About

24-Week Prospective, Double-Blinded, Randomized, Cross-over design in Multicenter Study of 50 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) and 100 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) injection for Cervical Dystonia in patient diagnosed with cervical dystonia according to clinical diagnosis. It was designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, quality of life and the comparesion the improvement after treatment by of 50 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) and 100 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) injection.

Full description

Three documented studies showed the clinical use of botulinum toxin for migraine prophylaxis.(26) Neubotulinum Toxin Type A, (Neu-BoNT/A), (Neuronox® ) (Medytox Inc, Ochang-eup, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, Republic of Korea), also known as Meditoxin in Korea, is a newly manufactured BoNT-A (Neu-BoNT/A) that was developed to provide features close to onabotulinum toxin A (5). Neuronox was tested in a murine model, and its effect on muscle force generation was equivalent to Botox® (ona-BoNT/A) (6). A previous multicenter randomized controlled trial showed that Neuronox and Botox® have equivalent efficacy and safety for the treatment of spastic equinus in children with cerebral palsy (6). However, 50 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) and 100 unit of Neubotulinum Toxin Type A (Neuronox) has not yet been investigated in cervical dystonia. This study is the extension of the NCT03805152
