Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the effect of 2 drug regimens consisting of either rufinamide or any other approved AED of the investigator’s choice as an add-on to the subject’s existing regimen of 1-3 AEDs on the overall safety and tolerability of rufinamide in subjects aged 1 to less than 4 years of age with inadequately controlled LGS To characterize the age group specific pharmacokinetics of rufinamide in a pediatric population, 1 to less than 4 years of age, with inadequately controlled LGS, using the population approach To evaluate the effect of rufinamide as adjunctive treatment on the cognitive development and behavioral effects in a pediatric population, 1 to less than 4 years of age, with inadequately controlled LGS.;Secondary Objective: N/A;Primary end point(s): Primary efficacy variable: Change from baseline in CBCL Total Problems Score to the end of the 2-year (106 weeks) treatment period;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline to end of 2 year treatment period. Physical and neurological examinations (the latter only if possible) will be performed at screening, baseline, Visits 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 12, 13, 14, and follow up/final visit.
