NCT05140265
This proposal outlines the steps required for the creation of a pilot database of EEG recordings and de-identified medical records from patients internally referred within the UNMH Comprehensive Epilepsy Center. The UNMH EEG Corpus would be the first database of its kind. Other public databases contain either patient EEG signals or medical records, but without both kinds of information, it is impossible to relate pre-treatment neurobiomarkers with post-treatment prognosis. The database will also contain information that can improve seizure localization based off of scalp and intracranial EEG, and the requisite data for the creation of algorithms that forecast seizure activity; a development that could ultimately lead to novel responsive neural stimulation procedures that suppress seizures before they begin.
NCT06038617
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the safety of COVID-19 vaccination and other routine childhood vaccines given simultaneously at Visit 1, as compared to sequential vaccination of COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines at separate visits (Visits 1 and 2). Parent(s) or legal authorized representative(s) (LAR) will assess fever and other solicited systemic adverse events on the day of vaccination (Day 1) and the next 6 days (through Day 7) following Visit 1 and Visit 2 using either a web-based data collection system or a paper memory aid. Serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be captured during the entire study period. Parental/LAR perceptions about their child's vaccine schedule will be assessed on Day 7 following Visit 2.

NCT05076617
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Staccato alprazolam.
NCT06388707
This will be a prospective, open-label, single-arm, multi-center, pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) neuromodulation using NaviFUS System in patients with drug-resistant unilateral or bilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (DR-TLE).
NCT07508670
An observational clinical investigation of the NeuroBell EEG Monitor (a portable and wireless EEG monitor).
NCT07130786
This is a randomized trial for patients with brain metastases in the primary motor cortex who have not had seizures to receive either the prophylactic anti-seizure medication levetiracetam (also known by its trade name Keppra) or proceed with standard of care management, which does not currently include prophylactic levetiracetam. Patients who enroll to this trial will be randomized to receive prophylactic levetiracetam or not receive prophylactic levetiracetam.
NCT05819268
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a future fully powered multi-site efficacy Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) comparing two treatments for pediatric functional seizures (FS). In this study, 11-18-year-olds diagnosed with FS will be randomized to 12 sessions of Retraining and Control Therapy (ReACT) or Competent Adulthood Transition with Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic, and Interpersonal Training (CATCH-IT) at 3 sites: University of Alabama at Birmingham, Yale School of Medicine/Yale New Haven Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine/Texas Children's Hospital. Feasibility of recruitment will be measured by the percentage of planned participant enrollment target obtained at each site and overall during the 18 months of planned enrollment. Acceptability will be assessed using the Acceptability Questionnaire. Participant retention will be measured by the percent of enrolled participants that complete the 2-month follow-up visit at each site and overall. For treatment fidelity assessment, 20% of each therapist's sessions will be randomly chosen and assessed for fidelity. Patient adherence will be measured in two ways: 1) the percent of ReACT or CATCH-IT sessions completed at each site and overall and 2) for ReACT, the percent of times participants report using the treatment plan during FS episodes (measured by FS diary) and for CATCH-IT, the number of times parents and children spend using CATCH-IT each week (measured by the CATCH-IT platform). These data will be used to support a future fully-powered multi-site RCT assessing the efficacy of ReACT for pediatric FS.
NCT05667142
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of XEN1101 administered as adjunctive treatment in primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (PGTCS).
NCT07257705
This study is testing a new mobile application called the OASES App, developed by the University of Milano-Bicocca. The App is designed to help frontline clinicians (nurses, clinical officers, and nursing assistants) provide faster and more accurate emergency care for patients with life-threatening conditions such as severe diarrhea, breathing difficulties, and seizures. The OASES App guides clinicians step by step through internationally recognized emergency care guidelines, including triage, diagnosis, and treatment recommendations. It is intended to be used offline on a tablet, making it suitable for rural hospitals with limited resources. This is a pilot study to understand whether the App improves the way clinicians manage simulated emergency cases compared to standard practice. About 16 clinicians at Dr. Ambrosoli Memorial Hospital, Kalongo, Uganda will take part in structured simulation exercises using realistic patient scenarios. Each participant will manage cases with and without the App, so that the two approaches can be compared. The main goal is to evaluate whether the App helps clinicians follow evidence-based guidelines more consistently. Other goals include measuring accuracy of triage, diagnosis, and treatment decisions, as well as the time needed to complete cases and clinicians' perceptions of usability, trust, and feasibility. No real patients will be involved in this study. All scenarios are simulations conducted in a safe, controlled environment. The results will help refine the App and inform the design of a larger study in the future.
NCT06922734
This research aims to determine the frequency of seizures in patients following a stroke, identify risk factors associated with post-stroke seizures, and characterize EEG changes linked to these seizures. Unexplored alterations in the aperiodic component of the EEG in post-stroke patients could potentially serve as novel biological markers for epilepsy after stroke.

An outpatient randomized controlled clinical trial conducted at the Northeast Regional Epilepsy Group's PNES Program, involving mental health clinicians certified in PE and trained in administering PsychoEd.
NCT07234695
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether levetiracetam can prevent epileptic seizures in patients with Alzheimer's disease associated with Down syndrome. It will also analyze whether it can delay the neurodegeneration associated with this disease. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will receive the active drug (levetiracetam), and the other will receive a placebo. Both groups will receive the treatment for 96 weeks. Each patient will participate for a total of 2 years and 5 months.

To generate preliminary safety and effectiveness data for brain-responsive neurostimulation of thalamocortical networks as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of generalized seizures in individuals 12 years of age or older with Lennox Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) who are refractory to antiseizure medications. The intent is to determine the feasibility and the optimal design of a subsequent pivotal study in order to expand the indication for use for the RNS System as a treatment for patients with medically intractable LGS.
NCT04686786
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of CVL-865 as adjunctive therapy in participants with focal onset seizures.
NCT07274410
Neonatal convulsions are seizures that occur during the first 28 days of a newborn's life. They are considered a medical emergency and often indicate an underlying problem in the brain, such as lack of oxygen at birth, infections, metabolic disturbances, or structural abnormalities. Many seizures in newborns are subtle and difficult to detect without careful clinical assessment. This study aims to determine how often neonatal convulsions occur among newborns admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Assiut University Children Hospital. It will describe how affected newborns present clinically, identify the main causes, and evaluate the early outcomes during hospitalization. The study is designed as a prospective cohort study. Newborns aged 0-30 days who are diagnosed with neonatal convulsions will be enrolled and followed throughout their stay in the NICU. Each patient will undergo full clinical evaluation and standard laboratory and imaging investigations, including blood tests, neuroimaging, and other tests as clinically indicated. The findings of this study will provide updated local data on the incidence, causes, and outcomes of neonatal convulsions in our region. This information may help improve early diagnosis, guide appropriate treatment, and enhance the quality of neonatal care.
NCT06598189
The proposed study is an investigator-initiated study that aims to measure the accuracy of a wearable seizure detection and prediction device (Ear-Seizure Detection Device (EarSD)) by simultaneous recording with conventional video-EEG (Electroencephalogram) on patients with epileptic seizures in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit of the hospital.
