baclofen and Dystonia

baclofen has been researched along with Dystonia in 115 studies

Dystonia: An attitude or posture due to the co-contraction of agonists and antagonist muscles in one region of the body. It most often affects the large axial muscles of the trunk and limb girdles. Conditions which feature persistent or recurrent episodes of dystonia as a primary manifestation of disease are referred to as DYSTONIC DISORDERS. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p77)

Trial Outcomes

Subjects Experiencing Maximal MAS Change From Baseline - Spasticity of Cerebral Origin

"The Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) is a 6-point scale (Standard MAS scale values: 0, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, or 4) used to evaluate spasticity based on grading muscle tone by moving joints. The MAS scores in this cohort are measured in biceps, triceps and forearm flexor muscles in upper extremities; and quadriceps, hamstrings and gastrocnemius muscles in lower extremities. The score ranges from 0 (no increase in muscle tone) to 4 (affected part(s) rigid in flexion or extension). Improvement in spasticity was a reduction in MAS score by 1 point across a joint tested. Maximal MAS change is the sum of MAS score reduction in all four limbs tested.~This outcome looks at subjects with spasticity of cerebral origin." (NCT02903823)
Timeframe: Baseline to 6 hours post-injection
