§Procedure-related adverse reactions. **Elevated PVR not requiring catheterisation. †Only in multiple sclerosis. aAdverse reactions occurring in the Phase 2 and pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials. bAdverse reactions occurring in the post-approval study of BOTOX® 100U in MS patients not catheterising at baseline. Please note, BOTOX® 100U is not licensed for NDO.
Clean intermittent catheterisation (CIC) rates in NDO5

Study context: Two double-blind, placebo controlled, randomised phase 3 clinical studies, in 691 patients with urinary incontinence due to NDO. To compare the change in baseline for BOTOX® versus placebo. The primary endpoint was the mean change at week 6 in weekly frequency of urinary incontinence.5
CIC rates are higher in NDO than OAB5, however QoL was still improved in de novo catheterisers8
BOTOX® in NDO: Urinary retention 17% BOTOX® (n=227) vs 3% placebo (n=241)5
MS – 29% BOTOX® vs 4% placebo5; SCI – 5% BOTOX® vs 1% placebo5
QoL scores improved with BOTOX® regardless of whether patients needed to CIC or not8
Adapted from Allergan Ltd. Data on File 0408
Study context: The pooled results of two multicenter, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, parallel group phase 3 clinical studies, in 142 patients with urinary incontinence due to NDO, to compare the safety and efficacy of BOTOX® versus placebo. The primary endpoint for both studies was the number of weekly episodes of urinary incontinence.8
Mean baseline scores: BOTOX® 200U non-CIC 31.33, BOTOX® 200U CIC 34.85.
CIC: clean intermittent catheterisation; I-QoL: incontinence quality of life; MS: multiple sclerosis; NDO: neurogenic detrusor overactivity; OAB: overactive bladder; QoL: quality of life; SCI: spinal cord injury; UI: urinary incontinence.
