Percentage of Subjects With a Serious Adverse Event (SAE) During the Evaluation Period From Entry Visit 1 Through End of Treatment (up to 9 Years)During the Evaluation Period (up to 9 years)

An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose resulted in death, was life threatening, required in-subject hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Percentage of Subjects With at Least One Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) During the Evaluation Period From Entry Visit 1 Through End of Treatment (up to 9 Years)During the Evaluation Period (up to 9 years)

BRV monotherapy is defined as continuous treatment with BRV only (ie, no treatment with another anti-epileptic drug (AED)). Use of rescue AED for a duration of no more than 2 consecutive days will not disqualify a subject from being defined as on continuous monotherapy provided the use of rescue AED does not exceed more than 1 time per week.

Percentage of Subjects on Continuous Brivaracetam Monotherapy for at Least 6 Months, of the Evaluation Period (up to 9 Years)During the Evaluation Period (up to 9 years)
