Ipsen announces new clinical data to be presented at ISPRM 2018 demonstrating commitment to neurotoxin research

Clinical research reaffirms Ipsen’s support for patients and the neuroscience community.

Paris (France), 04 July 2018 – Ipsen (Euronext: IPN; ADR: IPSEY) today announced that its neurotoxin portfolio will be the subject of 13 abstracts at the 12th International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine World Congress. The meeting will be held in Paris, July 8-12, 2018.

The 13 abstracts will present neuroscience data that advances knowledge in physical and rehabilitation medicine including clinical outcomes linked to Ipsen’s portfolio in adult spasticity (upper and lower limbs),  pediatric spasticity, and in cervical dystonia. In addition, an international survey investigating the burden of spasticity on patients and their caregivers will be presented, as well as real-world data that supports better understanding of current clinical practices.

Alexandre Lebeaut, MD, Executive Vice-President, R&D, Chief Scientific Officer, Ipsen said: “Ipsen will have its strongest ever neuroscience presence at ISPRM 2018, demonstrating our strong focus on advancing the boundaries of neurotoxin research and our long-term commitment to patients and the neuroscience community, notably through medical education programs and symposia. We will also disclose new data from the first-ever recombinant botulinum neurotoxin to be administered to humans, an area where we have the ambition to advance and unlock the potential of this innovative technology platform.”
Prof. Lynne Turner-Stokes, [Cicely Saunders Institute, King’s College London, UK] added: “The results of the large observational ULIS-III study, which aims to assess real-life clinical practice will be the subject of an oral presentation. This study demonstrated that pain reduction is an important and achievable primary treatment goal in some patients suffering with spasticity.”
