研究概览

简要总结

Primary:

  • to evaluate the efficacy of phenobarbital in reducing seizure frequency.

Secondary:

  • to confirm dose response relationship,
  • to assess the effects on Type I seizures,
  • to assess the safety of phenobarbital
  • to assess the drug tolerability.

详细描述

Primary:

-to evaluate the efficacy of once daily (OD) administration of 60 mg and 100 mg phenobarbital, in reducing seizure frequency in participants with partial onset seizures (Type I seizures; complex or simple with motor symptoms only) not fully controlled despite treatment with 1 to 3 concomitant anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) or AEDs with Vagus Nerve Stimulator (VNS)

Secondary:

  • to confirm dose response relationship of 60 and 100 mg phenobarbital doses,
  • to assess the effects of phenobarbital on Type I seizures,
  • to assess the safety of phenobarbital
  • to assess the tolerability of phenobarbital
