A RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, DOSE FINDING STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF PADSEVONIL AS ADJUNCTIVE TREATMENT OF FOCAL-ONSET SEIZURES IN ADULT SUBJECTS WITH DRUG-RESISTANT EPILEPSY

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Epilepsy and epilepsy syndrome
Registration Number
JPRN-jRCT2080224509
Lead Sponsor
CB Japan Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

The primary efficacy variable, the change in observable focal-onset seizure frequency from Baseline over the 12-week Maintenance Period, was not statistically significant compared with placebo in any PSL dose group. Overall, PSL was generally well tolerated and the safety profile was as expected, based on the pharmacology of the AED, and was consistent with previous experience with PSL.
