Inclusion Criteria: * Written informed consent obtained from the subject * History of ED for at least 6 months prior to screening, defined as "the inability to achieve and maintain an erection of the penis sufficient to complete satisfactory sexual intercourse" (NIH), the diagnosis of ED has to be confirmed by a physician * Understanding of study procedures and willingness to abide by all procedures during the course of the study * Male subject aged ≥18 to ≤ 80 years at visit 1 * Have a monogamous relationship with a female sexual partner (vaginal penetration required for several of the primary efficacy variables) for at least 6 months prior to screening * Highly motivated to obtain treatment for ED * History of previous use of at least 1 marketed PDE5 inhibitor and insufficient therapeutic efficacy despite use of the highest approved dose Exclusion Criteria: * Hypersensitivity to the active substance (Clostridium Botulinum neurotoxin type A) or to any of the excipients (Human albumin, sucrose) * BW \<50 kg * Diagnosis of spinal cord injury * ED caused by other primary sexual disorders including premature ejaculation or ED caused by untreated endocrine disease (e.g., hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, or hypogonadism) * History of penile implant. * The presence of clinically significant penile deformity in the opinion of the investigator. * Concomitant diagnosis of Peyronie's disease * Patients with chronic stable angina treated with long-acting nitrates, or patients with chronic stable angina who have required short-acting nitrates in the last 90 days, or angina occurring during sexual intercourse in the last 6 months. * Patients having met the criteria for unstable angina within 6 months prior to Visit 1, history of myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass graft surgery within 90 days prior to Visit 1, or percutaneous coronary intervention (e.g., angioplasty or stent placement) within 90 days prior to Visit 1. * Any supraventricular arrhythmia with an uncontrolled ventricular response (mean heart rate \>100 bpm) at rest despite medical or device therapy, or any history of spontaneous or induced sustained ventricular tachycardia (heart rate \>100 bpm for 30 sec) despite medical or device therapy, or the presence of an automatic internal cardioverter-defibrillator. * A history of sudden cardiac death (arrest) despite medical or device therapy. * Any evidence of congestive heart failure within 6 months prior to Visit 1. * A significant conduction defect within 90 days prior to Visit 1. * Systolic blood pressure \>170 or \<90 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure \>100 or \<50 mm Hg at screening (if stress is suspected, retest under basal conditions), or patients with malignant hypertension. * \<12 weeks since most recent injection of BTX-A/B into any body region for any indication * Neurological disorder associated with neuro muscular dysfunction of any kind in medical history. * Planned concomitant treatment with BTX -A/B of any body region during the study. * Known hypersensitivity to human serum albumin, sucrose, or the active substance BTX-A. * Generalized disorders of muscles activity (e.g. myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton-Syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) or any other significant peripheral neuromuscular dysfunction which might interfere with the study. * Any condition that would interfere with the patient's ability to provide informed consent or comply with study instructions, would place patient at increased risk, or might confound the interpretation of the study results. * Current treatment with nitrates (as outlined in previous Exclusion Criterion, cancer chemotherapy, or anti-androgens. * History of drug, alcohol, or substance abuse within the past 6 months. * Investigators, site personnel directly affiliated with this study, and their immediate families. Immediate family is defined as a spouse, parent, child or sibling, whether biological or legally adopted. * Treatment within the last 30 days with a drug or device that has not received regulatory approval at the time of study entry. * Ongoing severe or uncontrolled systemic disease, current malignancy, hemophilia, or HIV infection in medical history. * Severe or uncontrolled respiratory disease in medical history. * Evidence or suspicion that the subject is not willing or unable (e.g. Due to severe cognitive communication impairment) to understand the information that is given to him as part of the informed consent, in particular regarding the risks and discomfort which he would agree to be exposed to. * Any reason which in the investigator's opinion is likely to compromise the subject's ability to participate in the study. * Subject who is imprisoned or is lawfully kept in an institution * Participation in a clinical study within 12 weeks prior to screening or planned participation during this study. * Previous participation in this clinical study.
