Arms & Interventions
botulinum toxin Type A
Double-Blind Study Phase (12 weeks): On Day 1, botulinum toxin Type A 300 U will be given by intramuscular injections into specified muscles of the lower limb, and an optional dose of 100 U may be injected into additional lower limb muscles. Open Label Study Phase: Up to 3 treatments with botulinum toxin Type A up to 400 U will be given by intramuscular injections to the lower limb approximately every 12 weeks over a 42 week period.
Intervention: botulinum toxin Type A
Normal Saline (Placebo) Followed by botulinum toxin Type A
Double-Blind Study Phase (12 weeks): On Day 1, normal saline (placebo) will be given by intramuscular injections into specified muscles of the lower limb, and optional injections may be administered into additional lower limb muscles. Open Label Study Phase: Up to 3 treatments with botulinum toxin Type A up to 400 U will be given by intramuscular injections to the lower limb approximately every 12 weeks over a 42 week period.
Intervention: botulinum toxin Type A

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change From Baseline in Modified Ashworth Scale-Bohannon (MAS-B) Score of Ankle Plantar Flexors Using a 6-Point Scale
Time Frame: Baseline, 6 Weeks
The MAS-B is a 6-point scale used to evaluate spasticity based on grading the resistance encountered in the ankle flexors by passively moving the ankle plantar flexor muscles through their range of motion. The score ranges from 0 (no increase in muscle tone) to 4 (affected part(s) rigid in flexion or extension). Scores are converted to a 0 to 5 grade. The average of the weeks 4 and 6 MAS-B ankle change from baseline is the primary end point. A negative number change from baseline indicates an improvement and a positive number change from baseline indicates a worsening.
Secondary Outcomes
- Clinical Global Impression (CGI) of Overall Change by Physician Using a 9-Point Scale(Baseline, 6 weeks)
- Goal Attainment Scores on the 6-Point Physician-Assessed Goal Attainment Scale (GAS)(Week 8)
- Change From Baseline in Average Pain Score While Walking on the 11-Point Pain Scale(Baseline, Week 6)
- Change From Baseline in Modified Ashworth Scale-Bohannon (MAS-B) Score of Optional Muscles Using a 6-Point Scale(Baseline, Week 6)
