Botulinum toxin for involuntary movement and muscle disorders
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests botulinum toxin (a medication that relaxes muscles) to treat various involuntary movements like tremors, muscle spasms, or uncontrolled facial movements. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be at least 2 years old
- You have a condition involving involuntary movements or muscle spasms that your doctor thinks botulinum toxin might help
- You are not pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding
- You are not currently taking aminoglycoside antibiotics (a specific type of antibiotic)

This study tests if adding a daily pill (valbenazine) to regular botox injections can better reduce neck muscle spasms. It helps people whose botox works but may not be enough.
This trial tests whether botulinum toxin type A injections can reduce shaking (tremor) in the hand or arm that does not improve with standard Parkinson's medications. It aims to see if this treatment can provide relief for people with difficult-to-control tremor.
This trial tests an investigational botulinum toxin injection (AGN-151607-DP) to reduce shaking in the hands and arms caused by essential tremor. It is for adults who have been diagnosed with this condition and who do not have certain nerve or muscle disorders.
This study tests whether injections of botulinum toxin (Dysport) can help people whose hand tremor only happens when they try to do specific tasks, like pouring a drink or eating. If you qualify, you would receive injections and be monitored to see if your tremor improves.
This trial tests incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin) injections to reduce focal hand dystonia—unwanted muscle tightening in the hand. You may be able to join whether you’ve had this condition before or have tried similar injections in the past, as long as certain safety rules are met.
This study tests a new botulinum toxin injection (YY001) for adults whose arm muscles are tight or stiff after a stroke. It looks at whether repeated treatments help with daily activities like washing and dressing.
