Abstract Details

Onset of Action for RimabotulinumtoxinB in the Treatment of Adult Sialorrhea
Movement Disorders
P12 - Poster Session 12 (12:00 PM-1:00 PM)
3-006
To assess the onset of action for rimabotulinumtoxinB injections in the salivary glands for the treatment of sialorrhea.
Sialorrhea (drooling) causes significant morbidity including impaired oral hygiene, perioral irritation, embarrassment, swallowing impairment, and increased risk of aspiration. Local injections of botulinum toxin-B (BoNT-B) into the parotid and submandibular glands reduce saliva production. The onset of response is likely to be important in terms of patient and physician satisfaction with treatment. 
This was a double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted over 13 ±2 weeks. Adult patients with Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, medication-induced, stroke and other disorders were randomized (1:1:1) to receive rimabotulinumtoxinB 2500U vs 3500U vs placebo. Onset of RimabotulinumtoxinB efficacy was defined as when the difference between the active dose vs placebo first became statistically significant (p <0.05) on the unstimulated salivary flow rate (USFR, co-primary outcome). Both clinicians and patients rated their global impressions of change (CGI-C, co-primary and PGI-C). 
USFR reductions were observed with both rimabotulinumtoxinB doses compared with placebo, beginning at Week 1 and continuing through Week 8 (p <0.0001). At Week 1, the treatment difference versus placebo was -0.13g/min [95% CI, -0.23, -0.04] in the 2500U group and -0.21g/min [-0.31, -0.11] in the 3500U group. By week 4, the treatment difference of -0.30 g/min [95% CI, -0.39, -0.21] was identical in both active arms. Compared to placebo, mean adjusted CGI-C scores also improved with rimabotulinumtoxinB beginning at Week 1 (2500U, p=0.0122; 3500U, p=0.0143) and continuing through Week 8 (p <0.0001 for both doses). For the 3500U dose, significance on PGI-C versus placebo was noted as early as Week 1.
RimabotulinumtoxinB provides a rapid onset of efficacy for patients suffering with troublesome sialorrhea related to many neurological disorders.
