Filter by:The ENACT trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ENX-101 administered adjunctively to current therapy in reducing seizure frequency in patients diagnosed with focal (partial onset) epilepsy and treated with 1 to 4 antiseizure medications yet still experiencing seizures.
This will be a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study to evaluate the effects of 2007/Fycompa (perampanel) on sleep, in subjects with well controlled partial onset seizures (on an antiepileptic drug [AED] monotherapy) who are experiencing sleep onset insomnia.
This is an open-label, single centre, parallel group study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of single oral doses of retigabine XR formulation in healthy adult Japanese subjects. To compare the pharmacokinetic and safety profile, Caucasian subjects are also incorporated. This study is intended to facilitate inclusion of Japanese patients in the global phase III program for retigabine XR formulation.
The purpose of the Phase II clinical trial will be to see if a botanical extract from the plant Passiflora incarnata can improve seizure control and reduce anxiety in patients diagnosed with partial epilepsy. The investigators will randomize approximately 25 participants with partial epilepsy for this placebo controlled, double blind, and crossover study. All patients will be scheduled for 10 clinic visits and four telephone visits during the 32-week period of the trial. After enrollment into the study, all participants will begin a 9-week observation phase, which serves as an individual baseline control. After 9 weeks participants will be randomized to receive either study drug or placebo for an 11 week study period. After completion of the 11 week study period, patients will crossover to the other study drug/placebo arm for another 11 weeks. Epilepsy participants will continue taking their anti-epileptic medication as currently prescribed. The investigators will find participants through the OHSU clinics, by notifying local neurologists, anthroposophical and naturopathic practices, and by advertising the study via the local chapter of the American Epilepsy Society. Routine blood tests, physical examinations and tests to monitor heart, brain and muscle activities will screen for any adverse effects. The primary outcome measure will be seizure frequency through seizure diaries. Attention and performance tests, neurological and quality of life questionnaires will be completed to assess the secondary outcome measures of anxiety, cognitive function and quality of life.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of seletracetam when it is used in addition to other anti-epileptic medications by patients with partial onset seizures. It will also help to determine the best dose to use.
