Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary efficacy endpoint to be evaluated for registration in the United States and the Rest of the World is the percent reduction from the pretreatment baseline phase in seizure frequency (average monthly seizure rate per 28 days) of all simple partial motor, complex partial, or secondarilygeneralized seizures relative to the double-blind treatment phase. The primary efficacy endpoint to be evaluated for registration in the countries of Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa is the responder rate.;Secondary Objective: - Percent reduction in seizure frequency (average monthly seizure rate per 28 days) of all simple partial motor, complex partial, or secondarily generalized seizures during the double-blind treatment phase relative to the pretreatment baseline phase (only for registration in the countries of Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa). - Change relative to baseline in the Recovery (after seizures) composite score of the SSQ compared to the end of the double-blind treatment phase. - Changes in overall and subscale scores of various outcome scales.;Primary end point(s): Change in frequency of partial onset seizures during the pre-treatment baseline phase and during the double-blind treatment phase. Subject diaries will be the source of all seizure data.
