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 | Low Dose | Dosage is in mg: low dose carbamazepine, 300; low dose levetiracetam, 500; low dose valproate, 300; low dose zonisamide, 150; low dose oxcarbazepine, 600; low dose topiramate, 100; low dose lamotrigine, 100; low dose gabapentin, 450; low dose lacosamide 100 mg. Study drugs are in form of tablets for daily administration. Study drug administration duration is 12 months. The choice of the drug is left to the caring physician's discretion but it must be limited to the AEDs marketed for monotherapy use. All the study drugs will be used according to the respective SPCs, which will be sent by the promoter to all the study investigators.~The arm/group low dose includes all the interventions listed above which correspond to low dose of each antiepileptic monotherapy.~All the results were grouped by arm/group. In the adverse events tables all the single drugs were specified in each arm/group.~The aim of this study was to compare the low dose arm/group versus the standard dose arm/group independently from the specific intervention/drug prescribed by the neurologist. Randomization was done by dose and not by drug. The drug has been chosen by the treating physician. | 0 | 29 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Standard Dose | Dosage is in mg: standard dose carbamazepine 600; standard dose levetiracetam 1000; standard dose valproate, 600; standard dose zonisamide 300; standard dose oxcarbazepine 1200; standard dose topiramate, 200; standard dose lamotrigine, 200; standard dose gabapentin 900; standard dose lacosamide 200 mg. Study drugs are in form of tablets for daily administration. Study drug administration duration is 12 months. The choice of the drug is left to the caring physician's discretion but it must be limited to the AEDs marketed for monotherapy use. All the study drugs will be used according to the respective SPCs, which will be sent by the promoter to all the study investigators.~The arm/group standard dose includes all the interventions listed above which correspond to standard dose of each antiepileptic monotherapy.~All the results were grouped by arm/group.
