Popis: Background To further explore clinical trial results indicating increasing doses of botulinum toxin A prolong duration of effect, a 2-stage, phase 2, randomized, double-blind study investigated the duration of effect and safety of incobotulinumtoxinA (INCO; Xeominr, Bocouturer) doses higher than the US Food and Drug Administration-approved 20 units (U) for glabellar frown lines (GFL). The stage 1 primary efficacy and safety results were reported previously. Here, we report the results of the final analysis (stage 1 and 2), including primary and secondary efficacy and safety endpoints. Methods A total of 241 subjects with moderate-to-severe GFL were randomized to receive a single treatment with 20 (N=61), 50 (N=60), 75 (N=61), or 100U (N=59) INCO. The primary efficacy endpoint was duration of g 1-point improvement from baseline assessed by investigator at maximum frown on the Facial Wrinkle Scale. Results The median duration of effect was 175 days for the 20U group (95% CI 142, 185), 185 days for the 50U group (95% CI 182, 205), 210 days for the 75U group (95% CI 182, 217), and 215 days for the 100U group (95% CI 183, 237). The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was low across all doses and there were no treatment-related serious adverse events. Conclusions These results demonstrate that all INCO doses were well tolerated, consistent with the known safety profile of 20U, and increasing dose prolongs the duration of effect for GFL.
