NCT ID: NCT02281422 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

An Open-label, Single-dose, Single-centre Study, Investigating the Pharmacokinetics of BIA 2-093

Start date: March 2005
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Open-label, single-dose (BIA 2-093 800 mg tablet), single-centre study in five groups of subjects with various degrees of renal function based on creatinine clearance

NCT ID: NCT02279667 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Single-dose Pharmacokinetics and Relative Bioavailability of an Oral Suspension and Two Tablet Formulations of BIA 2-093

Start date: February 2004
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Single centre, open-label, randomised, three-way crossover study in 18 healthy subjects (9 males and 9 females). The study consisted of three consecutive single-dose treatment periods separated by a washout period of 7 days or more. On each treatment period, the volunteers received a single dose of BIA 2-093 800 mg, orally.

NCT ID: NCT02276053 Completed - Clinical trials for Brain Tumor Related Epilepsy (BTRE)

Study of Lacosamide as an Adjunctive Drug Treatment for Epilepsy in Patients With Brain Tumors

VIBES
Start date: November 27, 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is being conducted to find out whether lacosamide (a drug to treat epilepsy) is effective in routine clinical practice for patients with epilepsy caused by a brain tumor.

NCT ID: NCT02269397 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

Proof of Principle for a Diagnostic Blood Test of Recurrent Seizures

Start date: July 2013
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary goal of this observational study is to establish the accuracy of CNS-specific Assay for Recurrent Paroxysmal Events (CARPE) as a diagnostic blood test for epilepsy. The target population is patients who have been newly referred to the Penn Epilepsy Center or patients who are admitted to HUP for continuous video EEG monitoring. (Subjects without an epilepsy diagnosis will be included.) Subjects will be asked to provide consent, agree to allow the study team to collect information from their medical record, and to provide at least one blood sample.

NCT ID: NCT02264652 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

High Definition Cathodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Treatment of Refractory Partial Onset Epilepsy

HD-TDCS
Start date: August 2014
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

High-Definition transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD tDCS) Genuine cathodal HD-tDCS will be delivered through High-Definition electrodes that will be arranged on the skull according to a 4x1-ring configuration with the central cathodal electrode placed over the identified target and surrounding return electrodes forming approximately a 5-cm radius ring. Aim: To explore whether a novel form of tDCS can be a safe noninvasive treatment that could potentially suppress seizures in refractory partial-onset epilepsy.

NCT ID: NCT02262156 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

CBT Versus Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor For Treatment Of Depression In Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Patients

CBTvsSSRI
Start date: August 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to compare the effect of group-cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)versus treatment as usual with the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor sertraline, in patients with diagnosis of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and depressive disorder.

NCT ID: NCT02235792 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

High Frequency Oscillations in Neurologic Disease

Start date: July 2014
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study is designed to evaluate the high-frequency range deep brain oscillations (HFO) as pathologic markers in patients undergoing deep brain stimulation for epilepsy or Parkinson disease. Newly developed technology allows for the chronic recording of these brain signals at the same time as clinical stimulation is occuring. We will learn both whether these HFO correlate with disease activity and whether the HFO change in response to ongoing stimulation (potentially giving insight into the underlying mechanism of action of DBS).

NCT ID: NCT02229318 Completed - Seizure Disorders Clinical Trials

A Taste and Acceptance Study of FruitiVits in Children Aged 4-8 Years Following a Ketogenic Diet.

FruitiVits
Start date: September 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Subjects will be asked to substitute their usual vitamin and mineral supplement/s with FruitiVits for seven consecutive days.

NCT ID: NCT02224703 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

GWPCARE2 A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Cannabidiol (GWP42003-P) in Children and Young Adults With Dravet Syndrome

Start date: April 13, 2015
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To investigate the potential antiepileptic effects of cannabidiol (GWP42003-P) in children and young adults with Dravet syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT02224690 Completed - Epilepsy Clinical Trials

A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Cannabidiol (GWP42003-P; CBD) as Adjunctive Treatment for Seizures Associated With Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome in Children and Adults

GWPCARE4
Start date: April 28, 2015
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the efficacy of GWP42003-P as adjunctive treatment in reducing the number of drop seizures when compared with placebo, in participants with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS).
