ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
Primary
Part 1: Percent Change From Baseline in the Frequency of Seizures That Result in Drops (ESC-confirmed) in the Combined Titration and Maintenance Period (T+M) in the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day Group Compared to the Placebo Group
From Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
Percent change in frequency of seizures that result in drops (DSF: drop seizure frequency) per 28 days between the combined Titration and Maintenance (T+M) and Baseline. The percent change from Baseline DSF was calculated as the change in DSF between T+M and Baseline / DSF during Baseline\* 100. The seizure types included in the count were: atonic, tonic, tonic/atonic, generalized tonic-clonic, and secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures resulting in drops.
PrimaryPart 2: Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)From Part 2 Baseline until end of the OLE Period (up to 72 months)
An Adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavourable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of investigational product, or whether considered related to the investigational product. A TEAE in Part 2 was defined as any AE with an onset on or after the first dose in Part 2. AEs with onset in Part 1 that are ongoing in Part 2 were not included in the count of AEs in Part 2.
PrimaryPart 2: Percentage of Participants With Serious TEAEsFrom Part 2 Baseline until end of the OLE Period (up to 72 months)
A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: Results in death, is life-threatening, requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, is a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or is medically significant.
SecondaryPart 1: Percent Change From Baseline in the Frequency of Seizures That Result in Drops (ESC-confirmed) in T+M in the ZX008 0.2 mg/kg/Day Group Compared to the Placebo GroupFrom Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
Percent change in frequency of seizures that result in drops (DSF: drop seizure frequency) per 28 days between the combined Titration and Maintenance (T+M) and Baseline. The percent change from Baseline DSF was calculated as the change in DSF between T+M and Baseline / DSF during Baseline\* 100. The seizure types included in the count were: atonic, tonic, tonic/atonic, generalized tonic-clonic, and secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures resulting in drops.
Secondary
Part 1: Percentage of Participants Who Achieve a >=50% Reduction From Baseline in the Frequency of Seizures That Result in Drops Comparing the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus Placebo
From Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
The seizure types included in the count were: atonic, tonic, tonic/atonic, generalized tonic-clonic, and secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures resulting in drops. Participants who achieved a \>=50% reduction from Baseline in the DSF, ie, a decrease in DSF of at least 50 percentage points per 28 days during Titration and Maintenance Period.
Secondary
Part 1: Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Improvement (Minimally, Much or Very Much Improved) in the CGI-I Scale as Assessed by Principal Investigator Comparing ZX008 0.8 and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus Placebo
At Day 99 (Visit 12)
Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) scale measures improvement in the participant's condition from Baseline. The severity of a participant's condition was rated on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse), as follows: 1-very much improved,2-much improved, 3-minimally improved, 4- no change, 5-minimally worse, 6-much worse and 7-very much worse.
Secondary
Part 1: Percent Change From Baseline in Frequency of All Seizures That Typically Result in Drops in T+M, Whether ESC-confirmed as Drop or Not in the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus Placebo
From Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
Seizures that typically result in drops included all: generalized tonic-clonic seizures \[GTC\], secondarily generalized tonic-clonic \[SGTC\], tonic seizures \[TS\], atonic seizures \[AS\], and tonic/atonic seizures \[TA\], whether confirmed by the ESC or not. Seizures that result in a drop were defined as seizures involving the entire body, trunk, or head that led to a fall, injury, slumping in a chair, or the participant's head hitting a surface or that could have led to a fall or injury, depending on the patient's position at the time of the seizure.
SecondaryPart 1: Percent Change From Baseline in the Frequency of All Countable Motor Seizures in T+M in the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus PlaceboFrom Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]Countable motor seizures included: GTC, SGTC, TS, AS, TA, clonic seizures \[CS\], hemiclonic seizures \[HS\], and focal seizures \[FS\] with clearly observable signs.
SecondaryPart 1: Change From Baseline in the Frequency of All Countable Non-motor Seizures in T+M in the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus PlaceboFrom Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
Countable non-motor seizures included: focal seizures \[FS\] without clear observable signs, myoclonic seizures \[MS\], absence/atypical absence, infantile spasms, epileptic spasms, and other seizures. For each participant, the seizure frequency per 28 days was calculated as the number of seizures recorded during the period, divided by the number of days in the period and multiplied by 28.
SecondaryPart 1: Percent Change From Baseline in the Frequency of All Countable Seizures (Motor and Non-motor) in T+M in the ZX008 0.8 mg/kg/Day and 0.2 mg/kg/Day Groups Independently Versus PlaceboFrom Baseline up to 14 weeks [Titration Period (2 weeks) + Maintenance Period (12 weeks)]
Countable motor seizures included: GTC, SGTC, TS, AS, TA, CS, HS, and FS with clearly observable signs. Countable non-motor seizures included: FS without clear observable signs, MS, absence/atypical absence, infantile spasms, epileptic spasms, and other seizures.

The OLE Safety Population included all participants who received at least 1 dose of ZX008 during the OLE. As pre-specified in study design, participants in Part 2 received individualized optimized treatment (0.2 mg/kg/day to 0.8 mg/kg/day) based on Investigator discretion. Hence overall data for Part 2 is reported.
