Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Rufinamide | Participants received rufinamide oral suspension as an add-on therapy to the participant's existing regimen of 1 to 3 AEDs. Participants underwent a 2 week Titration Period during which rufinamide dose was increased from 10 mg/kg/day in increments of 10 mg/kg/day every 3 days to 40 mg/kg/day and thereafter in increments of 5 mg/kg/day to the target maintenance dose of 45 mg/kg/day (all daily treatments were to be administered in 2 equally divided doses). Rufinamide dose reached at the end of the Titration period were to be maintained the same throughout the 104-week Maintenance Period. At the end of Maintenance Period, rufinamide dose should be tapered (as needed) over a period of 2 weeks. | 1 | 25 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Any Other Approved Antiepileptic Drug | Participants received any other approved AEDs of the investigator's choice, dosed according to the investigator's usual practice, added to the participant's existing regimen of 1 to 3 AEDs. At the end of Maintenance Period, the AED comparator would be discontinued according to the investigator's usual practice. | 0 | 12 | EG001 |
