The purpose of this study is to determine whether Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA) injections for lower extremity spasticity showed a significant reduction of lower extremity spasticity after being injected with Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA) in patients with MS.
Primary Objective To evaluate the effect of Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxin A) on lower extremity spasticity (soleus, gastrocnemius, lateral gastrocnemius, medial gastrocnemius, flexor digitorum longus, flexor halluces longus, rectus femorus, vastus lateralis, lateral hamstrings, medial hamstrings, adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis, triceps surae, tibialis posterior or anterior tibialis).

| 12 item Multiple Sclerosis Walking scale (MSWS-12) Improvement | Mean change from baseline in the 12 Item Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale. The Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale is a self-assessment scale which measures the impact of MS on walking. It consists of 12 questions concerning the limitations to walking due to MS during the past 2 weeks. Each item can be answered with 5 options, with 1 meaning no limitation and 5 extreme limitation. A total score can be generated and transformed to a 0 to 100 scale by subtracting the minimum score possible (12) from the patient's score, dividing by the maximum score possible minus the minimum possible (60-12 or 48), and multiplying the result by 100. Walking improvement on the MSWS-12 is indicated by negative change scores |

| Baseline weeks 12, 16, and 20 |
| Improvement of (MSIS-29) Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale | Mean change from baseline in the (MISIS-29) Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale.The MSIS-29 is a 29 item measurement, which assesses the physical and psychological impact of MS on affected individuals; it is a self report questionnaire consisting of 20 and 9 items, respectively. Scores on the individual items are added and then transformed to a 0-100 scale, thereby generating two summary scores (for physical and psychological impact). Higher scores indicate worse health. | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement of Pain Scale | Mean change from baseline in the 0-10 Pain Scale. involves asking the patient to rate his or her pain from 0 to 10 (11 point scale) with the understanding that 0 is equal to no pain and 10 is equal to worst possible pain. 0 Pain free
| Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement of (MSSS-88) Multiple Sclerosis Spasticity Scale | Mean Change from baseline in the (MSSS-88) Multiple sclerosis Spasticity scale measures patient experience and perception of the impact of spasticity in MS with day-to-day symptoms andduring functional activities over the previous two weeks. It has 88 questions to quantify spasticity for a total score and in eight clinically relevant and stand-alone subscales: muscle stiffness, pain and discomfort,muscle spasms, activities of daily living,walking, body movements, emotional health, and social functioning.This scale has 88 items that are rated on a 4-point scale of 1 (Not at all bothered) through 4 (Extremely bothered). | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement of the Penn Spasm frequency scale | Mean change from baseline in the Penn Spasm frequency scale. The patient evaluates his/her "spasms", quantifying them according to 5 classifications (from 0 to 4).For ratings of 1 or greater, the severity of the spasms is also be evaluated, using a 3 level scale (mild, moderate or severe) | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement from baseline on the Timed 25 foot walk (T25FW) | Mean change from baseline on the Timed 25 foot walk (T25FW) The Timed 25-Foot Walk test is a mobility and function test based on a timed 25-foot walk. An individual will be asked to walk 25 feet on a clearly marked course as quickly and safely as they can. The time is calculated with a stopwatch, recorded, and the individual is asked to repeat the task immediately, walking back the same distance to the their initial starting point. | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement of Timed up and Go | Mean change from baseline on the Timed up and go. The purpose of the Timed Up and Go test is to identify individuals who are at risk of falling. It can screen for balance and gait problems. A person is observed as they stand from a sitting position without using their arms for support, then walk 10 feet, turn and return to a chair. Finally, they sit back in the chair without using their arms for support. | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Improvement on the (EDSS) score | Mean change from baseline on the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score. is a 20 point ordinal scale ranging from 0 (normal neurological exam) to 10 (dead from MS). From 0-4.0, EDSS is determined by the combination of scores on 7 functional systems. From 4.0-6.0 EDSS is determined by the ability to walk a distance. EDSS 6.0 is the need for unilateral walking assistance. EDSS 6.5 is the need for bilateral walking assistance. Nonambulatory patients are scored EDSS ≥7.0, with higher number reflecting increasing difficulty with mobility and ability to perform self-care. | Baseline weeks 12,16 and 20 |
| Walking improvement | Change from baseline in speed, cadence, general symmetry, propulsion, stride length using the G-Walk device is a wireless system of inertial sensors composed of a triaxial accelerometer, a magnetic sensor, and a triaxial gyroscope that, when positioned on L5 vertebrae of the spine, it allows for a functional objective gait analysis to be performed. The system extrapolates the data and calculates all the spatial-temporal gait parameters required to perform an assessment or to define a training strategy | Baseline weeks 12,16 and week 20 |
