简要总结
This Phase 3 study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retigabine dosed at 1200 mg/day, in three equally divided doses, compared with placebo in patients with epilepsy who are receiving up to three established antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
详细描述
This Phase 3 study is being conducted in North America, Argentina, and Brazil to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retigabine dosed at 1200 mg/day, in three equally divided doses, compared with placebo in patients with epilepsy who are receiving up to three established antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). The primary objective is to demonstrate a superior change in total partial seizure frequency for four weeks from baseline to the double-blind period. The proportion of responders (greater than or equal to 50% reduction in total partial seizure frequency for four weeks from baseline to the double-blind period) will also be evaluated.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants Who Were Responders and Non-responders in the Maintenance Phase
时间窗: Week 7 through Week 18
Responders were participants with at least a 50% reduction in the 28-day total partial seizure frequency in the Maintenance Phase as compared to the Baseline period.
Percent Change in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure (PS) Frequency From Baseline (BL) to the End of the Double-blind (DB) Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases)
时间窗: Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 1 through Week 18
28-day total PS (PSs \[also called focal seizures\] are seizures limited to a specific area of the brain) frequency in the BL period = (Number \[No.\] of total PSs reported in the BL period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the BL period) x 28 days. 28-day total PS frequency in the DB period = (No. of total PSs reported in the DB period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the DB period) x 28 days. Percent change = (\[value in the DB period minus value at BL\] divided by the BL value) x 100%. Negative values indicate a reduction in seizure frequency.
次要结局

- Percent Change From Baseline (BL) in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency During the Maintenance Phase(Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 7 through Week 18)
