Exclusion Criteria: - Any concomitant disease or disorder that has spasticity-like symptoms or that may influence the subject's level of spasticity. - Subject's medical history suggests that relapse/remission is likely to occur during the study (over the next 19 weeks) which, in the opinion of the investigator, is expected to influence the subject's spasticity. - Currently receiving a prohibited medication and unwilling to stop for the stated period prior to the screening visit and for the duration of the study. - Any known or suspected history of: schizophrenia or other psychotic illness;diagnosed dependence disorder;poorly controlled epilepsy or recurrent seizures;hypersensitivity to cannabinoids. - Significant cardiac, renal or hepatic disease. - Female subjects of child bearing potential and male subjects whose partner is of child bearing potential, unless willing to ensure that they or their partner use effective contraception during the study and for three months thereafter. - Female subject who is pregnant, lactating or planning pregnancy during the course of the study or for three months thereafter. - Subjects who have received an IMP within the 12 weeks before Visit 1. - Any other significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the subject at risk because of participation in the study, or may influence the result of the study, or the subject's ability to participate in the study. - Following a physical examination, the subject has any abnormalities that, in the opinion of the investigator, would prevent them from safely participating in the study. - Unwilling to abstain from donation of blood during the study. - Travel outside the country of residence planned during the study. - Subjects previously randomised into this study. |

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | The Change in Mean Spasticity Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Score From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B). | Subjects were asked "On a scale of '0 to 10' please indicate the average level of your spasticity over the last 24 hours" with the anchors: 0 = 'no spasticity' and 10 = 'worst possible spasticity'. They were asked to relate 'no spasticity' to the time prior to the onset of their spasticity. | Baseline (last 7 days of Week 4) - End of treatment (last 7 days of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Number of Subjects Showing an Improvement of at Least 30% or 50% in Their Mean NRS Spasticity Score (Phase B) From Baseline. | A subject was classified as a responder in the evaluable period provided they did not withdraw due to lack of efficacy and achieved at least a 30% or 50% reduction (i.e. improvement) in the mean NRS spasticity score from baseline (Day 1) to the end of treatment(last 7 days of Week 17 Phase B). All other subjects and subjects without evaluable data were considered non-responders. | Baseline (Day 1) - End of treatment (last 7 days of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Change in Spasm Frequency (Number of Spasms Per Day) From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B). | The subjects' baseline spasm frequency was the mean of the last seven days scores (Week 4) of Phase A treatment. The variable for analysis was the change in mean spasm frequency from baseline to the end of treatment (last 7 days of Week 17 Phase B). | Baseline (last 7 days of Week 4) - End of treatment (last 7 days of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Change in Sleep Disruption (Daily 11-point NRS) From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B). | The sleep disruption NRS score was recorded by subjects via a daily call to the interactive voice response system at bedtime. Subjects were asked "On a scale of '0 to 10' please indicate how you your spasticity disrupted your sleep last night" with the anchors: 0 = 'did not disrupt sleep' and 10 = 'completely disrupted (unable to sleep at all)'. | Baseline (last 7 days of Week 4) - End of treatment (last 7 days of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Change in Spasticity as Measured Using the Modified Ashworth Scale From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B). | All 20 muscle groups were assessed for spasticity (using a 1-5 scale): 1= no increase in muscle tone to 5= passive movement is difficult and affected part is rigid in flexion or extension. The score for all 20 muscle groups were added to give a total score out of 100; minimum score was 20. A decrease in score indicates an improvement in condition. | Baseline (End of Week 4) - End of treatment (End of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Change in Motricity Index Score From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B)for Affected Limbs. | Arm - 3 movements were pinch grip, elbow flexion and shoulder abduction. Leg - 3 movements were ankle dorsiflexion, knee extension and hip flexion. The total arm and leg score was the addition of the score for the 3 arm movements and 3 leg movements, respectively. One point was then added to each limb score to give a maximum score of 100; minimum was 1 point. Where both arms (or both legs) were assessed, the average of the two limbs scores was used as the assessment score; otherwise the affected limb total score was used. An increase in score indicates an improvement in condition. | Baseline (End of Week 4) - End of treatment (End of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Change in Timed 10-metre Walk From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B). | Only those subjects for whom it was appropriate (i.e. ambulatory subjects) were timed how long it took to walk 10 metres. Walk time was only assessed for subjects who successfully completed the Timed 10 Metre Walk. A negative difference from baseline indicates an improvement walk time. | Baseline (End of Week 4) - End of treatment (End of Week 17) | |

Secondary | Change EuroQoL Quality of Life Questionnaire (EQ-5D)From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B) | The EQ-5D questionnaire provided two outcomes:
A weighted health state index visual analogue scale (VAS) A self-rated health status VAS EQ-5D Health Status VAS Scale: 0 = worst health state imaginable to 100 = best health state imaginable. An increase in score indicates an improvement in condition. The weighted health state index used the same VAS as above but was calculated for each assessment without imputation to account for missing values i.e., if one or more individual items was missing then the whole index was missing. |
[Baseline (End of Week 4) - End of treatment (End of Week 17) | |
Secondary | Mood Assessment: Change in Beck Depression Inventory - II (BDI-II)From Baseline to End of Treatment (Phase B) | This was a 21-question multiple choice self-report inventory. Subjects' responses to the 21 questions were assigned a score ranging from zero to three, indicating the severity of the symptom. The sum of all BDI-II question scores indicated the severity of depression; score range 0-63. An decrease in score indicates an improvement in condition. | Baseline (End of week 4) - end of treatment (end of week 17) |
