结局指标
主要结局
The Cumulative Exit Rate at 112 Days After the Beginning of the Previous Antiepileptic Drug (AED) Tapering Phase
时间窗: 112 days
Cumulative exit rate at day 112, based on the duration between start date of previous AED tapering to the earliest date exit criterion was met; calculated using Kaplan Meier Methods. Subjects prematurely discontinued for reasons unrelated to exit criteria were censored as of last dose of study drug. Subjects who completed without meeting exit criteria were censored at Day 112. Exit criteria include increase in seizure frequency, severity, duration, status epilepticus, or new generalized seizure. Upper 95% 2-sided confidence limit for exit rate is compared to the historical control rate: 0.678.
次要结局
- The Cumulative Rate of Exit Events, Which Include Discontinuation Due to Exit Criteria, Withdrawal Due to Adverse Events (AE) and Withdrawal Due to Lack of Efficacy, at 112 Days After the Beginning of Previous Antiepileptic Drug (AED) Tapering Phase(112 days)
- The Cumulative Rate of Exit Events Due to Any Reasons at 112 Days After the Beginning of Previous Antiepileptic Drug (AED) Tapering Phase(112 days)
- The Cumulative Exit Rate at 112 Days for the Keppra XR 1000 mg Group After the Beginning of the Previous Antiepileptic Drug (AED) Tapering Phase(112 days)
