure active function in the LL. The participant performed the WST barefoot without a walking aid. If it was absolutely necessary that the participant used a cane, this may have been permitted provided that the same cane was used at baseline and all other walking speed assessments for that participant. The participant was given instructions to walk at his/her maximum speed. The time taken for the participant to walk from the start to the end of the 10 metres was recorded. The ITT population included all participants who were injected at least once with the study treatment, who received at least 1 day of GSC therapy during the study and for whom a primary TT limb had been defined. n= number of participants analysed at each specific time point.

    Participant Satisfaction With the GSC at Week 6 and Week 12 of Each Treatment Cycle, Reinjection Cycle Visit and Last Study Visit
    End point description
    Each participant received a personalised rehabilitation programme. The physiotherapist taught each participant the stretching postures and exercises to perform on a daily basis throughout the study. These were tailored to the individual participant's needs and formed the GSC therapy. The main focus was on the primary TT limb and then the other limb. Participant satisfaction was determined by asking the question "How satisfied are you TODAY regarding the GSC?" Responses were recorded using a 5-level Likert scale, as follows: completely satisfied (+2), rather satisfied (+1), neither satisfied nor dissatisfied (0), rather dissatisfied (-1), and completely dissatisfied (-2). The ITT population included all participants who were injected at least once with the study treatment, who received at least 1 day of GSC therapy during the study and for whom a primary TT limb had been defined. n= number of participants analysed at each specific time point.

    Reporting group description
    Dysport 1500 U IM injection, was administered as a split dose, in both the UL and LL on Day 1 of each treatment cycle. The dose given in each limb was based on which was considered the primary TT limb at baseline. At least half the total dose must have been injected in the primary TT limb and a maximum of 1000 U could be injected in an UL (even if it was the primary TT limb). There was no maximum dose that could have been injected in a LL, provided that some out of the 1500 U total was used for the UL injection. The second Dysport injection (Cycle 2) may have been given in a different split to the first injection (Cycle 1), at the discretion of the investigator. However, the same minimal/maximal rules applied. The primary TT remained the same for both Dysport injections. Participants were also asked to perform daily GSC therapy throughout the study.
