Efficacy and Safety of Eslicarbazepine Acetate as Adjunctive Therapy for Refractory Partial Epilepsy

Partial Epilepsy Clinical Trial

Official title:
Efficacy and Safety of BIA 2-093 as Adjunctive Therapy for Refractory Partial Seizures in a Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multicenter Clinical Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective was to evaluate the efficacy of eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL) administered once daily at 1200 mg or 800 mg, compared with placebo as adjunctive therapy in patients with refractory partial epilepsy over a 12-week maintenance period.

Clinical Trial Description

This was a phase III, 2-part multicenter study. Part I was an 26-week parallel-group, randomized, placebo-controlled design consisting of an 8 week baseline period, a 2 week double-blinded titration period, 12 week maintenance period, and a 4 week tapering-off period. After completing the baseline period, patients were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to 1 of the 2 ESL daily dose levels (1200 or 800 mg) or placebo.

Part II was a 1-year open-label extension for patients who had completed Part I. Starting at 800 mg/day, the dosage could be titrated at 400 mg intervals down to a minimum of 400 mg/day or up to a maximum of 1200 mg/day. Patients who completed Part II could participate in a study extension and continue treatment with ESL until marketing authorization is obtained or clinical development is discontinued, with visits scheduled at the discretion of the investigator but at least every 6 months.

Results from Part I & II were presented in two separate reports. ;
