Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Percent reduction in seizure frequency (average monthly seizure rate per 28 days) of all simple partial motor and/or complex partial, and/or secondarily generalized seizures during the double-blind treatment phase, relative to the pre-treatment phase.;Secondary Objective: - Proportion of subjects with > 50% reduction from the pre-treatment baseline phase in seizure frequency. - 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. | — |
