NCT03283371
The primary efficacy objective of the study is to determine if adjunctive therapy of natalizumab 300 mg intravenous (IV) every 4 weeks reduces the frequency of seizures in adult participants with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. The secondary efficacy objective is to assess the effects of natalizumab versus placebo in drug-resistant focal epilepsy on additional measures of seizure frequency.
NCT01339559
This is a Phase 3, open label, long term follow-up (LTFU), multicenter, noncomparative, and single arm study of brivaracetam (BRV).
NCT00334958
To evaluate the effect of rufinamide on total partial seizure frequency in adolescent and adult participants (12 to 80 years, inclusive) with refractory partial onset seizures maintained on a maximum of 3 stable antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
NCT03650452
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect on the frequency of all seizures (convulsive and drop) in participants treated with TAK-935 compared to placebo.
NCT03478982
This is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, parallel group, dose-ranging study to investigate the efficacy and clinical usability of STAP-001 in adult (18 years of age and older) subjects with epilepsy with a predictable seizure pattern. These subjects have an established diagnosis of focal or generalized epilepsy with a documented history of predictable seizure episodes. This is an in-patient study. The subjects will be admitted to a Clinical Research Unit (CRU) or Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) for study participation. The duration of the stay in the in-patient unit will be 2-8 days. One seizure event per subject will be treated with study medication. The duration and timing of the seizure event and occurrence of subsequent seizures will be assessed by the Staff Caregiver(s)1 through clinical observation and confirmed with video electroencephalogram (EEG).
NCT02993861
The study is a prospective, multi-center, open-label clinical trial. Study's purpose is to characterize the pharmacokinetics and safety of four oral anti-epileptics drugs (levetiracetam, valproic acid \[divalproex sodium ER or immediate release formulation if inadequate enrollment}, topiramate, and oxcarbazepine) in a non-randomized sample of obese children and adolescents. The study's duration will be up to eleven days (up to seven days of screening and four days of pharmacokinetic sampling). Eligible participants ages 2 to 18 years will be identified through outpatient clinic schedules and inpatient admissions at each clinic site. Participants receiving at least one of the study drugs per local standard of care will have pharmacokinetic concentrations in plasma drawn according to the specific dosing schedule for each drug. Other study measures include demographics, BMI, waist/hip ratio, medical history, concomitant medication history, documentation of study drug oral intake, adverse effects, and physical examination. The sample size will include 24 participants for each anti-epileptic drug (total 96).
NCT01390220
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of USL261 for the outpatient treatment of seizure clusters.
NCT03534258
This study is designed as a prospective, non-randomized, observational, multicenter clinical trial. The primary aim of this study is to observe if the use of the rapid responds electroencephalography (EEG) system impacts physician decision making. Secondary aims include exploring the safety and performance information of the Ceribell EEG system compared to conventional EEG system. The study will recruit physicians (Faculty physicians and Trainees) at up to five institutions and examine the impact of rapid response EEG when providing care to patients in whom EEG recording has been ordered for clinical reasons.
NCT00175825
This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of brivaracetam (at doses of 5, 20 and 50 mg/day in twice a day administration) as add-on therapy in subjects with focal epilepsy.
NCT01281293
Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) Therapy has been approved marked for the treatment of epilepsy since 1994. This post-market study is designed to follow the clinical course and outcomes for patients with refractory seizures treated with adjunctive VNS Therapy. Seizure frequency, seizure severity, side effects burden, depressive symptoms, global impressions, and health care utilization will be evaluated. The results of this study will provide data to guide physicians and their patients in the use of VNS Therapy for patients with refractory seizures who have failed initial trials of anti-epileptic drug (AED) therapy. The data being collected is not for the purposes of confirmatory assessment.
NCT02408523
Evaluating efficacy \& safety of lacosamide versus Placebo in a blinded fashion as add-on Therapy for Primary Generalized Tonic-clonic (PGTC) seizures in subject 4 years of age or greater with idiopathic generalized epilepsy currently taking 1 to 3 antiepileptic drugs. Maximum duration of study drug administration is 28 weeks. Eligible subjects may choose to enter the open-label extension study after completion.
NCT03208660
This study is conducted to assess the retention rate of Fycompa when given in routine clinical care.
NCT03686033
The primary purpose of the study is to assess pharmacodynamic (PD) activity of E2082 as measured by suppression of epileptic photoparoxysmal response (PPR) in the participant's most sensitive eye condition in participants with photosensitive epilepsy, compared to placebo.
NCT01969851
SP0966 is an exploratory study to investigate safety and efficacy of Lacosamide (LCM) in children with epilepsy syndromes associated with generalized seizures. LCM will be added to current antiepileptic treatment.
NCT00938431
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of LCM syrup in children ages from 1 month to 17 years with uncontrolled partial seizures when added to 1 to 3 other antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
NCT02019667
Objective: To perform a clinical trial assessing the safety, tolerability and efficacy of the GABA(B) receptor antagonist SGS-742 in patients with SSADH deficiency. Study Population: Twenty-two children and adults with SSADH deficiency. Design: Double-blind, cross-over, phase II clinical trial. Outcome Measures: The primary outcome measures for drug efficacy will be performance on neuropsychological testing and responses to parent questionnaire. The secondary outcome measure will be TMS parameters of cortical excitation and inhibition. The outcome measures for safety will include clinical examination and neuropsychological tests.
NCT02351115
The purpose of this study is to determine whether people who usually have photosensitive epilepsy will show a reduction in epileptic activity when they take a single dose of Staccato Alprazolam as compared to placebo.
NCT02072824
This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 doses of pregabalin to reduce seizure frequency as an add on therapy in pediatric subjects 1 month to \<4 years of age with refractory partial onset seizures. It is hypothesized that both doses of pregabalin will demonstrate superior efficacy when compared to placebo by reducing the partial onset seizure frequency and that pregabalin will be safe and well tolerated.
NCT00280059
The purpose of this study is to assess whether Lyrica is a safe and effective treatment for partial epilepsy in comparison with an established treatment, Lamictal.
NCT00368069
This is a safety and efficacy study of Keppra® extended release formulation - XR in patients with epilepsy.
