Study Summary

This is a multicenter, randomized (1:1:1), double-blind, active and placebo controlled, parallel group study to evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of oral arbaclofen in MS patients with spasticity. Eligible subjects will be removed from anti-spasticity medications for at least one week and then begin study drug treatment with daily doses increasing up to the target dose which will then be maintained for at least 12 weeks. A down-titration will then occur over two weeks.

Primary Outcome

Change from baseline through end of treatment in the pre-dose, morning TNmAS of the most affected limb. The most affected limb is determined at baseline using the sum of scores for three major motor groups. High scores indicate more severe spasticity.
