Dravet Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Fenfluramine for the Treatment of Refractory Epilepsy in Adult Dravet Patients
Full Title: Fenfluramine for the treatment of refractory Epilepsy in Adult Dravet patients Short Title: Fenfluramine for Adult Dravet patients Clinical Phase: Phase III Sample Size: A total of 15 participants will be included in the study. Study Population: Adult patients (18 years and older) with drug-resistant epilepsy (maintained on their existing medications, with exception of cannabidiol) and genetically confirmed Dravet syndrome will be recruited to participate in the study. Accrual Period: 12 months Study Design: Open label, non-randomized and uncontrolled add-on trial in adults (18 years of age and older) residing in Ontario, with refractory motor seizures and maintained on their existing antiepileptic medications, with exception of cannabidiol. Study Duration: • Treatment period: 12 months Study duration: 28 months Study Agent/ Intervention/ Procedure: Name of study drug: fenfluramine (FINTEPLA) Dose and frequency: starting at 0.1 mg/kg twice daily, maximum 26 mg/day, in patients not taking concomitant stiripentol; starting at 0.1 mg/kg twice daily, maximum of 17 mg/day in patients taking concomitant stiripentol. All doses are divided to twice a day. Duration: Baseline phase: 4 weeks (no study drug) Titration phase: 2 weeks (if not taking stiripentol) to 3 weeks (if the patient is taking stiripentol) Treatment phase: 12 weeks Extension phase: up to 38 weeks, for patients who had at least a 50% decrease in seizure frequency Post-trial washout phase: 2 weeks (if not taking stiripentol) to 3 weeks (if the patient is taking stiripentol) Route of administration: Oral Efficacy and safety points of interest - Monthly convulsive seizure frequency (MCSF) reduction ≥ 50% - Improvement in motor function - Improvement in Cognition and Behavior - Improvement in Quality of Sleep - Improvement in Quality of life - Determination of Cardiovascular safety in adults - Responder analysis (≥25%, ≥75%, or 100% reduction in mean MCSF) - Longest period of seizure freedom - Number of Emergency room visits - Use of rescue medication (number of days in 28 day-periods) - Duration of post-ictal stage - Frequency of other seizure types - Body weight changes - Patient's global functioning prior to and after study (Clinical Global Impressions Scale) Trial registration: www.clinicaltrials.gov
