- Change From Baseline in the Total Score of the Tsui Rating Scale (Patient in Sitting Position) at the First On-treatment Visit (Week 4 or Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 or Week 12 (up to 12 weeks) ]
The Tsui rating scale measures severity and duration of head deviation, shoulder elevation and head tremor. This instrument is based on 4 subscores:
- Subscore A: amplitude of rotation, deflection (tilt) and ante- / retrocollis (range: 0-9 points)
- Subscore B: duration of movement (values 1 or 2)
- Subscore C: severity and duration of shoulder elevation (range: 0-3 points)
- Subscore D: severity and duration of tremor (range: 0-4 points).
The total score was calculated as follows: total score = subscores (A x B) + C + D. The total score ranges between 0 and 25 points. A high total score represents severe CD.
The mean change in the total score of the Tsui rating scale (patient in the sitting position) between baseline (Week 0 visit) and the first on-treatment visit (Week 4 or Week 12 visit) is presented.
- Change in the Total Score of the Tsui Rating Scale (Patient in Sitting Position) Between Visit 1 (Week 0) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
The Tsui rating scale measures severity and duration of head deviation, shoulder elevation and head tremor. This instrument is based on 4 subscores:
- Subscore A: amplitude of rotation, deflection (tilt) and ante- / retrocollis (range: 0-9 points)
- Subscore B: duration of movement (values 1 or 2)
- Subscore C: severity and duration of shoulder elevation (range: 0-3 points)
- Subscore D: severity and duration of tremor (range: 0-4 points).
The total score was calculated as follows: total score = subscores (A x B) + C + D. The total score ranges between 0 and 25 points. A high total score represents severe CD.
The mean change in the total score of the Tsui rating scale (patient in the sitting position) between baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 12 visit is presented.
- Change in the Total Score of the Tsui Rating Scale (Patient Walking) Between Baseline (Week 0) and Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 12 ]
The Tsui rating scale measures severity and duration of head deviation, shoulder elevation and head tremor. This instrument is based on 4 subscores:
- Subscore A: amplitude of rotation, deflection (tilt) and ante- / retrocollis (range: 0-9 points)
- Subscore B: duration of movement (values 1 or 2)
- Subscore C: severity and duration of shoulder elevation (range: 0-3 points)
- Subscore D: severity and duration of tremor (range: 0-4 points).
The total score was calculated as follows: total score = subscores (A x B) + C + D.
The total score ranges between 0 and 25 points. A high total score represents severe CD.
The mean changes in the total score of the Tsui rating scale (patient walking) between baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 4 and Week 12 visits are presented.
- Change in the 4 Subscores of the Tsui Rating Scale (Patient in the Sitting Position) Between Visit 1 (Week 0) and Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 12 ]
The Tsui rating scale measures severity and duration of head deviation, shoulder elevation and head tremor. This instrument is based on 4 subscores:
- Subscore A: amplitude of rotation, deflection (tilt) and ante- / retrocollis (range: 0-9 points)
- Subscore B: duration of movement (values 1 or 2)
- Subscore C: severity and duration of shoulder elevation (range: 0-3 points)
- Subscore D: severity and duration of tremor (range: 0-4 points).
A higher score for each subscale represents severe CD symptoms. The total score was calculated as follows: total score = subscores (A x B) + C + D. The total score ranges between 0 and 25 points. A high total score represents severe CD.
The mean changes in the subscores A to D of the Tsui rating scale (patient in the sitting position) between baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 4 and Week 12 visits are presented.
- Change in the Craniocervical Dystonia Questionnaire (CDQ-24) Total Score and Subscores Between Visit 1 (Week 0) and Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 12 ]
The CDQ-24 is a disease-specific quality of life (QoL) instrument and was assessed at Visits 1 to 3. It consists of 24 items investigating problems in daily living skills related to CD.
This instrument is based on 5 subscales: Stigma, Emotional well-being, Pain, Activities of daily living (ADL), Social/family life to which a number of the 24 items are assigned. There are five possible answers to each item representing increasing severity of impairment (scores 0 to 4). The total scores ranged from 0 to 96 (best to worst QoL). In order to obtain scores of the individual subscales, the total score of each subscale (sum of the individual item scores) was transformed linearly to a 0 to 100 scale (best to worst QoL).
The mean changes in the CDQ-24 total score between baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 4 and Week 12 visits are presented.
- Changes in the Items of the Patient Diary Based on Day-to-day Function and Activities, Pain and Duration of Pain Between Visit 1 (Week 0) and Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 12 ]
The weekly recorded patient diary consists of the three items: Day-to-Day Capacities and Activities, Pain and Duration of Pain. Each item was rated by the patient on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 = no problems at all to 10 = most severe problems (the actual wording is adapted to each item in question).
The mean changes between the baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 4 and Week 12 visits are presented.
- Categorical Changes in the Items of the Patient Diary Based on Day-to-day Function and Activities, Pain and Duration of Pain Between Visit 1 (Week 0) and Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 4 and Week 12 ]
The weekly recorded patient diary consists of the three items: Day-to-Day Capacities and Activities, Pain and Duration of Pain. Each item was rated by the patient on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 = no problems at all to 10 = most severe problems (the actual wording is adapted to each item in question).
The following categorical changes between the baseline (Week 0 visit) and the Week 4 and Week 12 visits are presented: Improvement, No change and Deterioration.
- Number of Patients Without Pain and/or With a Reduction in Pain Based on a Global Assessment of Pain by the Investigator and by the Patient at Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Week 4 visit and Week 12 visit ]
Global pain was assessed at Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12); investigators and patients assessed change in global pain according to the following response categories:
- = no pain (anymore)
- = less pain
- = no change
- = more pain
The numbers of patients falling under each of these categories as assessed by the investigator and patient at Weeks 4 and 12 are presented.
- Global Assessment of Efficacy by the Investigator and by the Patient at Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) [ Time Frame: Week 4 and Week 12 ]
At Visit 2 (Week 4) and Visit 3 (Week 12) investigators and patients assessed global efficacy of injection of 500 U Dysport® according to the following response categories:
- = very good
- = good
- = moderate
- = insufficient
The numbers of patients falling under each of these categories as assessed by the investigator and patient at Weeks 4 and 12 are presented.
