Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Summary of 28-day Seizure Frequency for Major Motor Seizure Types
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Summary of 28-day seizure frequency for Major Motor Seizure Types during the double-blind treatment period relative to the 6-week prospective baseline period Note: Summaries are based on the sum of the individual seizures, the countable seizures, and the clusters with uncountable seizures (each cluster with uncountable seizures counts as 1 seizure). Within the baseline and post baseline intervals, 28-day seizure frequency was calculated as the total number of seizures in the interval divided by the number of days with available seizure data in the interval, multiplied by 28. |
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Caregiver Global Impression of Change in Attention
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Caregiver global impression of change in attention during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo.
Investigators and caregivers reported improvements in attention, mood, behavior and sleep via investigator narratives
|
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Caregiver Global Impression of Change in Target Behavior
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Caregiver global impression of change in target behavior during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo.
Investigators and caregivers reported improvements in attention, mood, behavior and sleep via investigator narratives.
|
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Clinical Global Impression of Improvement - Parent/Caregiver
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Clinical global impression of improvement during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo.
The CGI is rated on a 7-point scale, with the severity of illness scale using a range of responses.
|
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Clinical Global Impression of Improvement - Clinician
Time Frame: [Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period]
|
Clinical global impression of improvement during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo
|
[Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period]
|
Percentage of Seizure-free Days for Major Motor Seizure Types
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Percentage of Seizure-free Days for Major Motor Seizure types during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo.
The major motor seizure types include bilateral tonic (sustained motor activity = 3 seconds), generalized tonic-clonic, atonic/drop, bilateral clonic, and focal to bilateral tonic-clonic.
|
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Arithmetic Change in Longest Seizure Free Interval, Based on Primary Seizure Types
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Arithmetic change in longest seizure free interval, based on primary seizure types during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo
|
End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Caregiver Global Impression of Change in Seizure Intensity and Duration
Time Frame: End of the double-blind 17 week treatment period
|
Caregiver global impression of change in seizure intensity and duration during the double-blind treatment period of ganaxolone compared to placebo.
CGI-C is a 7 point scale that requires the clinician to assess how much the patient's illness has improved or worsened relative to a baseline state at the beginning of the intervention.
