  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • The patient's parent or legally authorized representative is able to read and understand the Patient Information Sheet and Informed Consent Form.
  • The patient's legally authorized representative has signed the Informed Consent Form.
  • The patient has IS, diagnosed according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria.
  • The patient is a full term (38 weeks gestation) male or female, aged >=1 month to <6 months at the time of enrollment.
  • The patient's length and body weight for gestational age is >=5th and <=95th percentile, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Growth Charts.

Who cannot join

  • The patient is currently being treated or has been previously treated with vigabatrin.
  • The patient is a member of the site personnel's immediate family.
  • The patient takes or has taken disallowed recent or concomitant medication or it is anticipated that the patient will require treatment with at least one of the disallowed concomitant medications during the study.
  • The patient has a history of severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity, or known hypersensitivity to the investigational medicinal product (IMP) or the excipients (povodone/iodine) of the IMP.
  • The patient has any other disorder for which the treatment takes priority over treatment of IS or is likely to interfere with study treatment or impair treatment compliance.
  • The patient has been treated with any IMP within 30 days or 5 half lives (whichever is longer) prior to the Screening Visit.

  • The patient has a disease or takes medication that could, in the investigator's opinion, interfere with the assessments of safety, tolerability, or efficacy, or interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study.
  • The patient has been diagnosed or is judged by the investigator to have anemia.
  • The patient has been diagnosed or is judged by the investigator to have renal insufficiency.
  • The patient's parent or legally authorized representative is, in the investigator's opinion, unlikely or unwilling to comply with the protocol or the patient is unsuitable for any reason.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • VigabatrinDrug

    Also called Sabril®

    Oral vigabatrin as a single 25 mg/kg dose on Days 1 and 5, 25 mg/kg twice a day (50 mg/kg daily dose, orally) on Days 2-4

What is being measured

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

  1. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic profile of vigabatrin after oral administrations in infants(>=1 and <6 months of age)

    Serial blood for plasma generation will be collected on Days 1 and 5 and vigabatrin concenrations determined to the determine the pharmacokinetic profile of vigabatrin

    Measured: 24 hrs post dose on Day 1 and 12 hrs post dose on Day 5

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine the safety of vigabatrin following oral dose administrations in infants (>=1 and <6 months of age)

    Safety and tolerability parameters such as adverse events, clinical safety laboratory tests and vital signs will be summarised using descriptive statistics

    Measured: Safety collected throughout the 5-day study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Vigabatrin in people with Infantile Spasms, run by Lundbeck LLC.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic profile of vigabatrin after oral administrations in infants(>=1 and <6 months of age) (time frame: 24 hrs post dose on Day 1 and 12 hrs post dose on Day 5). 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 13 Sep 2012.
