A Study of GWP42006 in People With Focal Seizures - Part B

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Focal Seizures
Epilepsy
Interventions
Drug: Placebo Control
Registration Number
NCT02365610
Lead Sponsor
Jazz Pharmaceuticals
Brief Summary

To investigate the potential antiepileptic effects of GWP42006 as add-on therapy in subjects with inadequately controlled focal seizures.

Detailed Description

This is a double blind, randomized, placebo controlled, two-part study. Part B only will be described in this record.

Subjects who satisfy all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will enter a four-week baseline period, followed by a two-week dose escalation period (400 mg twice daily for one week, then 600 mg twice daily for one week), a six-week stable treatment period (800 mg twice daily) and a 12-day taper period. Subjects will be required to attend eight study visits. A follow-up phone call will take place four weeks after last dose.

Subjects will be randomized to receive in a 1:1 ratio, GWP42006 or placebo. Subjects will be required to record a daily diary with information about their seizures, investigational medicinal product (IMP) and concomitant antiepileptic drug (AED) administration.
