Filter by:To investigate the potential antiepileptic effects of cannabidiol (GWP42003-P) in children and adults with Dravet or Lennox-Gastaut syndromes.
The primary objective of this study was 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).
The sponsor is developing a new paediatric formulation of vigabatrin to better adjust the dose to body weight and to limit waste of unused drug. The currently marketed vigabatrin (Sabril™) form only exists as 500 mg film coated tablets (for adults and children above 6 years) and 500 mg granules for oral solution sachets (for infants and children below 6 years). Sabril™ is not adapted for administration to infants when a fraction of the sachet is needed. Manual splitting of the sachet or lengthy and error-prone dilutions are often required. This study is a descriptive, non-randomized, open label multi-centric acceptability study in infants and children affected with infantile spasms. The primary objective is to describe the adherence to the new formulation. Secondary objectives include: - evaluation of the palatability and user-friendliness of the new treatment, - evaluation of the pharmacokinetic parameters of the new formulation, - PK parameters, - evaluation of the tolerance, - measurement of taurine plasma levels. This study will recruit up to 40 patients with infantile spasms and pharmacoresistant partial epilepsy aged 1 month to 6 years in 23 clinical sites in France.
The investigators will conduct a prospective observational cohort study to investigate factors that influence contraceptive method utilization among women with medical conditions. The investigators will also investigate how women with medical conditions access to contraception and family planning fellowship trained specialist. After the baseline questionnaire, there be a 3 month and 6 month follow up questionnaire to investigate continuation and satisfaction with the contraceptive method. This study is unique because it will allow us to explore doing collaborative family planning research at the multiple UC medical campuses.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of topiramate monotherapy compared with levetiracetam another standard antiepileptic drug (AED), as monotherapy for new-onset or recent-onset epilepsy (seizure disorder) on pediatric growth and maturation, bone mineralization, and kidney stone formation in children aged 2 to 15 years.
This study aims to determine the safety and effectiveness of oral melatonin as natural inducer of sleep to acquire useful EEGs in South African children following its introduction as the main agent used in the Neurophysiology department at Red Cross Children's Hospital. This is an observational retrospective study.
A prospective exploratory study in patients with drug resistant epilepsy with a target comparison of long term outcome. NeuroScan software modules and a MagLink will be used to acquire EEG in combination with MRI/fMRI data. The MagLink system is used for obtaining integrated EEG and Event Related Potential (ERP) recordings while the subject is inside the MRI machine, without compromising the raw EEG data.
EP0024 is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intravenous (iv) lacosamide (LCM). Adjunctive iv LCM therapy (200 mg/day to 400 mg/day) will be administered for 5 days as replacement for oral LCM tablets in Japanese adults with partial-onset seizures.
This study will assess whether a movement detecting wristwatch can accurately detect seizures and seizure characteristics and record them into an online epilepsy diary. The patients may manually record a description into the online epilepsy diary of the symptoms they experienced before, during or after the seizure.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of multiple-dose administration of BIA 2-093 on the steady-state pharmacokinetics of digoxin in healthy subjects.
