Registered outcomes7
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change in Log-transformed Observable Focal Onset Seizure Frequency From Baseline Over the 12 Week Maintenance Period | From Baseline over the 12 Week Maintenance Period | During the study, participants kept diaries to record daily seizure activity. Seizure frequency refers to 28-day adjusted frequency. Seizure frequency was based on investigator assessment of participants' reports of daily seizure type and frequency. Observable focal-onset seizures refer to Type IA1, IB, and IC (ILAE Classification of Epileptic Seizures, 1981). Based on ANCOVA on change in log-transformed, 28-day adjusted seizure frequency from Baseline with treatment group as the main factor, Baseline log-transformed seizure frequency as a continuous covariate, Baseline SV2A use (yes or no) and Region (Europe, Non-Europe) as categorical factors. |
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Reported by the Subject and/or Caregiver or Observed by the Investigator During the Entire Study | From Baseline until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 23) | An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. |
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Leading to Study Withdrawal | From Baseline until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 23) | An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. |
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) During the Entire Study | From Baseline until Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 23) | A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: * Results in death * Is life-threatening * Requires in patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization * Is a congenital anomaly or birth defect * Is an infection that requires treatment parenteral antibiotics * Other important medical events which based on medical or scientific judgement may jeopardize the patients, or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the above. |
| Secondary | 75 % Responder Rate Over the 12 Week Maintenance Period | End of Maintenance Period (Week 16) following 3 Weeks of titration and 1 Week stabilization | The 75% responder rate, where a responder is a participant experiencing a ≥75% reduction in observable focal-onset seizure frequency from Baseline, over the 12-Week Maintenance Period. |
| Secondary | 50 % Responder Rate Over the 12 Week Maintenance Period | End of Maintenance Period (Week 16) following 3 Weeks of titration and 1 Week stabilization | The 50% responder rate, where a responder was a participant experiencing a ≥50% reduction in observable focal-onset seizure frequency from Baseline, over the 12-Week Maintenance Period. |
| Secondary | Percent Change in Observable Focal-onset Seizure Frequency From Baseline Over the 12 Week Maintenance Period | End of Maintenance Period (Week 16) following 3 Weeks of titration and 1 Week stabilization | During the study, participants kept diaries to record daily seizure activity. The percentage of participants who experienced a 50 % or greater reduction in seizure frequency per 28 days relative to Baseline (responders) was assessed. |
