Clinical Trial Summary

Ventral hernias form when there is a loss of integrity of the abdominal wall muscles. Abdominal hernias can expand and can cause severe pain as the abdominal wall weakens. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a range of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) doses to achieve primary fascial closure (PFC) without use of component separation technique (CST) in ventral hernia surgical repair. BOTOX is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of ventral hernias. In this dose escalation study, participants will be placed in 1 of 3 cohorts. Cohort 1 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 2 BOTOX doses, after which time Cohort 2 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 3 BOTOX doses. Participants in Cohort 3 will be randomized to receive placebo or 1 of 3 BOTOX doses. Adult participants undergoing open abdominal ventral hernia repair will be enrolled. Around 200 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20 sites in the United States. Participants will receive a single intramuscular injection of BOTOX Dose A, BOTOX Dose B, BOTOX Dose C, or placebo. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care (due to study procedures). Participants will be followed for approximately 3 months after surgery and will receive a follow-up phone call 30 days (+/-) their last study visit. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
