Safety and Efficacy of Eslicarbazepine Acetate Monotherapy in Subjects With Partial Epilepsy Not Well Controlled by Current Antiepileptic Drugs

February 9, 2016 updated by: Sunovion

Double-Blind, Randomized, Historical Control Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Eslicarbazepine Acetate Monotherapy in Subjects With Partial Epilepsy Not Well Controlled by Current Antiepileptic Drugs

This is an 18-week, double-blind, multicenter study with gradual conversion from previous antiepileptic therapy to eslicarbazepine acetate monotherapy in subjects with partial epilepsy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is an 18-week, double-blind, randomized, historical control, multicenter study with gradual conversion to monotherapy in subjects with partial onset seizures who are not well controlled by current AEDs. The 18 week double-blind treatment period consists of a 2-week period for titration of study drug, 6-week period for taper or conversion off AEDs, and a 10-week monotherapy period. Subjects not entering an optional open-label extension study will enter a 1-week period to taper off study drug followed by an end of study visit (week 19). This study was previously posted by Sepracor Inc. In October 2009, Sepracor Inc. was acquired by Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma., and in October 2010, Sepracor Inc's name was changed to Sunovion Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cumulative 112-day Exit Rate as Estimated by Kaplan-Meier Method
Time Frame: Week 3 to Week 18
Cumulative exit rate was defined as the proportion of subjects meeting at least one of the five exit criteria over a 16-wk study period (start of Antiepilectic Drugs(AED) taper/conv.period (Wk 3 to end of double blind monotherapy period (Wk 18)):1.One episode of status epilepticus.2.One secondary general partial seizure (in subjects who did not have gen. seizures during 6 months prior to screening).3.A two fold increase in any consecutive 28 day seizure rate compared to the highest consecutive 28 day seizure rate during the 8 wk baseline period. 4.A two fold increase in any consecutive 2 day seizure rate compared to the highest consecutive 2 day seizure rate during the 8 wk baseline period. If the highest number of seizures in any consecutive 2 day period during the 8 wk baseline was 1 then 3 seizures in a consecutive 2 day period was required to exit.5.Worsening of seizures or increase in seizure frequency considered serious or requiring intervention as judged by the Investigator.
Week 3 to Week 18

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time on Eslicarbazepine Acetate Monotherapy.
Time Frame: Week 8 to Week 18
The start of the monotherapy period was defined as the date of termination of all other AEDs while taking study monotherapy medication. Time on monotherapy was defined from the start of monotherapy period to the last dose of monotherapy treatment.
Week 8 to Week 18
Proportion (%) of Events in Each Classification of the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C SSRS).
Time Frame: 18 Week Double-blind treatment period
18 Week Double-blind treatment period
Percentage of Subjects That Are Seizure-free During the 10-week Double-blind Monotherapy Treatment Period.
Time Frame: Weeks 9 through 18
Seizure-free subjects during the monotherapy period were determined as subjects who had seizure assessments during the monotherapy period, and did not have any seizures in the 10 weeks between Visits 6 and 9 (Weeks 9 through 18). Subjects who discontinued during this period were considered not seizure-free even if they were seizure-free at the time of discontinuation, i.e., to be considered seizure-free, subjects must complete the 10-week period without any seizures.
Weeks 9 through 18
Percentage of Subjects Seizure-free During the Last 4 Weeks on Eslicarbazepine Acetate Monotherapy.
Time Frame: Weeks 15 through 18
Seizure-free subjects during the last four weeks of monotherapy were determined as subjects who had seizure assessments during the 4 weeks between Visits 8 and 9 (Weeks 15 through 18), and did not have any seizures.
Weeks 15 through 18
Completion Rate
Time Frame: Week 1 to Week 18
Subjects completing the study were determined as subjects who completed the 18 weeks of double-blind treatment.

If the highest number of seizures in any consecutive 2 day period during the 8 wk baseline was 1 then 3 seizures in a consecutive 2 day period was required to exit.5.Worsening of seizures or increase in seizure frequency considered serious or requiring intervention as judged by the Investigator.
Week 1 to Week 18
Change in Total Score From Baseline in 31-Item Quality of Life in Epilepsy (QOLIE-31).
Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 18, baseline: day 0: End of AED taper/conversion period: end of week 8; End of monotherapy period: end of week 18
The QOLIE-31 overall score was obtained by using a weighted average of multi-item scale scores. The recorded responses were converted to 0-100 point scales. The mean of the individual item scores in each subgroup were calculated, with higher converted scores reflecting better quality of life.
