Registered outcomes5
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percent Change From Baseline in the Number of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC)-Associated Seizures During the Treatment Period (Maintenance and Titration) | Baseline; up to Week 16 | TSC-associated seizures included: focal motor seizures without impairment of consciousness or awareness (Type 1 focal motor); focal seizures with impairment of consciousness or awareness (Type 2 focal); focal seizures evolving to bilateral generalized convulsive seizures (Type 3 focal); and tonic-clonic, tonic, clonic, or atonic seizures that are countable. Percent change from Baseline was calculated as the (post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value) divided by the Baseline value x 100. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants Considered Treatment Responders During the Treatment Period (Maintenance and Titration) | Baseline; up to Week 16 | Treatment responders are defined as those participants with a ≥ 50% reduction in TSC-associated seizure frequency. TSC-associated seizures included: focal motor seizures without impairment of consciousness or awareness (Type 1 focal motor); focal seizures with impairment of consciousness or awareness (Type 2 focal); focal seizures evolving to bilateral generalized convulsive seizures (Type 3 focal); and tonic-clonic, tonic, clonic, or atonic seizures that are countable. Participants who withdrew from the trial during the treatment period are considered non-responders. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in the Caregiver Global Impression of Change (CGIC) or Participant Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score at the Participant's Last Visit | Baseline; up to Week 16 | The combined caregiver and participant summary uses either the caregiver or participant version if only one version was completed, or the caregiver version if both caregiver and participant versions were completed. The CGIC comprised the following question, to be rated on a 7-point scale (1, Very Much Improved; 2, Much Improved; 3, Slightly Improved; 4, No Change; 5, Slightly Worse; 6, Much Worse; 7, Very Much Worse): "Since your child started treatment, please assess the status of your child's overall condition (comparing their condition now to their condition before treatment)." The SGIC comprised the following question, to be rated on a 7-point scale (1, Very Much Improved; 2, Much Improved; 3, Slightly Improved; 4, No Change; 5, Slightly Worse; 6, Much Worse; 7, Very Much Worse): "Since you started treatment, please assess the status of your overall condition (comparing your condition now to your condition before treatment)." |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in Total Seizures During the Treatment Period (Maintenance and Titration) | Baseline; up to Week 16 | Total seizures included all seizure types combined. Percent change from Baseline was calculated as the (post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value) divided by the Baseline value x 100. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Any Severe Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) | up to approximately Week 22 | A TEAE was defined as an AE with a start date on or after the first dose of IMP during the Blinded Phase up to and including the date of first dose of the Open-label Extension (OLE) Phase (OLE Day 1). |

Participant data were analyzed according to the treatment group to which they were randomized. | percent change | MEDIAN |

| SECONDARY | Change From Baseline in the Caregiver Global Impression of Change (CGIC) or Participant Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score at the Participant's Last Visit | Baseline; up to Week 16 | ITT Analysis Set.
