Filter by:The purpose is to assess the safety of Lacosamide in subjects with uncontrolled Primary Generalized Tonic-Clonic (PGTC) seizures with Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy.
Dexmedetomidine is an alpha-2 agonist commonly used during neurosurgery due to its unique properties as a sedative and anxiolytic with minimal respiratory depression. Neurosurgical patients frequently come to the operating room on anticonvulsant therapy with a history of seizures. The investigators clinical experience suggests that these patients are resistant to the sedative effects of dexmedetomidine. This effect may represent a pharmacokinetic interaction between the anticonvulsant medications and dexmedetomidine or the higher dexmedetomidine dose requirement could result from abnormal pharmacodynamics due to the underlying seizure disorder. The investigators study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic differences of dexmedetomidine between patients receiving and not receiving enzyme-inducing anticonvulsant therapy and to identify a potential mechanism for these differences.
This multi-center, two-treatment study compares the pharmacokinetic profiles of Immediate Release (IR) and Modified Release (MR) formulations of Topiramate (TPM) in patients with epilepsy.
The purpose of this study is to systematically and prospectively collect data from patients with partial-onset seizures in routine clinical practice setting receiving adjunctive Vimpat®. The observed population will be only patients with one baseline antiepileptic drug. Seizure control and tolerability data will be evaluated.
This is an 18-week, double-blind, multicenter study with gradual conversion from previous antiepileptic therapy to eslicarbazepine acetate monotherapy in subjects with partial epilepsy.
Multicenter prospective study comparing the diagnosis value of high-resolution EEG and depth-EEG to localize the epileptogenic zone in drug resistant partial epilepsies.
The aim of the observational study is to investigate the safety of oxcarbazepine extended release (ER) during long-term therapy in epileptic patients. In addition, quality of life parameters should be documented if assessed.
This will be a cross-sectional study enrolling 200 outpatients/inpatients with treatment resistant partial epilepsy for at least two years, receiving 1-3 AEDS. The study will consist of one or two visits, each lasting 1-2 hours. All subjects will complete Visit 1. Twenty five percent of the subjects will return for Visit 2. The study will assess the prevalence of depression and suicidal thoughts and the feasibility of using the proposed psychiatric rating scales in future epilepsy clinical trials. This study will also provide an estimate of the proportion of patients with epilepsy (PWE) who may be ineligible for future trials.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and steady-state pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) Carbamazepine (CBZ) infusions relative to orally administered CBZ in adult patients with epilepsy.
The goal of this study is to learn if the study drug RAD001 can reduced the number of epileptic seizures, and can be taken safety by people who have epilepsy associated with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex.
