ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Study Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Over the Duration of the Treatment PeriodFrom Visit 1 (Week 0) to End of Treatment Period (up to approximately 5 years)
AEs were considered treatment-emergent if event had onset on or after date of first study medication dose in EP0012 and within 30 days following last study medication dose or events whose intensity worsened on or after date of first study medication dose and within 30 days following date of last study medication administration. Adverse Events were reported spontaneously by the participant and/or caregiver or observed by the investigator.
PrimaryNumber of Study Participants Withdrawn Due to TEAEsFrom Visit 1 (Week 0) to End of Treatment Period (up to approximately 5 years)
AEs were considered treatment-emergent if event had onset on or after date of first study medication dose in EP0012 and within 30 days following last study medication dose or events whose intensity worsened on or after date of first study medication dose and within 30 days following date of last study medication administration. Adverse Events were reported spontaneously by the participant and/or caregiver or observed by the investigator.
PrimaryNumber of Study Participants With New Appearance of Absence and/or Myoclonic Seizures During the Treatment PeriodFrom Visit 1 (Week 0) to End of Treatment Period (up to approximately 5 years)
The number of study participants with appearance of new absence and/or myoclonic seizure types experienced during the Treatment Period but who did not experience in Combined Baseline Period or in seizure classification history, before taking LCM were reported. To determine appearance of new seizure type, the Combined Baseline Period was used. Thus, the participants who directly enrolled into EP0012, the Baseline absence, and/or myoclonic seizure data from SP0982's 4-week Prospective Baseline Period were combined with any reported Baseline absence, and myoclonic seizure information in the daily seizure diary from EP0012 (reported before first dose in EP0012) to recalculate the study participant's Baseline variables such as days with absence, and/or myoclonic seizures per 28 days.
PrimaryNumber of Study Participants With an Increase of up to 25% in Days With Absence Seizures Per 28 Days During the Treatment Period as Compared to the Prospective Baseline (of Study SP0982)From Visit 1 (Week 0) to End of Treatment Period (up to approximately 5 years), compared to the Prospective SP0982 Baseline Period
The number of participants experiencing an increase of up to 25% in the number of days with absence seizures per 28 days during the Treatment Period compared to the Prospective Baseline Period (for those participants with absence seizure data reported in the 4-week Prospective Baseline Period in SP0982) were reported. This period started on the day of Visit 1 of SP0982 and ended the day before Visit 2 of SP0982. For the direct enrollers into EP0012, Prospective Baseline ended the day before Visit 1 (or prior to first dose) of EP0012.
