Study to Assess the Safety of 3 mg/mL Gablofen® (Baclofen Injection) Delivered by Intrathecal Administration Using the Synchromed® II Programmable Infusion System
Safety study to assess the 3 mg/mL baclofen injection (intrathecal) using a programmable
pump

This is a prospective 36-month Phase IIIb/IV clinical safety trial that will be conducted at
clinical trial sites that are experienced with the use of intrathecal baclofen. All patients
will be entered after signing an IRB approved informed consent. Patients will be followed
for the duration of their treatment with Gablofen® (baclofen injection) 3 mg/mL using the
SynchroMed® II Programmable Pump or until the study is terminated. Patients will be
evaluated for clinical complications associated with the use of intrathecal baclofen that
are considered signs and symptoms of an inflammatory granuloma, specifically new radicular
pain at the level of the catheter tip, and/or spinal cord compression. An MRI scan with and
without infusion will be performed (with consent of the patient) to evaluate the potential
presence of an inflammatory granuloma if clinical signs exist. Events that may be related to
an inflammatory granuloma will be classified as a definite granuloma, possible granuloma,
other catheter related problem (confirmed not caused by a granuloma), or other clinical
sequelae caused by the underlying disease or other infusion system related event.
