This study will assess the safety and efficacy of botulinum toxin Type A for the treatment of urinary incontinence overactive bladder in patients with a spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis.
Botulinum toxin Type A 300U has been discontinued from the study after regulatory approval of botulinum toxin Type A 200U. Patients remaining in the study who were allocated to receive botulinum toxin Type A 300U at treatment 2 (and had not yet received it) will receive botulinum toxin Type A 200U instead.

Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)
Spirometry was conducted according to American Thoracic Society standards. A spirometer was used to measure FVC, the maximum amount of air exhaled from the lungs after taking the deepest breath possible, at Baseline and Week 6. A positive change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1)
Spirometry was conducted according to American Thoracic Society standards. A spirometer was used to measure FEV1, the maximum amount of air exhaled in one second, at Baseline and Week 6. The highest value at each time-point was recorded. A positive change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
Change From Baseline in FEV1/FVC Ratio
The FEV1/FVC ratio was calculated by dividing the FEV1 value by the FVC value representing the portion (or ratio) of FVC exhaled in one second. A positive change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
Change From Baseline in the Number of Urinary Incontinence Episodes
The number of urinary incontinence episodes or leakage occurring over the previous 3 days was recorded in the patient bladder diary at Baseline and prior to Week 6. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement (less incontinence/leakage).
Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
Change From Baseline in the Maximum (Amplitude) Detrusor Pressure (MDP)
MDP was measured at the first involuntary detrusor contraction using urodynamic testing. A catheter was inserted into the bladder at Baseline and Week 6 and the pressure \[measured in centimeters water (cm H20)\] was determined as the bladder filled. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement (less Detrusor pressure).

Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
Change From Baseline in Maximum Cystometric Capacity (MCC)
MCC (the maximum amount of urine the bladder could hold) was measured using urodynamic testing. The amount of urine collected was subtracted from the total volume infused measured as milliliters (mL) of urine. A positive change from Baseline indicated improvement (fuller bladder/ less incontinence).
Time frame: Baseline, Week 6
