NCT ID: NCT00175825 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

A Dose-ranging Study With Brivaracetam in Patients From 16 to 65 Years With Refractory Partial Onset Seizures.

Start date: November 7, 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of brivaracetam (at doses of 5, 20 and 50 mg/day in twice a day administration) as add-on therapy in subjects with focal epilepsy.

NCT ID: NCT00165828 Terminated - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Safety of an add-on Treatment With Zonisamide in Adults With Focal Epileptic Seizures With or Without Secondary Generalization

Start date: May 2005
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Patients with focal epileptic seizures with or without generalization who are at present treated with one or two antiepileptic drugs are eligible for this study, provided that they fulfill all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Following a baseline phase of 8 weeks duration, the patients are randomised and they receive an initial daily dose of 50 mg zonisamide during the first week. The daily dose is then increased to 200 mg zonisamide in group A or 400 mg zonisamide in group B, respectively. After eight weeks of treatment, the daily dose in group A can be increased to 300 mg in case of insufficient efficacy. Control assessments are performed at the beginning of the study and at the end of the prospective baseline phase, if applicable and after 4, 8, 12, and 16 weeks. At the end of the first, second, and third treatment week, and at the end of week six, the patient is additionally contacted by telephone. Efficacy and safety parameters are assessed at baseline, during all control visits, and at the end of the study.

NCT ID: NCT00162981 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Clobazam in Subjects With Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome

Start date: October 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of clobazam as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of seizures which lead to drop attacks (drop seizures) in subjects 2 to 30 years of age with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS). Subjects will be enrolled at approximately 10 investigational sites in the U.S. for up to 15 weeks. Subjects will be randomly assigned to either a low dose or a high dose. The study will include a baseline period, a titration period and a maintenance period. After the maintenance period, subjects will either continue into an open-label extension study or enter the taper period with a final visit 1 week after the last dose.

NCT ID: NCT00160654 Completed - Epilepsy, Partial Clinical Trials

Open Label Safety and Efficacy Study of Levetiracetam in Patients With Epilepsy

Start date: November 24, 2003
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Community based study assessing safety and efficacy of levetiracetam in partial onset seizures. The optimal dose in daily clinical practice will be used.

NCT ID: NCT00160628 Completed - Epilepsy, Partial Clinical Trials

Open Label Safety and Efficacy Study of Levetiracetam in Korean Patients With Epilepsy

Start date: March 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A Korean open-label, community-based trial assessing the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam as adjunctive therapy in partial epilepsy. Similarity with a similar study conducted in Caucasian epileptic subjects will be assessed.

NCT ID: NCT00160615 Completed - Epilepsy, Partial Clinical Trials

Follow-up Study of L059 (Levetiracetam) in Epileptic Patients With Partial Onset Seizures by Open Label Method

Start date: September 12, 2001
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The safety and efficacy of L059 was evaluated in patients who completed "N165 Clinical Trial of L059". They received L059 at a daily dose from 1,000 mg to 3,000 mg in addition to their standard concomitant AEDs

NCT ID: NCT00160550 Completed - Clinical trials for Generalized Convulsive Epilepsy

Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Levetiracetam in Patients Suffering From Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy With Primary Generalized Tonic-clonic Seizures

Start date: September 2001
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of adjunctive treatment with LEV (3,000 mg/day or a target dose of 60 mg/kg/day in children) compared to placebo in reducing PGTC seizures in subjects (4 - 65 years) suffering from idiopathic generalized epilepsy uncontrolled despite treatment with one or two concomitant AEDs.

NCT ID: NCT00158067 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Study of an External Responsive Neurostimulator System on Epileptiform Activity

Start date: March 2002
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This feasibility clinical investigation is designed to demonstrate that the NeuroPace external Responsive Neurostimulator (model eRNS-300) can safely deliver responsive electrical stimulation automatically to affect epileptiform activity. The eRNS-300 is based on an implantable neurostimulator that has been adapted for acute, external use in a hospital setting.

NCT ID: NCT00154076 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

A Multicenter Comparative Trial of Zonisamide and Topiramate as Initial Monotherapy in Untreated Epilepsies

Start date: September 2005
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

To assess the efficacy and safety of Zonisamide and Topiramate as Initial Monotherapy in Untreated Epilepsies

NCT ID: NCT00152659 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Developing Criteria for Cortical Resections

Start date: September 1, 1998
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to study how disease processes like tumors or epilepsy spread in the brain.
