Registered outcomes4
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants in Each Treatment Group Achieving Seizure Activity Cessation Within 2 Minutes and no Recurrent Seizure Within 2 Hours | 2 hours post-dosing on dosing day | Percentage of participants with onset of a predictable seizure through 2 minutes post dosing with study drug and no recurrence of seizure activity within 2 hours were reported for each treatment group based on clinical observation. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Seizure Episode Severity Assessed by Seizure Episode Severity Scale | 6 hours post-dosing on dosing day | Severity of on study seizure episode compared to previously experienced seizures was assessed with Seizure Episode Severity Scale. It is a 5-point scale with range from 1 to 5, where 1 indicates much worse than and 5 indicates much better than. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Use of Rescue Medication | 2 hours post-dosing on dosing day | Percentage of participants with use of rescue medication to stop a seizure episode at the discretion of the principal investigator were reported. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Secondary Generalization (Evolution to a Complex Partial Seizure and/or a Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizure) | 24 hours post-dosing on dosing day | Percentage of participants who had seizures that evolved to a complex partial seizure and/or a generalized tonic-clonic seizure were reported. |
