NCT ID: NCT05610085 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

A Dose Escalation Study of Levetiracetam in the Treatment of Neonatal Seizures

NEOLEV3
Start date: March 24, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The main purpose of this study is to determine the maximum safe tolerated dose of LEV in the treatment of neonatal seizures. Our hypothesis is that optimal dosing of Levetiracetam (LEV) to treat neonatal seizures is significantly greater than 60mg/kg. This study will be an open label dose-escalation, preliminary safety and efficacy study. There will be a randomized control treatment component. Infants recognized as having neonatal seizures or as being at risk of developing seizures will be recruited and started on continuous video EEG monitoring (CEEG). Eligibility will be confirmed and consent will be obtained. In the first 2 phases of the study, neurologists will identify neonates with mild-moderate seizure burden (less than 8 minutes cumulative seizure activity per hour), appropriate for study with LEV, and exclude patients with higher seizure burden where treatment with PHB is more appropriate. Phase 3 of the dose escalation will only proceed if additional efficacy of LEV has been demonstrated in phases 1 and 2. In Phase 3 we will recruit neonates with seizures of greater severity up to 30 minute seizure burden/hour. This will make the final results of study more generalizable. If seizures are confirmed, enrolled subjects will receive 60mg/kg of LEV. Subjects whose seizures persist or recur 15 minutes after the first infusion is complete, subjects will then be randomized in the dose escalation study. Patients in the dose escalation study will be randomly assigned to receive either higher dose LEV or treatment with the control drug PHB in a 3:1 allocation ratio, stratified by site.

NCT ID: NCT03934268 Recruiting - Seizures Clinical Trials

A Cohort Study on the Prognosis of Neonatal KCNQ2 Gene-associated Epileptic Encephalopathy

Start date: January 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The researchers hope to explore the etiological distribution and influencing factors of KCNQ2-related neonatal convulsions or refractory epileptic encephalopathy, and to improve the level of assessment, identification, intervention and shunt of KCNQ2-related convulsions. To formulate countermeasures and measures for prevention, management and health education.

NCT ID: NCT03822741 Recruiting - Seizures Clinical Trials

Etiology and Treatment of Neonatal Seizure

Start date: August 8, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Genetic diagnosis for neonates suffering from epilepsy has important implications for treatment, prognosis, and development of precision medicine strategies. Investigator performed exome sequencing (ES) or targeted sequencing on neonates with seizure onset within the first month of life. Investigator subgrouped our patients based on the onset age of seizure into neonatal and before 1 year (1-12 months), to compare the clinical and genetic features and treatment strategies.
