入选标准
- •Participant is ≥1 to <2 years of age as of the day of the first administration of study drug
- •Participant has a documented diagnosis or likely diagnosis of Dravet syndrome according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria and as agreed by the Epilepsy Study Consortium (ESC)
- •Participant must be currently receiving ≥1 concomitant anti seizure medication (ASM) at a stable dose for ≥4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit and is expected to remain stable throughout the study. Rescue medications for seizures are not counted towards the total number of ASMs
- •Participant must have drug resistant epilepsy as defined as a history of failure of adequate trials of 2 tolerated, appropriately chosen and used antiepileptic drug schedules (whether as monotherapies or in combination) to achieve sustained seizure freedom
- •Participants must have ≥1 countable motor seizures (CMS) during the Baseline Period. The CMS include distinct seizures of generalized tonic-clonic, bilateral clonic, focal motor, bilateral tonic, atonic (drop), bilateral tonic/atonic, or focal to bilateral tonic-clonic type. If the participant fails to have ≥1 qualifying seizures in 28 days, the Baseline Period may be extended by an additional 14 days with Sponsor approval. Participants with an extended Baseline Period must still have ≥1 CMS in the 28 days immediately prior to the day of the first administration of study drug
- •Body weight is ≥8 kg
- •Males and females
排除标准
- •Participant has a known hypersensitivity to fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) or any of the excipients in the study drug
- •Participant has an exclusionary cardiovascular or cardiopulmonary abnormality based on echocardiogram (ECHO), electrocardiogram (ECG), or physical examination and is not approved for entry by the central cardiac reader
- •Participant has a diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension
- •Participant has a clinically significant medical condition, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, or portal hypertension, or has had clinically relevant symptoms or a clinically significant illness currently or in the 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit, other than epilepsy, that in the opinion of the Investigator would negatively impact study participation, collection of study data, or pose a risk to the participant
- •Participant has current or past history of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, such as cardiac valvulopathy, myocardial infarction or stroke, severe ventricular arrhythmias, or clinically significant structural cardiac abnormality, including but not limited to mitral valve prolapse, atrial or ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, and patent foramen ovale with reversal of shunt. (Note: Patent foramen ovale or a bicuspid aortic valve are not considered exclusionary.)
- •Participant has a current or past history of glaucoma
- •Participant has moderate to severe hepatic impairment, assessed based on the Child-Pugh classification system
- •Participant has moderate to severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate <50 mL/min/1.73 m^2 calculated with the updated Bedside Schwartz equation for children
- •QT interval corrected (QTc) >450 msec
- •Participant is taking >4 concomitant ASMs
- •Participant is receiving concomitant treatment with cannabidiol other than Epidiolex/Epidyolex or is being actively treated with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or any marijuana product for any condition
- •Participant is receiving concomitant therapy with any of the following: centrally-acting anorectic agents; monoamine-oxidase inhibitors; any centrally-acting compound with clinically appreciable amount of serotonin agonist or antagonist properties, including serotonin reuptake inhibition; other centrally-acting noradrenergic agonists, including atomoxetine; or cyproheptadine. Disallowed medications are subject to washout of ≥5 half-lives before the first day of study drug administration
- •Participant is currently receiving another investigational product(s) or has received another investigational product within 30 days or within <5 times the half-life of that investigational product, whichever is longer, prior to the Screening Visit
- •Participant has previously been treated with Fintepla (fenfluramine HCl) prior to the Screening Visit
研究组 & 干预措施
Fenfluramine Open-label
All study participants will initiate fenfluramine hydrochloride (HCl) treatment at 0.2 mg/kg/day in the Dose-Finding Period and may be up-titrated to a maximum of 0.8 mg/kg/day based on the Investigators discretion. The dose of fenfluramine HCl can be flexibly titrated during the Maintenance Period. Study participants, who discontinue early will participate in the Taper Period. All participants will complete an End of Treatment (EOT) Visit.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline in QT interval corrected by Fridericia (QTcF) at Visit 13 (End of Treatment/Early Termination (EOT/ET))
时间窗: Week 52 (Visit 13; EOT/ET), compared to Baseline
QTcF is the QT interval corrected for heart rate according to Fridericia's formula. Higher values correspond to prolongation of QT interval.
Occurrence of treatment-emergent (ie, post-Baseline through Visit 13 [EOT/ET]) clinically confirmed valvular heart disease (VHD)
时间窗: From post-Baseline (Day 1) through Visit 13 (EOT/ET) (up to 52 weeks)
Clinically confirmed VHD is an aortic regurgitation with mild or greater severity and/or a mitral regurgitation with moderate or greater severity.
Occurrence of a treatment-emergent (ie, post-Baseline through Visit 13 [EOT/ET]) result which meets the FDA case definition of drug associated valvulopathy
时间窗: From post-Baseline (Day 1) through Visit 13 (EOT/ET) (up to 52 weeks)
Drug associated valvulopathy refers to aortic regurgitation with severity mild or greater and/or mitral regurgitation with severity moderate or greater.
Change from Baseline in body weight (Z-score) at each visit
时间窗: Week 1 (Visit 3), Week 4 (Visit 5), Week 8 (Visit 7), Week 12 (Visit 8), Week 16 (Visit 9), Week 20 (Visit 10), Week 26 (Visit 11), Week 39 (Visit 12), Week 52 (Visit 13), Postdose Safety Follow-Up (Visit 14), compared to Baseline
Body weight (Z-score) refers to the number of standard deviations a participant's body weight lies from the mean, when compared to others of similar gender and age.
Occurrence of a clinically significant abnormality on the neurological examination at each visit
时间窗: Week 1 (Visit 3), Week 4 (Visit 5), Week 8 (Visit 7), Week 12 (Visit 8), Week 16 (Visit 9), Week 20 (Visit 10), Week 26 (Visit 11), Week 39 (Visit 12), Week 52 (Visit 13), Postdose Safety Follow-Up (Visit 14), compared to Baseline
A complete neurological examination will be conducted by the investigator for each participant covering cranial nerves, muscle strength and tone, reflexes, coordination, sensory function, and gait.
Change from Baseline in recumbent length (Z-score) at each visit
时间窗: Week 1 (Visit 3), Week 4 (Visit 5), Week 8 (Visit 7), Week 12 (Visit 8), Week 16 (Visit 9), Week 20 (Visit 10), Week 26 (Visit 11), Week 39 (Visit 12), Week 52 (Visit 13), Postdose Safety Follow-Up (Visit 14), compared to Baseline
Recumbent length (Z-score) refers to the number of standard deviations a participant's body weight lies from the mean, when compared to others of similar gender and age.
