简要总结
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an acquired inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that is regarded as the foremost cause of non-traumatic neurologic disability in adults in North America. Spasticity is a common complication in MS and occurs in up to 84% of patients. The main sign of spasticity is resistance to passive limb movement characterized by increased resistance to stretching, clonus, and exaggerated deep reflexes. Osmotica Pharmaceutical is currently developing arbaclofen extended-release tablets (AERT) for the treatment of spasticity in patients with MS.
详细描述
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral AERT in MS patients with spasticity. Two doses of AERT, 40 mg and 80 mg, will be compared with placebo. The treatment groups will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio. Eligible patients will undergo a washout period for withdrawal of all medications used for anti-spasticity and/or muscle relaxation prior to randomization. A baseline clinical evaluation will be performed (Visit 2) to confirm eligibility for study randomization, and subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatment arms. Subjects will remain on maintenance treatment for approximately 3 months.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Total Numeric-transformed Modified Ashworth Scale Score of the Most Affected Limb (TNmAS-MAL)
时间窗: 84 days
Total Numeric-Transformed Modified Ashworth Scale (TNmAS) is a 6-point scale to measure abnormality in tone or the resistance to passive movements. Higher score is worse outcome. For each joint, the minimum score is 0; maximum score is 5. The values for each of the 3 main joints are summed for the limb score. The limb with the highest score is the most affected limb (MAL). The highest possible score for a limb is 15. Limb range: 0 to 15. To arrive at total limbs (TL) score the values for all 4 limbs are summed; maximum total limb score is 60. TL range: 0 to 60.
Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC)
时间窗: 84 days
The Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC) was developed to provide a brief, stand-alone assessment of the clinician's view of the subject's global functioning prior to and after initiating a study medication. The scale ranges from -3 to +3 judging whether the change is significantly worse (-3) to significantly improved (+3). Higher score is better outcome. The CGIC scale will be used to measure the overall change in the subject's condition since starting the study. There is no baseline value because the score is a measure of how the patient changed from baseline (treatment initiation).
