Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Median Percentage Change From Baseline in 28-day Seizure Frequency During the Treatment Period (Maximum 6 Years)Baseline (8-week Baseline Period from the parent study SP0754 [NCT00136019]), Treatment Period (Maximum 6 years)

Negative changes from Baseline indicate an improvement (i.e., a reduction) in 28-day seizure frequency.

Percentage of at Least 50 % Responders During the Treatment Period (Maximum 6 Years)Treatment Period (Maximum 6 years)

At least 50 percent response is based on the percentage reduction in 28-day seizure frequency during the Treatment Period of the open-label extension relative to the Baseline Phase of the prior study.
