What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Subjects on Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy at Any Time Between Visit 1 and End of Study

    Percentage of Subjects on Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy at any time between Visit 1 and End of Study.

    Measured: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years)

  2. Duration of Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy Treatment From Visit 1 to End of Study

    Duration of total Lacosamide Monotherapy From Visit 1 to End of Study.

    Measured: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Occurrence of At Least One Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) From Visit 1 to End of Study

    A TEAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence (eg, noxious or pathological changes) in a subject or clinical investigation subject compared with pre-existing conditions, that occurs during any phase of a clinical trial including Pretreatment, Run-In, Wash-Out, or Follow-Up Phases.

    An TEAE is defined as being independent of assumption of any causality (eg, to trial or concomitant medication, primary or concomitant disease, or trial design).

    Measured: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years)

  2. Occurrence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) Leading to Subject Withdrawal From Visit 1 to End of Study

    Measured: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lacosamide in people with Epilepsy, run by UCB Pharma at 108 sites in 9 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 108 sites in United States, Poland, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom and 4 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jun 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Subjects on Lacosamide (LCM) Monotherapy at Any Time Between Visit 1 and End of Study (time frame: From Visit 1 to End of Study (approximately 2 years)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jul 2018.
