NCT ID NCT07292025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tested a new drug called JTM201 against Botox in 30 adults who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and still have muscle stiffness in their arm. The goal was to see if JTM201 is safe and can reduce spasticity, making daily tasks like dressing and hygiene easier. The study is already completed, and results will show how it compares to the standard treatment.

- If it works, JTM201 could offer a new option to ease muscle stiffness in the arm after a stroke, improving daily function.
