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.

Part 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.

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.
