A Study With IPX056 in Subjects With Spasticity Associated With Multiple Sclerosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
To explore the safety and efficacy of IPX056 compared with baclofen tablets for alleviation of symptoms of spasticity associated with multiple sclerosis (MS).
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
IPX056 was compared with commercially available tablets as it was designed to provide a prolonged duration of absorption to reduce dose frequency and/or to provide prolonged duration of antispasticity effect.
