入选标准

  • diagnosis of epilepsy with uncontrolled partial onset seizures, whether or not secondarily generalized, and the diagnosis was >= 6 months before the Selection Visit
  • epilepsy was classifiable according to the ILAE Classification
  • >= 4 partial onset seizures during the 4 weeks preceding the Selection Visit and were required to have >= 4 partial onset seizures during each 4-week interval of the Baseline Period to qualify for randomization
  • unsatisfactory current AED treatment in terms of efficacy and/or safety
  • stable AED treatment consisting of no more than two AEDs

排除标准

  • treatable seizure etiology
  • epilepsy secondary to a progressive cerebral disease or any other progressively neurodegenerative disease, including Rasmussen and Landau-Kleffner diseases
  • history of status epilepticus which required hospitalization during 3 months prior to the Selection Visit
  • history of or the presence of pseudo seizures
  • current diagnosis of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome

研究组 & 干预措施

Levetiracetam (LEV)

Experimental

LEV dose was titrated to a level of 60 mg/kg/day. The initial dose level was 20 mg/kg/day for the first two weeks, followed by a dose level of 40 mg/kg/day for two weeks. If lower doses were well tolerated, the LEV dose was increased to a dose level of 60 mg/kg/day for the remaining 10 weeks. The dose level could be reduced to 40 mg/kg/day if the patient did not tolerate LEV at a dose level of 60 mg/kg/day.

干预措施: Levetiracetam (Drug)

Placebo

Placebo Comparator

Subjects received Placebo matching to LEV treatment.

干预措施: Placebo (Drug)

  • Total seizure frequency per week (Types I + II + III) during the Treatment Period(During the 14-weeks Treatment period (Week 8 to Week 22))
  • Total seizure frequency per week (Types I + II + III) during the Titration Period(During the 6-weeks Titration period (Week 8 to Week 14))
  • Change from baseline in the average duration of seizure free intervals(From Baseline to the 14-weeks Treatment period)
  • Partial onset seizure frequency per week during the Titration Period(During the 6-weeks Titration period (Week 8 to Week 14))
  • Absolute change from baseline in partial onset seizure frequency per week during the Treatment Period(Baseline, During the 14-weeks Treatment period (Week 8 to Week 22))

  • Partial onset seizure frequency per week during the Evaluation Period(During the 6-weeks Evaluation period (Week 8 to Week 14))
  • Percent change from baseline in partial onset seizure frequency per week during the Evaluation Period(Baseline, During the 8-weeks Evaluation period (Week 14 to Week 22))
  • Cumulative percentage of patients who were seizure-free since the beginning of the Evaluation Period(Beginning of the Evaluation Period (Week 14))
  • Percent change from baseline in partial onset seizure frequency per week during the Titration Period(Baseline, During the 6-weeks Titration period (Week 8 to Week 14))
