Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age between 18 and 75 years old inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent, regardless of gender.
  2. Subjects with unilateral hemiplegia due to stroke (with a time interval of ≥ 3 months from stroke onset to enrollment) exhibiting upper limb spasticity.
  3. Subjects with Disability Assessment Scale score of at least 2 on the Principal Target of Treatment (one of four functional domains: hygiene, dressing, limb position and pain).

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. History of allergy to any component of the experimental drugs.
  2. Previous use of any botulinum toxin within 6 months prior to enrollment, or plan to use other botulinum toxins not specified in the study protocol during the study.
  3. Fixed contractures of the studied limb.
  4. Any medical condition that may increase the risk to the subject when using botulinum toxin type A.
  5. Need for treatment with drugs that interfere with neuromuscular function during the study.
  6. Plan or anticipate to use new antispasticity drugs during the study.
  7. History of epilepsy.
  8. Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
  9. Participation in other drug/device clinical trials within 1 month prior to enrollment.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Recombinant botulinum toxin type A (YY001)
Multiple injection with recombinant botulinum toxin type A for injection (YY001) in upper limb spasticity

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Incidence of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
Time Frame: Up to 48 weeks
Up to 48 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) Score
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
The Physician's Global Assessment is used to measure the investigator's impression of change due to treatment. The response option is a common 7-point scale that ranges from -3 = very much worse to +3 = very much improved.
Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
Change From Baseline in MAS Score of Primary Target Clinical Pattern
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment

Primary target clinical pattern was defined by investigator for each subject at baseline visit and was either flexed elbow or flexed wrist or clenched fist.

The Modified Ashworth Scale is well known and commonly used in clinical trials with spasticity. It was used to categorize severity of spasticity by judging resistance to passive movement. It is a 6-point scale that ranges from 0 (=no increase in tone) to 4 (=limb rigid in flexion or extension).

Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
Response Rates on MAS Calculated for the Primary Target Clinical Pattern
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment

Primary target clinical pattern was defined by investigator for each subject at baseline visit and was either flexed elbow or flexed wrist or clenched fist.

Subjects with a MAS reduction of one point were defined as responder.

Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
The Proportion with Disability Assessment Scale (DAS)- Principal Therapeutic Target Domain Score Reduction of ≥1 Point
Time Frame: Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
The DAS consists of the four domains hygiene, dressing, limb position and pain which were assessed on a 4-point scale with the values 0 (=no disability), 1 (=mild disability), 2 (=moderate disability), and 3 (=severe disability).
Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 after each treatment
Incidence of Anti-drug Antibodies and Neutralizing Antibodies
Time Frame: Up to 48 weeks
Up to 48 weeks
