Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this meta-analysis is to provide data on long-term safety and efficacy following the recent positive Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) opinion for retigabine using pooled data from ongoing open-label extension (OLE) Studies VRX-RET-E22-303 and VRX-RET-E22-304.

Description:

Data from the October 2009 data-cut of ongoing Studies VRX-RET-E22-303 (Study 303) and VRX-RET-E22-304 (Study 304) will be pooled, summarized, and published with the goal of providing updated long-term safety and efficacy information for subjects and prescribers following the recent positive CHMP opinion for retigabine for adjunctive use in patients with partial seizures. Studies 303 and 304 are the open-label extensions of two Phase 3 studies (VRX-RET-E22-301 and VRX-RET-E22-302), respectively. Studies 301 and 302 were randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter studies of 600 mg and 900 mg per day (Study 302) and 1200 mg per day (Study 301). All subjects who wished to enter the OLE studies and, in the opinion of the investigator, were expected to benefit from participation in the OLEs, entered a 6-week (Study 301) or 4-week (Study 302) transition phase in which their dose of retigabine was titrated to or maintained at 400 mg TID (Study 301) or 300 mg TID (Study 302). Upon completion of the Transition phase, subjects enrolled into the extension studies. Once enrolled in the OLE, doses could be adjusted within the range of 600 mg to 1200 mg per day. Treatment in Studies 303 and 304 is planned to continue until regulatory approval and commercialization of retigabine or until the program is discontinued.
