Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Percent Change in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure (PS) Frequency From Baseline (BL) to the End of the Double-blind (DB) Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases)

    28-day total PS (PSs \[also called focal seizures\] are seizures limited to a specific area of the brain) frequency in the BL period = (Number \[No.\] of total PSs reported in the BL period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the BL period) x 28 days. 28-day total PS frequency in the DB period = (No. of total PSs reported in the DB period divided by the No. of days of available total PS data in the DB period) x 28 days. Percent change = (\[value in the DB period minus value at BL\] divided by the BL value) x 100%. Negative values indicate a reduction in seizure frequency.

    Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 1 through Week 18

  • Number of Participants Who Were Responders and Non-responders in the Maintenance Phase

    Responders were participants with at least a 50% reduction in the 28-day total partial seizure frequency in the Maintenance Phase as compared to the Baseline period.

    Week 7 through Week 18

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • Number of Participants Who Were Responders and Non-responders in the DB Phase

    Week 1 through Week 18

  • Percent Change From Baseline (BL) in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency During the Maintenance Phase

    Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 7 through Week 18

  • Number of Participants With a Reduction in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency From Baseline to the End of DB Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases) by Indicated Quartile Reduction Categories

    Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 1 through Week 18

  • Number of Participants With a Reduction in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency From Baseline to the End of the DB Phase (Titration and Maintenance Phases) by Indicated Decile Reduction and Increase Categories

    Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 1 through Week 18

  • Number of Participants With the Indicated Reduction From Baseline in the 28-day Total Partial Seizure Frequency During the Maintenance Phase

    Baseline (Week -7 through Week 0), Week 7 through Week 18

  • +13 more secondary outcomes
