Percent Change From Baseline in 28 Day Partial Seizure Rate During Treatment Observation Phase |
28-day seizure rate (at observation period [obs]) = [(number of seizures obs ) divided by (duration of period based on observed last dosing date and Visit 3 [Week 9] date)] * 28. Percent change = [(28-day seizure rate obs minus 28-day seizure rate at baseline [b]) divided by 28-day seizure rate b] * 100. Negative values indicate a decrease in seizure frequency and positive values reflect an increase in seizure frequency. |
Week 9 to Week 21 or End of Treatment (early termination) |
|
Secondary |
Response Ratio (RR) |
Response ratio (RR) = comparison between baseline 28-seizure frequency with the 12 week observation phase. RR = [(28-day seizure rate in observation period [obs] minus 28-day seizure rate at baseline [b] ) divided by (28-day seizure rate obs plus 28-day seizure rate b)] * 100. Range: -100 to 100; negative values for the RR indicate reductions in seizures. |
Week 9 to Week 21 or End of Treatment (early termination) |
|
Secondary |
Percent Change From Baseline in 28-Day Partial Seizure Frequency at Week 21 |
Percent change from Baseline = [(28-day seizure rate at 21 weeks minus 28-day seizure rate at baseline [b]) divided by (28-day seizure rate b) * 100. Negative values indicate a decrease in seizure frequency, positive values reflect an increase in seizure frequency. |
Week 21 or End of Treatment (early termination) |
|
Secondary |
Percent Change From Baseline in Seizure Frequency in Participants Who Had <=6 Seizures and >6 Seizures During the Baseline Period |
Negative values indicate a decrease in seizure frequency; positive values reflect an increase in seizure frequency. |
Week 9 to Week 21 or End of Treatment (early termination) |
|
Secondary |
Percent of Seizure- Free Participants During the Treatment Observation Period |
Seizure-free = no seizures during observation period (100 percent reduction in seizures from baseline). |
Week 9 to Week 21 or Early Termination (end of treatment) |
|
Secondary |
Percent of Seizure Free Participants During the Last 4 Weeks of the Treatment Observation Period |
Seizure-free = no seizures during last 4 weeks of observation period (100 percent reduction in seizures from baseline). |
Week 17 to Week 21 (or Last 4 Weeks of Treatment after Week 9) |
|
Secondary |
Percent of Participants With >=50% Reduction in Seizure Frequency (28-day Seizure Rate) Between Baseline and Final 4 Weeks of the Treatment Observation Period |
|
Week 17 to Week 21 (or Last 4 Weeks of Treatment after Week 9) |
|
Secondary |
Percent of Participants With >=75% Reduction in Seizure Frequency (28-day Seizure Rate) Between Baseline and Final 4 Weeks of the Treatment Observation Period |
|
Week 17 through Week 21 (or Last 4 Weeks of Treatment after Week 9) |
|
Secondary |
Treatment Satisfaction: Patient General Impression to Change (PGIC) |
Patient General Impression to Change (PGIC): participant rated instrument to measure participant's change in overall status since beginning study medication on a 7-point scale; range: 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Not done = participant did not complete the PGIC. |

Change From Baseline in Sleep Interference: Medical Outcome Sleep Scale (MOS) |
Participant rated questionnaire to assess sleep quality and quantity; 9-item overall sleep problems index and 7 subscales. Sleep disturbance, snoring, awaken short of breath, somnolence, and adequacy subscale scores (s) rated 1 (all the time) to 6 (none of the time); transformed s; total range (r): 0 to 100; higher s = greater intensity of attribute; negative values (v) = reduction from baseline (b), positive v = increase from b. Sleep Quantity score r: 0-24 hours. Higher s = greater quantity of sleep. Change = (MOS score at observation period minus MOS score at b) divided by MOS score b. |
Week 21, LOCF |
|
Secondary |
Change From Baseline in Sleep Interference: Medical Outcome Sleep Scale (MOS): Optimal Sleep Subscale |
Optimal Sleep subscale of the MOS subject rated questionnaire to assess sleep quality and quantity. Optimal Sleep (1 of 7 subscales) was derived from sleep quantity: average hours of sleep each night during the past week. Number of subjects with response: YES=1 (optimal sleep: quantity of sleep was 7 or 8 hours per night) or No= 0 (no optimal sleep). Negative value indicates a decrease in attribute; positive value indicates an increase in attribute. Change = (MOS score at observation period minus MOS score at baseline [b]) divided by MOS score b. |
Week 21, LOCF |
|
Secondary |
Change From Baseline in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) |
Participant rated questionnaire with 2 subscales: HADS-A assesses generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks); HADS-D: state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). Each subscale has 7 items; range: 0 (no anxiety or depression) to 3 (severe anxiety or depression). Total score 0 to 21 for each subscale; higher score = greater severity of symptoms. Negative value = reduction from baseline (b), positive value = increase from b. Change = (HADS score at observation period minus HADS score at b) divided by HADS score b. |
