简要总结
This is a Randomized, Multicentre, Open Label, Active Controlled, Parallel Group, Phase III Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Cenobamate Tablets in Comparison with Eslicarbazepine acetate Tablets in Adult Patients suffering from Focal Onset Seizures. Subjects randomized to the test arm will receive Cenobamate tablets once
daily for 18 weeks. Subjects will receive Cenobamate 12.5 mg tablets once
daily for the first 2 weeks. The dose will be up titrated to 25 mg once daily
on week 3, 50 mg once daily on week 5, 100 mg once daily on week 7 and
150 mg once daily on week 9. From week 11 to 16 (Day 77 to 112)
Subjects will receive 200 mg Cenobamate tablets once daily
(maintenance dose). Following this period, the dose will be tapered off.
On week 17 the dose will get down-titrated to 100 mg once daily and after
4 days the dose will get reduced to 50 mg once daily. On week 18 the dose
will get down-titrated to 25 mg once daily and after 4 days the dose will
get reduced to 12.5 mg once daily and then stopped.
Subjects randomized to the comparator arm will receive Eslicarbazepine
400 mg tablets once daily for the first 5 weeks. From Week 6 to Week 10
Subjects will receive Eslicarbazepine 600 mg tablets once daily. From
Week 11 to 18 (Day 77 to 126) Subjects will receive the maintenance dose
of 800 mg Eslicarbazepine tablets once daily.The total study duration is approximately 23 weeks (1 week screening
period, 4 weeks run-in period, 16 weeks treatment period and 2 weeks
tapering period
