Active clinical trials for "Torticollis"

To determine the efficacy and safety of Botulax® in treatment of cervical dystonia

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well a new drug called Dysport NG works and how safe it is, when it is used for the treatment of cervical dystonia. Dysport NG will be compared to an approved drug called Dysport.

The aim is to demonstrate equivalent efficacy and safety in the treatment of the two most frequent forms of cervical dystonia (predominantly rotational torticollis and predominantly laterocollis) with the standard initial dose of 500 units Dysport®. The patients will be assigned to one of the two basic types of cervical dystonia, either predominantly rotational torticollis or predominantly laterocollis on the basis of clinical examination. This will determine which therapy is to be administered, using the clearly defined, structured injection protocols.

This is an open-label, dose-escalation study to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of daxibotulinumtoxinA in subjects with isolated cervical dystonia (CD).

This study will compare Xeomin®, a botulinum toxin medication, in shorter treatment intervals (Short Flex dosing) to the standard interval dosing (Long Flex dosing) to determine if the response to treatment is comparable in both how it works and any side effects. Xeomin® is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of cervical dystonia (CD). The use of Xeomin® is investigational in regards to shorter treatment intervals. An investigational use is one that is not approved by the FDA.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate swallowing efficiency in patients with cervical dystonia following treatment with botulinum toxin Type A.

The purpose of this study is to compare two types of botulinum toxin type A to treat the involuntary muscle contractions in the neck

At baseline patients received incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) or placebo. Thereafter, all patients who entered the extension period were treated with up to five injection sessions of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) during the extension period.

This study aims to compare Botox injections without Physical Therapy sessions to Botox injections combined with Physical Therapy sessions for treatment of Cervical Dystonia. It is expected that Botox combined with Physical Therapy will improve Cervical Dystonia symptoms and quality of life more than Botox alone. It is also expected that Botox combined with Physical Therapy will enhance neuroplasticity, or the ability of the brain to make new connections, more than Botox alone at 4-5 weeks, and remain improved at 12 weeks, after Botox injection.

Five hundred patients with a confirmed clinical diagnosis of Cervical Dystonia (CD)are planned for enrollment into this open label study. These patients will be Type B toxin naive patients with CD. During this study patients will receive repeat injections of MYOBLOC when deemed appropriate by the Investigator. However, it will be recommended that injections occur not more frequently than every 12 weeks. Total duration of exposure to MYOBLOC will be targeted for at least two years, with potential exposure for up to 7 years in patients with earliest enrollment
