D.8 Information on Placebo
E. General Information on the Trial
E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
Spasticity of the Gastrocnemius Muscle due to Cerebral Palsy
MedDRA Classification
E.1.2 Medical condition or disease under investigation
E.1.2Version 8.0
E.1.2Level LLT
E.1.2Classification code 10024132
E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
To determine whether BoNT-A treatment of the gastrocnemius muscle is more effective in the reduction of spasticity if it is administered by multiple injections (test) or the standard double injection technique (reference). This will be determined by analysing the change in gait 4 weeks after each treatments using the physician's rating index.
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
- Comparison of the change in gait at all other assessment timepoints.
- Comparison of patient, parent and nurse pain scores (using FACES and VAS scales) for the two injection techniques.
- Comparison of the safety of the two injection techniques.
E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study Information not present in EudraCT
E.3Principal inclusion criteria
1. The patient’s legal parent/guardian must give written (personally signed and dated) informed consent, and the patient must give informed assent before completing any study-related procedure, which means any assessment or evaluation that would not have formed part of their normal medical care.
2. The patient must be between 4 and 12 years of age inclusive.
3. The patient must have a diagnosis of hemiplegic or diplegic cerebral palsy.
4. The patient must be able to walk with or without the use of aids.
5. The patient must have spasticity of the Gastrocnemius muscle on one or both sides, as measured by an inability to achieve heel strike due to lower limb spasticity predominantly affecting the calf muscles.
6. The patient and his/her parent/guardian must be able and willing to comply with the requirements of the protocol.
E.4Principal exclusion criteria
1. The patient has calf muscle contractures preventing dorsiflexion of the foot to less than the neutral position with the knee straight.
2. The patient also needs treatment to the adjacent Soleus or Tibialis Posterior muscles.
3. The patient needs treatment to the hamstring muscles on the same side as the treated Gastrocnemius muscle.
4. The patient has had prior lower limb orthopaedic surgery in the previous year.
5. The patient has severe athetoid movements of the lower limbs.
6. Previous injection with Botulinum toxin within 6 months prior to inclusion in the study.
7. The patient has a known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the test compounds or materials.
8. The patient has received any investigational drug therapy within 30 days prior to the study, or is scheduled to receive such a drug during the study period.
9. The patient has previously entered this study.
E.5 End points
E.5.1Primary end point(s)
Change in gait (assessed using the Physician's rating Index) 4 weeks after each treatment. A clinically relevant difference between the multiple injection (test) technique and the double injection (reference) technique, would be an additional 1 point improvement in the Physician's rating index for the test intervention over the reference intervention.
